time change

[Sumpson]

In most euro country's the time will change +1 this weekend.
I was wondering if the EST time would change too or not. Because else it would have a pretty big effection on the euro players and since no one knew in staff I decided to ask this question in here so you all know when to be online for the TWL matches.

Well, that is actually a pretty huge deal, especially if no one knew about it.

In North America, we don't set our clocks ahead until the first Sunday in April, which would be NEXT week.

It's central time you never have to reset the clocks Cha-Ching. Prairies finally pay off.

[PureOwnage]

Don't know what Central time you live in, but I have to change my clocks 2 times a year. (Spring Forward, Fall Back)

[Jeenyuss]

I live in the Canadian Central time. We don't have clocks so really, we don't have to set the sundial.

[Stultus]

Hawaii rocks--no clock changing for us.

[Stabwound]

I always hate having to move the clocks ahead an hour. It always seems to kick ass though when we get to set them back an hour in the fall.

Direct quotes:

When we change our clocks

Daylight Saving Time begins for most of the United States at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of April. Time reverts to standard time at 2 a.m. on the last Sunday of October. In the U.S., each time zone switches at a different time.

In the European Union, Summer Time begins and ends at 1 am Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time). It starts the last Sunday in March, and ends the last Sunday in October. In the EU, all time zones change at the same moment.

Some U.S. areas

Daylight Saving Time, for the U.S. and its territories, is NOT observed in Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, most of the Eastern Time Zone portion of the State of Indiana, and the state of Arizona (not the Navajo Indian Reservation, which does observe). Navajo Nation participates in the Daylight Saving Time policy, due to its large size and location in three states.
