unfortunately it's down over an hour past the eta for it to be back up...

Uh, did I miss something? Like when they moved Paris? Last time I checked, Paris time was the same time zone as British time, thus GMT/UTC/BST, depending on the time of year. Of course, that's dependant on how France works their Daylighrt Savings, but it shouldn't be two hours out, surely?

Well, looks like it should be over now =P Off to see if I can play!

As fadin clearly stated in the post right above mine (did you see it?) 4 - 8 AM EDT.

Fadin's comment "Please, no debates on time conversion." reminded me of a friendly disagreement he and I had quite some time ago about whether it's better to use GMT or UTC to label meridian time and the fact that every time he announced a time in Klients certain parties always wanted to know the times using GMT/UTC. I simply could not resist throwing that statement out there.

Quick time chart for NA (US specifically) players:

Daylight Savings Times
+2 Paris
+1 London
+0 GMT/UTC
-1
-2
-3
-4 Eastern
-5 Central
-6 Mountain
-7 Pacific

So if the time is 14:00 Paris you can figure your local time like this: 14 - 2 + your time zone. So, Central would be 14 -2 -5 or 7:00

Standar Times
+1 Paris
+0 GMT/UTC/London
-1
-2
-3
-4
-5 Eastern
-6 Central
-7 Mountain
-8 Pacific

As I have probably muddied the waters a bit here...check this page for an online utility which will do time conversion for you http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc or look here for times in major cities world wide. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/full.html

Better check again Paris is one hour ahead of London (see http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/full.html)

Uk (and Portugal) has always been 1 hour behind the rest of Europe. Daylight saving are made at the same time everywhere in the EU.

Gah, you're right. I knew there was a reason I changed from Geography to Sociology in school =P My bad.
