Just reserved the Mario Kart Wii U bundle a few days ago and I can't wait for this tournament to start! Hopefully we settle on any time after 3-11PM EST! Just two more weeks!

I am going to host a weekly tournament, starting on Thursday, June 5th 20:00 CEST (Central European Summer Time). I am willing to move the timeslot one hour forward or backward, depending on demand. I picked Thursday, because that way it will definitely not overlap with the "official" tournaments nor the UEFA Champions League (yes, I plan to do tournaments for months to come). It will be a triple-header each time, so three GPs of four races each over the course of roughly one hour.

More information in the weeks to come.


I'm guessing that's 2pm EST? If so, an hour later would help for me!

No, that's 2pm EDT.


Careful, I could decide not to play in your tournament, though perhaps that's what you want as then you'd actually have a chance at winning!

What do you mean? I just told you that you had the wrong time.



Aren't those the same thing?

Good, good. It would be nice to blanket the week in tourneys held by different people like you at different times. In that case, when everything is cleared up, I'll definitely add this to my OP.

Nope, they are Eastern Standard Time and Eastern Daylight Time; and daylight saving time differs one hour from the standard.


...I hate timezones! D:<

Still, an hour later would be better!

Ha, nice.

I'll be there Rol!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Would 5:30 EST (I'm pretty sure that's 4:30 PST) be okay for you? I've been thinking of this for awhile now and it seems to fit in between the two most popular options in the poll.

Also, Rol, you're a racist.

There's a difference of three hours between Eastern Standard Time and Pacific Standard Time.

I really need to check up on my timezones... but my ignorance on that makes sense since I'm 'Merican.

Since you're right, this is a sticky situation. There's obviously a bigger difference than I thought. Yikes.
