Worlds Largest Internet Paintball Party - Sat. 23rd

[AGD]

AO Party Animals,

The WLIPP is now officially going to be on Saturday March 23rd starting at 7:00 pm central time. Amy will be in chat about 8:00 and we will be giving away signed pics of her all through the night. I will work on an Emag contest that will not require us to slow down the server with excessive posts. Expect more prize stuff to be announced!

Party King,

AGD

[Kaiser Bob]

TK, how bout a "Who wants to own an Emag" contest? you can put people in the hot seat and ask them questions just like the game show! 1st prize: Emag!

Unfortunatly I, RoadDawg can't make it. My best friend is getting married on that date back in Utah and I've already got my tickets and everything to go back and see him. I wish I could attend. Sounds like it would be fun. Thanks for the invitation Tom.

[kutter]

Not that I won't be there but I noticed that there are no less than 5 scenario games running that weekend, in addition to whatever tournaments there are.

Something makes me think that this little hobby that started so long ago is begining to grow. See ya'll on the 23rd!

Guys make sure to get mIRC, as Tom states in one of the other classics AO members will be dissapointed if they use the one on the website.

[soilent green]

gonna have to rescheduale team practice for this

[Manuel_FZR]

But what centraleuropeantime is this? I´m here in Germany, and don´t know what central time is here?

[[FE]Memnock]

Manuel, are you GMT or GMT+01:00 there in Germany? If GMT, then the party will start at 01:00 on Sunday morning for you. If GMT+01:00 then it will start at 02:00. I usually cheat to check timezones... just double click on the time in your system tray (lower right hand corner of your screen most likely) and then click on the timezone tab. There it will list what timezone your clock is set to , and will also list all the other timezones' offset to GMT (Which is Greenwich Mean Time I believe). So, you just have to figure out what YOUR offset to GMT is and make the calculation based on what Central time's offset is, which is GMT-06:00.

Example: If the party is at 19:00 Saturday night (GMT-06:00(CST)) and you live in the GMT+01:00(Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm) timezone, the party will take place at: 19:00 + 6 hours (GMT-06:00) + one more hour (GMT+01:00) = 02:00 Sunday morning.

Head hurt yet? :) I hate timezones...

-Mem

Update: Did a little searching, and it looks like you are GMT+01:00 so for you the party will start at 02:00 on Sunday morning. Hope this helped!

[Manuel_FZR]

Thanks! That helps! ;)
