Good point... usually, I'm trying to answer a question

I will admit I had no idea that Daylight Savings Time started earlier elsewhere... but I kind of suspected that was the reason for the incorrect time... thanks for clearing that up

In Australia DST actually ended yesterday, and I have a sneaking suspicion that by setting the clock back here means I am now an hour behind due to Poly's clock changing as well...

test (need to check my time)

yep, mine is 1 hour ahead. I rarely pay attention to the time.

and how does the forums handle countries and U.S. states (and areas of U.S. states) that do not have daylight saving time? I guess they have to manually adjust it to the "wrong" time zone.

Yes, most of the clocks go forward an hour every Spring. They also go back an hour every Fall too. Please try to keep up.

I'd like to point out Dauphin, that most clocks have to be changed manually. It does not go automatically. please be more accurate when you try to inform us in the future.

Highlighting post, for some may miss the wry humour gleaned from guessing when the clocks will go forwards/backwards.

Also I didn't want anyone thinking that slapping me with a trout should become the latest competition craze.

Maybe I could offer extra guesses in the other comp for those who (whilst also making a contribution to the thread, naturally) do slap Dauphin with a large trout.

Here is the thread from last year:
Last Years Thread

Not surprisingly it has many of the same spammers posters as this one does

Oh, and before the contest begins, I pick March 28.

(not coincedently it is the date of both the first post in this thread and in last years...which should help lead to the death of this contest before it begins )
