In the Interests Of Informed Debate

It's just a pity you Europeans didn't have a worldwide maritime empire in the 19th Century...

But I guess with the EU and all that that soon we will have Brussels Standard Time imposed on us by the European Dictatorship (err... I mean Commission)

Well I've read the entire thread, but there's nothing quite like a batant example to support your case.

BUt as all satuff is TICK bassed and if the ticker stops time doesn't, all PA related events except tickstart must be PT
So why did it stay CEST when barrysworld hosted it, After all barrysworld is a UK firm whos servers were in the UK.


I personally dont think it feels right having the time in GMT...its always been CEST and it just feels less like PA in GMT

I´d like to have it CET. Not because CET owns GMT (how exactly can a timezone own another one), or because a larger percentage of the players are from the CET timezone (i dunno *where* most players are from and honestly, i don´t care).

Simply keep CET because i´m pretty much used to it, suppose that goes for many ppl. I´d like to have a poll on this, to let the community decide.
