Tips for Finding Opponents

Post by Arjuna »

The following tips are just that, suggestions.

#1 - Provide your Time Zone - expressed as Standard time + or - # hours. Standard Time is based on the time at Greenich UK or Zero longitude and is often referred to as GMT or Zulu time or just the letter Z. Eg here in Canberra, Australia we are Z + 10hrs. That way everyone can work out what time frame that is for them. Don't assume everyone knows your time zone and don't referece it by saying Eastern Daylight Saving Time as many countries around the world have such a zone.

To find out which zone you are in, check out this site:

World Time Server

#2 - Use a 24 hour clock. This makes it easy then for everyone to calc it into their time.

Eg. So if you live on the east coast of the US and you are up for a game between 8pm and 10pm tonight, you would express that as being available from 2000 - 2200 hrs, Z - 4
