Posted on Apr 13, 2012 Hey I was wondering, is it possible to change the update time to be something less terrible for East coasters? Currently it is 4AM, which is terrible be quite a bit of stuff happens around update that I wish to do, but cant because of my actual life taking far more precedent. I'm wondering, would it be cool to shift the update time 12 hours, so that it will be updating in the afternoon for east coasters and at noon for west coasters? |

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 It's actually started at 12:01am PST so 3am EST, however depending on where you are at on the list it may be later, I only signed up a few days ago and when its working correctly I get done at like 12:15am.Btw Scott I figured what threw me off when looking at the time. I am former military and if I ever see 2 ':' I assume its civilian time automatically, when glancing I just dropped the first 2 0's. Military does it as hhmm:ss, I looked it up and I see science / engineering uses hh:mm:ss so it makes sense, I just didn't know that :) |

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 My post was wrong at 4am, I meant 3am EST =pWell if changed by 12 hours, it would be like this: Hawaii: 10am West coast: Noon East Coast: 3pm Europe(France): 9pm Middle East, Eastern Europe (Moscow, Tehran): 11-12pm I didnt just arbitrarily throw out a number; changing by 12 hours would put the update in the afternoon for EVERYONE in the North/South American continents, ALL of Europe, and Africa, the losers here would be Australia and Asia. Getting 4 out of the 6 continents (excluding Antarctica for obvious reasons) to update during the afternoon would be a great way to go about it in my mind. |

Posted on Apr 14, 2012 (Last edited on Apr 14, 2012) Why on earth would you want update to be in what is prime time for every game in the world practically... Is that a good thing or a bad thing? The updater is at 1 minute past midnight because it uses data from 00:00:00 to 23:59:59 from the previous day, but given the problem it had created in the past two days I think the database needs a major overhaul to gain even more efficiency. When that happens the best time to me would be 9 P.M. on West Coast so I can fix any problems that may arise on the same night. Of course, it'll be after we move to the new server. Hawaii: 6 P.M. US West Coast: 9 P.M. US East Coast: 12 Midnight England: 5 A.M. France/Egypt: 6 A.M. Moscow: 8 A.M. China: 12 Noon @Ham ...quite a bit of stuff happens around update that I wish to do... Any specifics? If possible I can always distribute those multiple times throughout the day. |

Posted on Apr 14, 2012 That was in regards to the suggested time Scott. The current update time is very good for me as It's early in the morning here. (Europe) |
