Time Change tonight... posting NB ads?! D=

Submitted by _jaspeh_ on Sat, 31/10/2009 - 8:47pm
Random question, but I was just thinking about how the time change might affect posting the NB ads tonight. Should we post at midnight? Or does the clock go back from 11:59:59 to 11:00:00? I dont want to realize i post it too early :P Anyone have any idea when exactly the neo clocks change?

I think you'd be safe to post from 11:59 to 12, i think the clocks go back after it reaches 1. I could be wrong though. Maybe wait and see and if no one posts, post it in the morning and if not post for a Monday peak this week?

Hey, Mel, I'm not 100% sure, but I think you would still post at midnight. Daylight savings always ends/begins at 2 a.m. in whatever time zone you're in. Here's an article: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/10/091026-daylight-savings-time-2009-fall-back.html

I came online at 130 (old time) and my computer said 12:30. So it's not always 1. And neopets could be set up differently when it switches over.

Yeah. I suggest you wait because you don't want to post early. I'm not posting today so I can guarantee you that I'm not just saying this to get you to post for second. =)

I was just wondering how this worked out for you, as when I came online to get the sidebar at 3 A.M. EST it was already 1 A.M. NST. :K:K I guess Neo's clokc changed before midnight NST? =/

Lol it's even harder for me. I live in Arizona so currently I'm on NST but tomorrow I'll be on Mountain time XD Yeah, I've always been curious about that, it'd be good to know. But thanks for cluing me in, I didn't know the switch was tonight. --- Step outside, take a breath of fresh air, then look down to see if you have a new text message.

That doesnt make sense why you werent on at the right time for the sidebar.... the clocks changed on neo some time after midnight. I came on at 11.50pm NST (no time change). I was worried about lag for the people getting the sidebar, but the site was fine. Everyone got their site theme, and I posted the ad at midnight and I just have to hope its not wierd and falls off early :P It shouldnt tho...

[center] Wait, the time changed? I guess that would explain why my cell phone and computer didn't say the same time as my plain alarm clocks. :O ------------------------------------------------------------------- [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=raine_storme&misc]~~ Come visit my map shop ~~[/url] [/center]
