    Pacific
    Mountain
    Central
    Est
    Atlantic

    Right now it's 14:29 Atlantic, so 13:29 Est, 12:29 Central, 11:29 Mountain & 10:29 Pacific. My bet is that right now it's 18:29 GMT since it's shows Atlantic -4:00 in my Timezone compared to GMT.. but I'm not sure
    If you are observing daylight savings time currently, and you are in Atlantic Timezone then you will be GMT -3:00.

    BTW, EST = Eastern Standard Time. EDT = Eastern Daylight Time. Most people in the Eastern timezone are on EDT, not EST currently. Same goes for lots of other timezones.

      ok, let's say it so - 5pm NY time (10 pm in London). This will avoid the daylight correction.

        Now - 22:00 in London (ormuzd), or 22:00 GMT (Makahlua) ? Those are actually two different things.

          The unix standard is looking pretty good right about now. So what's the final time and place (undernet/apolyton)?

              Actually, no. London is GMT +1.

              If New York is at -4 right now, we have:

              EDT New York 17:00
              GMT 21:00
              BST London 22:00
              CEST Berlin/Paris 23:00

              Does this help?

                Actually I'm in East Europe (guess the country ) but I'm not sure what will happen if I said 23:00 CET. Maybe there will be started another discussion about the daylight saving times and the names of the time zones

                    *points at BFM's post*

                    What he said

                    #civ3dem, Undernet for the people who have trouble with 'Poly

                    edit: This should help too:

                    Choose your locations and show current local time with links to each city with extensive info on time, weather, Daylight Saving Time, sunrise, sunset and moon phases.


                    And considering the amount of confusion we've had on it, perhaps move this chat Tues or Thurs? I also think we may need more discussion on the city sites in dispute.

                        Can I just suggest that when a time is decided upon, the Prez may want to edit the top post and add in the time, date and roomname in bold? That would help all of us, I think.
