MP: Mo-Fr 12.00hUTC fixed scheduled (running again

Cainehill · #1 June 21st, 2004, 04:17 AM

Eight pretenders uploaded - looks like we can start it Monday, eh? And there was much rejoicing.

Okay, the game has been started. Currently the timer is disengaged.

The system time, as of now, according to date -u, is "Mon Jun 21 04:10:52 UTC 2004". I have no idea whether this is correct or not, as I have no idea what time it is now HERE, let alone what time it is where the server is, not that I know where the server is physically situated, so I'm just gonna go with that. If this time is wrong....well, somebody had better complain fast.

I will engage the timer and set it to begin sometime after 1200 UTC by the system clock.

Ok, so can someone who followed all of the Posts and arguments (?) below update the rest of us on when exactly the game is gonna be hosting? :-)

Thanks!

That was the plan, yes. Not sure it's worth restarting to get 4 provinces now though - probably take a full day or more to get everyone to upload a pretender to a corrected game.

Sorry, I must have missed the 4 provinces thing in all of the bickering and squabbling. It's been a long thread. I hope it's not too much of a problem.

I'm also strongly against restarting - I'm too anxious to get the game going finally!

As for the time:
Seems pretty correct to me, since the forum is currently at UTC-5h, and you posted at 23:13h forum-time which corresponds to 04:10h UTC as you have written.

Please remember that we are guniea-pigs and enable quick-hosts. Do not set the timerintervall or any pause days. Thanks!
