Man am I confused... is 03:00 GMT September 6 correct? That would still make it September 5, 8:00pm for me...

Wow, that makes it much easier. Thanks!
And now I can see Apolyton is on eastern time, as I am pacific time. 22:39 for me, 01:39 for Apolyton. Three hours.

GMT never changes but most of the local times are shifted one hour in the summer. So, usually New York is -5 GMT but in the summer (from the first Sunday of April until the last Sunday in October) it is -4 GMT. Thus there are two abbreviations for that zone - EST and EDT, respectively East Standard Time and East Daylight saving Time.
To make things more confused the daylight saving time in Europe is changed in the last week of March, i.e. one week earlier than in USA.
There are countries which do not change time, Southern countries (like Australia) change the time when there is summer, i.e. winter for USA and Europe.
This is why I'd like to have GMT time and everyone can adjust that time to his time zone. Because everyone knows (does he?) which zone he lives in and what is the difference but there are few people who could know the time zones of the different countries and servers

I'd love to be there, but this would mean I'd have to be awake at 5 a.m. and as I will have to go to school at 8 a.m. I'll be asleep at that time...
