This morning I managed to annoy more people by starting the latest round of FYCTH earlier.
Is there anyway of 1 displaying FWFR time on the site 2 syncronising with GMT or some time zone somewhere
at present the difference is approx 4 minutes, which seems nothing but this morning The BBC news at 6am had started so I started FYCTH.
I know that I can work it out with posting and calculating the difference but its a bit of a pain, especially with WAC on my knee!
Cheers

In the meantime, given that it has been noted repeatedly that F.W.F.R. time is behind British time, perhaps this could just be kept in mind when starting the F.Y.C.T.H. |

This is the first I'd heard of the time being out. Have just corrected this at least. |

That's impressive... the site's been on at least two different servers in the last 2 years! They were BOTH wrong???  |

Yes! And both slow. I think the previous server was only a little slow though.

Can someone please explain to me why this matters so much? Is there some regulatory board (other than Salopian) that dictates FYCTH must not start 3 minutes early?
Lets file this under this site is for fun lets not get overly critical of when people start silly contests and the like. |

I see where your coming from Turrell but I think that this particular thread stems from Josh The Cat's commendable respect for his fellow Fwiffers.

The truth is that Wildhartlivie managed to post a thread bang on at 6:00:00 but I had already posted and foxy had responded quickly so I felt guilty for whl
I did post early and I don't like to annoy people when the solution is so simple and the issue is trival.
I thought that it was easier to apologise and ask for it to be sorted than to possibly let people think bad of me. Deep down I want an easy, pleasant, friendly & environment, as we all do!

OK, let's compromise on 23 months.

Let's compromise that it may have been out by a few seconds two years ago, not a few or more minutes. |
