2023 Chu Shogi Cup R1, AlexTrick - PikerWorm101
@pikerworm101 my timezone is UTC+3.
For my schedule good time to play is between 14:00 and 19:00 (UTC+3) on weekdays. On weekends that's a bit tough for me, and I do not know when I'll be able to play our game, but definitely not on Saturday when I'm busy. Probably I would be able on Sunday as well, at the same time between 14:00 and 19:00 UTC+3
Mentioned time is the time of start of the game, which could last up to 4 hours. But I do not think our game would last that long.
What's the appropriate day/time for you?
sunday works, i wont be able to do it on weekdays due to school
Ok, let's schedule our game then.
What's the earliest time you could start our game on Sunday?
Please write it in UTC format
the earlier, the better, i got something that starts at 20:00 UTC, so ill rather start somewhere between 14:00 and 16:00, so if it goes on for the full 4 hours, it wouldn't interfere
My earliest possible time on Sunday 14:00 UTC+3 is 11:00 AM UTC+0 time.
Is this time appropriate for you?
at long as its before 16:00, im ok with any time
Just to ensure.
You mentioned in Discord that your timezone is EST, I guess, it's UTC-5, right?
11:00 AM UTC+0 would be 06:00 AM UTC-5. Isn't this too early for you?
I'm fine to start our game between 14:00 - 19:00 UTC+3 which corresponds to 11:00 - 16:00 UTC+0.
You mentioned, you prefer time between 14:00 and 16:00 UTC, so let's start our game on Sunday at 14:00 UTC+0?
oh, i mistranslated, i thought it was 8 for me, not 6, so sure, 14:00 UTC works.
For the record, Eastern US is currently UTC -4. So that's 10AM.
