For example if it was tick 115 and you said all meet here to launch at PT 123 we all know that we have to meet in 8 hours time. When its done on normal time we instead have to convert a meeting time of something like 10CEST into local time which can be alot harder which is shown every round when people turn up an hour late for attacks due to messing the conversion up.
once a standard is set, cest/gmt/whatever.. everyone knows the conversion they have to make to work out what time that corresponds to where they are. u only have to work it out once ever and ure sorted. with PT's u are constantly gonna be counting on ure fingers. not to mention the fact that ppl who like to launch just before the tick will be guessin on what time it is..
