Are there new session timings?
Hey all,
So 29th March's session apparently started at 22:50 IST (according to the Steam announcement), two hours before usual.
Now, I believe DST is in effect in the UK, so that puts FA HQ at +1 GMT, but that should correspond to 23:50 for me.
Does that mean the FA session started at 18:20 UK time? If so, is this the new time or was it just a one-off change?
I would have used Skype to clarify this but it seems to be the biggest PITA since...the last biggest PITA.
Cheers!

That might have been the pre-session workshop maybe?

That started at 22:00, instead of the usual midnight. Everything was 2 hours earlier!Sparks wrote:That might have been the pre-session workshop maybe?

Re: Are there new session timings?
I know, hence my confusion. The Steam announcement was for 22:50 instead of 23:50, and the workshop was for 22:00 instead of 23:00.Kefirz wrote:According to this: http://www.worldtimezone.com/

Before DST/BST kicked in, it used to be 00:50 for sessions and 00:00 for workshops.
Did audiox accidentally set the Steam event an hour earlier or something?

Re: Are there new session timings?
Was the steam event early, or was the session itself early?
If just steam, then it's probably human error. If it's the actual session, then I believe you're facing some sort of temporal vortex. Unfortunately, I don't think the Party has standardized procedures to deal with temporal vortices.
(Unlike human error. We can deal with human error

I couldn't attend, but I checked at around 23:55 and everyone was chilling in Team Speak's dead/limbo channel...didn't want to disturb slotting or anything so I just logged off...of course, doing that didn't really help clear any confusion on my end.
Anyway, I'm clear about what's happened now

Thanks!
