CC time?

by **shrub** on Mon Jan 30, 2012 6:30 pm

Hi all,

this may seem odd, but was talking to a friend, and casually brought up CC time, which he had never heard of...
Has there been some sort of update by CC to use a standard time or a 'CC time' or have I had another weird dream? I'm sure it was made to aid play across time zones, also possibly there was something involving when the clocks change for summer time etc...

Hope someone can help, and that i've not just gone mad

CC Time is the time in Montreal, Canada. (also, New York)

It is used to help distinguish what time someone really means. This helps since we are all from different time zones.

You can use CC time in forum posts and private messages, by using the 'Time' code tags.

Code: Select all: [Time][/Time]

its now (feb 2th) 23:52 in Amsterdam, but since Amsterdam is 6 hours ahead of CC time Montreal. So i enter Montreal time inside the time markers (inc date) CC Time: 2012-02-02 17:52:00

Seb, might want to tell how to differentiate between the month and the day for the code. You put 02 for both, so it would be confusing as to which one goes where.

Also, I'm pretty sure if was Feb 1 in Amsterdam at that time.

The last one is the day, the middle one the month, so the folowing is 3 february:
