Sure, why not, make your guesses

Let me propose some rules:

1) The closest guess wins, nomatter if it's before or after the bill was entered.

2) Guesses should contain both the date and the time (CET). If no date is mentioned the guess is invalid, if no time is mentioned it will be 0:01 on that day. If no AM or PM is mentioned it will be considered a 24 hour notation.

3) Guesses can only be made in this topic

4) Only guesses on or before 16-06-2002 23:59 CET are valid

=====================================

The Final list of guesses. In a week or two we'll know ....

Oops, you are right, i'll edit the post.

Try to be as close as possible, so a date and a time.

Tiger · Post by **Tiger** » Fri Jun 07, 2002 9:35 pm

OK....
I'll just make a dumb guess....
I say....
14th of june @ 21h (9PM)

Oh, and that is Belgian/Dutch/French/etc time !
Portugal and Ireland are one our behind, Finland is one hour in front....
(isn't it ?)

Portugal and Ireland are one our behind, Finland is one hour in front....

Times should be in Central European Time (CET) like already said in the rules.

Tiger · Post by **Tiger** » Fri Jun 07, 2002 9:38 pm

And what is CET ?
"Our" time I presume ?

I'm afraid it is the english time
a message i entered at 10.34 pm was posted as 9.34 pm
this one is written at 10.42 and will probably be posted as 9.42 pm

Tiger · Post by **Tiger** » Fri Jun 07, 2002 10:42 pm

Your message is posted at 22h38...
If you see it in UK time, go to your profile and change the timesettings to GMT +2
that should do it I think

Ah, I'm too late to start the new contest. SMH has taken over. So what time is CET?

smh · Post by **smh** » Fri Jun 07, 2002 11:06 pm

Sorry Mr Euro, But we can always make you the referee.

CET is the time they use in Spain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy etc. This is normally GMT+1 but since we are using daylight saving time you have to add another hour to GMT

In the UK, Ireland and Portugal they use Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)(well, at the moment +1 i guess)

In Finland and Greece they use Eastern Europe Time (EET) (normally GMT+2

BTW, the times on the forum are in GMT+1. so one hour behind for most of us.

But lets go back to the guessing, so far just one guess:

Let me propose some rules:

Monday 19 June, (as that is when my holiday is over).

Let's say at 14.00 Dutch Time (so it will be 13.00 GMT/CET

)

And now of to the train to start the holiday

No CET=GMT+1

The time on the site is CET=GMT+1 so let's make all the entries CET that is GMT+1 ie the time on the site

smh · Post by **smh** » Sat Jun 08, 2002 8:16 pm

Holy cow, it's getting a bit confusing. Maybe we should get rid of the daylight saving time.

I admit that i confused myself coz like Philippe said the CET doesn't change during the summer months.

But for me it's okay to use GMT+1 like on this site. You can also explain which time you mean and i'll change it for you.

So,

Really ??? I know the time changes in France and since the site is hosted in France I expect the times will be adjusted.

Let's just make the rule the following : enter whatever time you want, it has to match the time on the site...

Humm... I'm glad I didn't use time as a primary key for the notes table, I would have been in trouble with daylight saving time or the other way around !! I wonder if other sites made that mistake
