I've noticed that the clock in the shoutbox which usually shows local time, is in fact 1 hour out, presumably it'd forgotten to change the clock forward!

Edit - also the forum posts are also showing the 'old' time.

Also seems to be some inconsistency in the Games List as well, some hosts games appear to be an hour out from their intended time, but others are as they were (and all are UK hosts).

Under your profile what is your timezone showing as? Profile Page

Mine is showing as "Timezone:
Europe/London (current offset from server time: 01:00:00) (edit)"

And all times are correctly shown as in BST.

Thanks Karl,

Interesting, mine is showing as London but with 00:00:00 offset. I'll see if I can change it.

I have the forum timezone set to Europe/Amsterdam, and somehow I am seeing the real time on forum posts and shouts (after refreshing the page as new shouts appear in GMT.)

However start times of games are off by an hour for me - at least for Andy's games that were entered before the clock changed. And more people seem to be confused about the KX 1955 game that is up now, which is displaying a start time 20 minutes in the future for me and hasn't yet started.

(EDIT: Karl already asked about the timezone while I was writing.)

Oddly refreshing the setting in Windows time/date (i.e. clicking them again, not actually changing anything) has rectified it, although everything in my games list is now 1 second out (e.g. 18:29:59 instead of 18:30:00 - no big deal though).

Would seem that since rectifying my clock issue I have now joined the 'one second out club'. I guess theres worse that could have happened!!

If you set your timezone offset right, you can see other people's posts before they've written them.

Interesting you should say that as I had an issue earlier where I replied to a post on another thread but the reply ended up showing above the post I was replying to.

My Timezone is showing: Africa/Abidjan (current offset from server time: 00:00:00) (edit)

Seems to be about the right Longitude but a bit odd though.

Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate.
