FutureTXTurkey Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I was just curious if anyone on here had set their clocks to NST, and if they had what did they think about the benefits. I have several clocks in my room, so I don't really need my computer clock to tell me what time it is, and I've been playing around for a while with the idea of having my computer clock set to NST, so I wouldn't make silly mistakes like the one I made with the Halloween theme, basic math gets me every time. I just didn't know if there was enough benefit to it, or if NST even ran on a consistent enough time that it would work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnotgeorge Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm lucky - I live on PST which is the same as NST :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm good with timezones (most of the time, no pun intented), so I haven't done that at all. For me Snowager is a 9am-5pm-1am thing. I just know it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_the_Bunny Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm horrible with timezones. XP If I didn't live in PST which is equal to NST, I wouldn't bother with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YumYum_00 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 My time is exactly 3 hours ahead of NST time, so I usually don't miss out a lot. Exceptions are Halloween theme bar and Deadly Dice, which occur at 12pm NST, which is 3AM my time, of which I'm probably be sleeping.

Stephé Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm tend to zone out most of the day XD Usually I'll check TDN's coverage to see if there's anything important the next day. If not, I'll just come on any time :P But no, I'm not that dedicated to timezones to change one of my clocks. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tempdisplay Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 OMG! although my time is 8 ahead the time changes alot. I just realised in the post i was going to say after omg i'll do that right away on my second pc clock but i've done that already. Silly me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*SG* Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I watch TDN religiously so it will tell you when the Snowager is asleep so I don't worry about missing it. Also if there's a timed event I just leave my NP page open and watch their clock since some things are relative to seconds as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxpxrocks222 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 well i am ar NST anyways so i am set to it.... but if i wasnt i wouldnt set it since that would just confuse me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Darkest Faerie Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I'm too good for timezones. Ok, I'm too good AT timezones. Well, only with PST/NST and GMT. The latter is where I am. My Snowager times: 2PM and 10PM. I'm not awake at 6AM GMT/10PM NST. I go to bed at 3PM, and wake up as early as 11:00PM to midnight NST. Just 8 hours ahead of NST is how I count it. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I just remember times in my timezone. Like the Snowager is awake at 9 AM and 5 PM, and the other time in inconvenient. And like Deadly Dice is at 3 AM, which is really no good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cara Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 My life in the real world doesn’t really allow me to change my time to NST. I use the time on my laptop as I don’t have a clock in my room and I need to make sure important things like assignments are done on time and I leave with enough time to get to uni etc. Somehow I don't think "but I might miss the snowger!" will work as a plausible excuse :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarthMaiden Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I watch TDN religiously so it will tell you when the Snowager is asleep so I don't worry about missing it. Also if there's a timed event I just leave my NP page open and watch their clock since some things are relative to seconds as well. I do the same - TDN is pretty great about letting us know when the Snowager is asleep; It has actually made me kinda lazy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishLiz Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 My time is usually the same as NST, except we don't do Daylight Savings in AZ. That's the only time I get thrown off... like right now, NST is an hour later than where I live. It will only through me off when it changes again. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticFission Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 my advice would be to do the time conversions for all of the events and just set up alarms for yourself in your own timezone. that's the best way to keep track of these things.

FutureTXTurkey Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 Thanks For All The Great Feedback. It's given me a lot to think about... I don't suppose I will change it, because like SympliG0thic pointed out, any time there is a time related even TDN points it out, and I am always on here, so I guess if it was really important you guys would let me know, LOL.
