Turn the clocks back people.

I would like to remind everyone to turn their clocks back one hour due to DST. Hopefully my team will change it.

Dangit! Two websites say two different things. Whatever, don't pay attention to anything I say.

Re: Turn the clocks back people.

You have it right, Clef.

The official post gives times in EST, in standard time. Not Daylight. Thus, if you don't roll the clock back, and you're not in Arizona, you'll be off by an hour.

Why they would post the times in Eastern Standard when all of Eastern is using Daylight is beyond me.

That's a pet peeve of mine, too. Either get the timezone correct, or just say "2200 Eastern time" if you're unsure whether or not it's standard or daylight! Don't inject confusion into the mix...

Re: Turn the clocks back people.

Yeah, but you'll have to deal with it for the tournament, since it'll still be shifted a literal hour.
