FAO: Ryauo and tears

[Yurka]

Just to sort out the adjustments for the raid start times,

Ryauo change your BST/CET to the sametime (as they are the sametime)

Then once thats done, ill change mine to co-inside and let tears know what to change them to.

BST is NOT CET.

BST is GMT+1, CET is GMT+2.

SO:

10:00 GMT
11:00 BST
12:00 CET

BST = british summer time (+1 hour). GMT is NOT uk time. It never moves.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[Ryuno]

wrong CET is GMT+1

Check the links i posted above. That proves to you im right.

 

[Yurka]

hmm, alot of sites seem to say different things.

ok CET is 2 hours ahead of GMT during the summer time, at which point for UK people its BST which is GMT+1, so CET is BST+1 = GMT +2.

In winter we (UK) go back to GMT, and CET moves back to GMT+1

 

[Ryuno]

Its a bit confusing. The reason is, because when the clocks go back, uk time WILL be GMT. Thats why most people use GMT to mean uk time. Its only really confusing when in the summer.

Easiest way I remember it, is just forget GMT. I remember that CET is ALWAYS 1 hour ahead of uk time. I'm in the uk, so its easier to remember that (i just check my clock), but for other people it might not be.

All I say to the above is ..........


Wibble !!


My raids say "uk time" ask someone in game what the time is and figure out the difference hehe

 

[Mutoria]

every one moves goes one hour ahead in summer time who are on GMT, so even if its BST you could probably say GMT!

The canary islands just off the coast of africa use GMT all year round... thats why the UK cant just continue to use GMT in summer like europe can with CET. So we get BST canarys stay GMT and it goes all higgledi-pigglydi and confuses everyone

yaya thread bump :touch:
