Servers down again???

General Discussion Started Last reply 12 posts
To all that are questioning why are servers down again: It's maintennance time. Like every Tuesday :)

For Euros, MST and some other rest of the world it's one hour earlier because in US they had Daylight Saving this Sunday morning.
lol, I came to the forums just to see who was asking that today XD
Burn the heretics I say! Switching the clock before it is supposed to!

They just have to be different.
Why are those savings anyway? Not that it saves anything... well, my stress from triple-checking scheduling at work is satisfied though.
wtb real lives for you people PST
I can sell mine if you want. Dont like 17h workdays :P
I can sell you my excessive overtimes. I won't have chance to spend them this month anyway I guess :p Nightshifts included if you order bulk package.

Hi Crawlerin!

I left a little nasty note in the HGSpam thread because the poster regarding this was a donkey.

You however are being sarcastic and I love you.

All AW members for that matter.

Heres a link: California Energy Commision (http://www.energy.ca.gov/daylightsaving.html)

Daylight savings is an attempt to save energy. Nothing more. Take care!
Yeah, but doesn't it get pushed one hour back during Autumn (Fall), hence one more hour of energy consumption later that year? It nullifies then. Or are Spring and Autumn consumptions somewhat different?

Hi LJ :) Nice to see you crawling boards again :)
:mad:
Crawlerin, it's not about about time, but about actual daylight (as the name says).
before changing the clock u would get dawn (hence daylight) at ~6AM, when almost noone needs it since most ppl go to work later and you'd get dusk (night) at ~7PM when noone's sleeping and they would turn on lights.
by adding +1 hour you get sundown at 8PM, thus saving 1 hour of lights being turned on. think about 1 hour/day in every home for all the summer months to come... i think it adds up to a pretty huge amount saved
