US Time Zones

[fishki]

Just so everyone can figure out what time they play.

For instance:

Game time, 8:00 PM US Central
If you are in the EASTERN TIME ZONE you will play at 9:00 pm your time (add 1 hour to game time for your time)
If you are in the MOUNTAIN TIME ZONE you will play at 7:00 pm your time (subtract 1 hour from game time for your time)
If you are in the PACIFIC TIME ZONE you will play at 6:00 pm your time (subtract 2 hours from game time for your time)

Daylight Savings does not apply to AZ and IN, Currently we are in Standard Time, Daylight Savings is in the Spring, Summer, and Fall.

So anyone living in AZ will play at 7:00 pm (use Mountain Time except during Daylight Savings)
And anyone in IN will play at 9:00 pm (use Eastern Time except during Daylight Savings)


Only post here if you need further assistance. Any other topics or posts will be deleted. I am leaving this UNLOCKED for those that require further explanation.

Uhm, aren't we in daylight savings now? And not during spring, summer, fall?

And Indiana is a little fuzzy. From what I remember living there, there was no real rule to know what time you were to follow. Each county had different rules...but you know what zone you're in if you live there.

no we are in standard time right now

Starting in 2007, daylight time begins in the United States on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. On the second Sunday in March, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2:00 a.m. local standard time, which becomes 3:00 a.m. local daylight time. On the first Sunday in November, clocks are set back one hour at 2:00 a.m. local daylight time, which becomes 1:00 a.m. local standard time. These dates were established by Congress in the Energy Policy Act of 2005, Pub. L. no. 109-58, 119 Stat 594 (2005).

Not all places in the U.S. observe daylight time. In particular, Hawaii and most of Arizona do not use it. Indiana adopted its use beginning in 2006.
