Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

the clock they linked to on the app page says it's 8 pm in london, london is GMT+1 right now not just straight up GMT

godammit. why is time so hard? why can't you just... fucking...

i don't know what time anything is happening at.

same anon as above, but the page says 7pm for me.

picture as proof.

do you get a bunch of errors at the top of the page? on one computer i got the errors and it displayed plain GMT, on another i had no errors and it's GMT+1. it should say "current time in london", not just "current time in".

nope. the top says current time in london and shows me 7pm

i'm pst and it's normally -8 gmt, but with dst, it's -7, which means it's noon for me here and 7pm in london (gmt), and it'll be 5pm my time when reserves and apps open

but london is on GMT+1 right now

are they going by plain old GMT or london time, "london GMT" is a bit confusing

i think london or they wouldn't have specified london

hahaha this is hilarious. it's only adding to my alertness

the anon who linked the page here, but even that clock's not helping since it's showing different times for different people.

it does for me too, but if you google 'time in london' it says 8pm, so i think that's correct?

sigh

i google 'gmt time'

and it tells me it on the google page as 7pm

i psl with a british person and she's been 6 hours ahead of me lately but she's not on right now to ask

8:12 PM

Time in London, UK

is what i get in google. i think london GMT may be different from just GMT?

i am so fucking confused right now. i want to cry.

don't cry!!! we'll figure this out, anon

European clocks on Standard Time
until: Sunday 29 March 2015 01:00 GMT
then on Summer / Daylight Saving Time
until: Sunday 25 October 2015 01:00 GMT

so i think this means they're on british summer time (BST) right now, which is GMT +1

http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/europe/uk/england/london/ says it's 8:19pm there right now

i'm going to just go with that assumption and if i'm wrong, i'll just try again on the next hour

you guys are great. thanks for helping me out. and below anon is right, at least we'll all know for sure for apps.

np! hopefully it'll help out some other people who may be confused in the next few hours

at least all of us who arr paying attention to this for reserves will have no ambiguity about it for actual apps!

right? that would have been horrible

I'm in the UK and it's 8:17pm here.

The current timezone in London and the rest of the UK is GMT+1 at the moment, not GMT.

thank you! that's what i thought; i've mentally added 5 or 6 hours to my time to calculate my british rp friends' timezones for years, but i'm not familiar with the cutoff dates where things change
