Iron4ever Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Just had a look on a time conversion site on the net, in the above Scenario, Tormod from Oslo, assuming he posted at 9am local time would be posting at 10am GMT. Therefore I would post before him, assuming the site I looked at allows for Daylight saving hours.
Tormod Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 9am local time for me is 8am GMT.
Iron4ever Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 9am local time for me is 8am GMT. Tormod = 9am Local Time = 8am GMTIron4ever = 9am Local Time = 9am GMT Oslo Airport says Website: http://www.osl.no Location: The airport is located 50km (31 miles) north of OsloTime Zone: GMT + 1 (GMT + 2 from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October) Oslo is then GMT+1 = 9am + 1, =10am GMT, Im confused, maybe ill get my coat!!
Tormod Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Iron4ever, why are you confused? You said "9am local time", which is the same as 8am GMT for me...no sweat. Norway is one hour ahead of Britain.
Iron4ever Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Fair play, I had a late night last night!!!! I will stay quiet until I wake up!! Anyway anyone else? Can you Tormod as editor, tell who on this forum is furthest ahead of Britain / GMT??
Tormod Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Hm...good question. We have some members in Malaysia...and Australia...but not sure about the time zones etc.
Jay-qu Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 no I remember now -something about a promotion algorithim running periodically... I should be updated now :QuestionM
Mercury Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 We have some members in Malaysia...and Australia...but not sure about the time zones etc.It is +8GMT for Malaysia. For Australia it is between +8 and +11GMT. Now it is 10:44pm here in M'sia. So it's about 3:44pm back in Norway, if I have not mistaken. Looks like I am late...
Tormod Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 The deadline for the challenge is 3pm Eastern Standard Time, which is 8pm GMT. Plenty of time for everyone still. :QuestionM

Tormod Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Time extentions are always welcome :eek2: Come on...152 to go. My $100 bill is almost heading out for pizza and beer... :QuestionM
rockytriton Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 so what is it that happens when the goal is met?
rockytriton Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 sorry, I'm too lazy to read big emails or big threads.
Turtle Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 so what is it that happens when the goal is met? ___If we reach the goal, Tormod will donate $100 to the Karina CD Relief project. For my birthday yesterday I posed a challenge: Make us reach 70,000 posts by the end of November 22 (midnight) EST and I will donate $100 to the Chrysalid: Katrina Relief CD project. ___Less than 100 posts to go; piece of pie. :evil:
Yvonne Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Make him pay!! Love,Yvonne Turtle and IrishEyes 2
