Hey guys,

I am +9:00 houirs off greenwhich time and an having trouble figuring out when our free rolls are. Right now it is 7pm on Saturday eveing and 4AM eastern time.

So to play our regular 8pm Carbon and Full TIlt game they would be, uhhh errr ... I give up.

Hi PJ, currently it is 520ish am on a saturday morning est. Hope this helps.

If you're +9 hours from Greenwich time, and the freerolls are -5 hours from Greenwich time.. then you would be +14 hours from the freeroll time.

So.. a Tuesday Full Tilt freeroll is 8pm Eastern Time... but that freeroll would take place on Wednesday 10 AM Panamajoe time.

Let's be sure to keep in touch.

Being in Japan, I too know the difficulties of scheduling around US-centric sites.

Here's a handy tool for your tournament schedules:

You can save settings in your browser cookies too so each time you go to the site it defaults to USA EST -> Korea time too.

Hope to see you on the felt!

There is a little utility called "SymmTime" from a company called Symmetricom that you can put on your PC and have a wall of clocks that you can set to each timezone you want to monitor. I usually keep 4 timezones - local, Central US, Eastern US, and GMT up there. You can put up to like 13 timezones in a row... if you are so inclined.

Good to hear from you.
Hope all is going well.

Hey Joe, good to see you! Mrmonkey did stop in yesterday, and said that his area was not to badly hit, so that at least is good news.

This would be correct for Standard Time, but we're on DST now as of last weekend! So the games are at GMT-4, not GMT-5.
