Timezone request thread


AndrewPH time for dominate Thu Dec 5 at 2:06:16 (2013)

Format (You can copy/paste this and insert your own values.)

**Timezone Name:** [name]

**Timezone Location:** [location]

**Current Time:** 23:45

**Current Date:** December 32rd 2013

**UTC Offset:** UTC-3

Important - Please only post current time in 24 hour time. This means you do not use AM/PM identifiers.

I'll be adding timezones to the list as we go on. You will be able to change your current timezone using the account panel. Timezones will affect forum post timestamps, and anything else that may be applicable to real time.

Thanks, added those with some descriptive names. If I messed something up, let me know.

I'll include GMT offsets at some point, as well.

[edit]

To make things easier on myself, I've made the site's backend calculate time based on UTC. You now must post a UTC offset along with your post.

Never in my life have I seen the Eastern Time Zone just be called Eastern Time or ET.

The timezone is Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5:00) from late Fall to extremely late Winter, and Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4:00) the rest of the year.

Daylight savings Timezones are considered different from standard Timezones, also. I'll be working on detection of dst later.

It was hidden because it was A: already added (gmt+1 = utc+1) and B: did not follow the example.

US Eastern Time is UTC-5 - UTC-3 is used in greenland, a small part of canada, and a small part of south america, as well as a few other places.

If you wish to post again with a more accurate timezone name or UTC offset, go for it

...

Current Time: 23:45

You mean

Current Time: 20:11

Even so, AEST is standard time, but as it seems most of australia at this time is currently on Daylight Saving Time, If I'm not mistaken making it 21:11

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Ah yep. I didn't make it daylight savings because it doesn't really bother me if it's 1 hour behind, so long as the timezone is related unless you would be willing to add both daylight savings time and non-daylight savings?

I'll probably be adding a DST setting sooner or later. I just need to make sure that no places still use 30-minute DST or 2-hour DST.
