Post clock off

pacificscrub · November 8th, 2007, 10:21 AM

Just a heads up to everyone that apparently the boards don't adjust to daylight savings, so bids are coming in with a timestamp an hour into the future. That means if according to the last post you have under an hour left to bid, really the bidding is done and you missed out on your guy. Just an fyi.

Preds, please send out an email or post letting us know when this is fixed so we know when the clocks are back on. Thanks.

This is based on your board settings. You must have the board settings to not account for daylight savings time. The time is correct from where I'm viewing.

Silly me. Why wouldn't I think my clock was defaulted to Lima, Peru time. Actually I didn't realize that was an option. Fixed now, so hopefully it won't be a problem in the future.

I have mine set to Auto-detect, and it hasn't yet.....

Maybe switch it off of Auto-detect and then back onto it?

I had my set to "always use DST correction" and I went off by an hour this weekend. Once I switched to Auto-detect everything was back into harmony.

I'll guarentee the DST settings are F'd up, since I haven't updated the board software for a couple years, and the DST changes were new this year.

My recommendation is to TURN OFF the DST detection and set your board clocks to GMT-5. When DST is in effect, change it to GMT-4.

So are we in DST mode now, or is that what just ended?

DST just ended. Set your clocks to GMT-5 for current Eastern Time and turn off the DST detection.
