End time of events

[89maddog89]

Dear players, seeing a lot of reports about the ending time of the events, i want to explain a little bit about it.

First, check this screenshot, which shows my current soccer event + times:


As you can see, the time the event will end, is stated as 00:59 07/22/2014.
When looking at this time as it should be the server time, it seems wrong. However, this is the mistake most players make.
This time is NOT the server time, it's your actual real-life time.

For example, my european server events reset at 1am for me (GMT+1), which is the exact time displayed on the image.
Someone from GMT+2 will see 01:59 on their image, GMT+0 will show 23:59.
Check your times, and see for yourself

Hope this helps to solve a lot of confusion,

Actually no it isn't. According to forum mods it is a nonfixable bug. I'm glad yours is real time but not everyone's is.

Kit, any response?
And for your response R254063657, i have talked to a lot of people about it, which all confirmed this. Is it true in your case, or got a proof that it's not?
And i'm not saying it's not a bug, and that it could be fixed. I'm just saying the bug is misunderstood

The duration timer on the soccer event is bugged, I have something different from what you have there. I'm sure they know its there and trying to find out how to fix it.
But it ends july 21st.

Not for the recent soccer event although I plan to ask my guildmates later. For the soccer event that ended early it was both the wrong day and time, so unless they changed it...

Volac, i understand you have a different time than what's on my screen, most people have different times. What time does your server reset in your real-time, and which time does the image show?

While the end times were wrong before it looks like from the evidence when they brought back soccer you are right. Someone asked me to play their account and on the same account we see different end times, in both cases it is when server midnight happens for us and since we are 7 hours apart there is no mistaking it.
