UT2004 Session April 2017

2PM EST

Just like the previous time, using EST instead of EDT (which is currently in use) is asking for trouble.

IMHO the best way to ensure that there will be no misunderstanding among your worldwide fanbase is to always announce time in UTC.

As far as I understand, in this current case "2PM EST" means 18:00 UTC, even though I may be mistaken.

Yeah, UTC is almost always better when trying to get international groups together.

Maybe Ross just hates DST. I do.

Anyway, I second previous comments — using UTC would be much more convenient. I, for one, had no idea what EST was and had to look it up (then I forgot and had to look it up again), but almost everyone knows by how much their local time is offset in relation to UTC. That's called "time zone".

There's a few variants, but unseen_dead_turtle is from the worst critical fumble in Lord of the Rings RPG. "Stumble over an unseen imaginary deceased turtle. You are very confused. Stunned 3 rounds."

I didn't get to play Zombie Panic last time and would like a chance at that.
