Me? :lol:

*Looks at current record*

Wow, how did we manage that... :o

OK then, lemme see. It's gotta be when america and england are awake. Which makes it morning my time, so it will be evening in England, mid-morning in LA and afternoon in NY. So everyone has to visit at around 7PM GMT.

On second thoughts, I don't think anyone will bother Wink

I agree with Aetherfox. Some people *are* busy and cant attend. But if enough people reply to this thread and agree, then I guess we might just manage to do it =).

Whups Tongue I'm not expert with timezones either: it's also daylight savings time just started over here Wink

Well, I could make it earlier, but then I coudn't come. So let's make it later (for me): 8AM GMT.

If you care, post what time it is in your area then.

Oracle,

Don't you want 8PM GMT not 8AM?

BTW, Mexico goes off of Daylight Savings on Sunday, Oct 26th. I assume the USA does also. Before we decide on a particular date, I think we should wait until all of us get off of Daylight Savings Time. So, who goes off later than Oct 26th?

Nope. If 7pm GMT is 11pm where aetherfox is, then 8pm GMT is past his bedtime Smile

However, 8AM is 12 midday there.

So what's the time where you are at 8am GMT?
