that'd make everything starting about 7 or 8 pm Eastern...
therefore:
central - 6-7
mountain - 5-6
pacific - 4-5

this would put everything right about prime time... thoughts?
sounds good, but I don't think it fits well with TAL very well. It WOULD make things alot more conveniant though. I don't want to have to wait till 10 PM to get anything. But hey, patience is a virtue right?

What was the syntax of prior server keys? Are they letters, numbers, or a mix?

i'm saying that it would be 23:59 GMT. which would be either 7 or 8 pm eastern.
i say GMT because it is an international game, and GMT is the basis for the other timezones. just a thought. i mean, everything's coordinated to go off at the same time when you adjust everything to ONE timezone (in this case, people are doing it to either pacific [9pm] or eastern [midnight] time zones) maybe it's actually based off of another time zone altogether.
that's why i'm looking at 4-8 local time.

I see what you're saying, but then why have two different times on the ATL page? Wouldn't it be just as reasonable to say that its 21:00 GMT and not 23:59?

Sound judgment, but I don't think that is the case with this.

I think someone already posted the info fro mthe SWF, and it's listed as New York being under Eastern Time. So just go off the time-zones in those cities/states.

While that does seem plausible, and makes sense, the one factor that seems to hinder this is the correlation of the cities and the times next to it...

But, if they did that to throw us off...then 7 or 8 would be a good time to also check...but thats me being paranoid :?

another thought as to what may be going on and where.
given the dna sample from server 4 has at least been credited as 'mostly' chinese alligator, maybe the 'artifact' in these locations will be hidden at local zoos... just a thought. any chinese alligators at any of the zoos in ny, la, or seattle?

here is an example of good thinking outside the box. I would be dissapointed if we had to go to a zoo in just these 3 specific cities. It would just seem..........not right to me.
