Remember that those little clock hands are moving in each timezone. You may be able to start playing sooner than you thought.

we have 8 hours i think, it unlocks in 8 hours regardless of your timezone. If you sleep now you can be all energized for it.

I must buy my pound of coffee, cold cuts, and that fine italian bread they have for this BWE weekend. Can't be inconvenienced with cooking, going outside to get air, or drinking anything withoug caffeine now can I?

Around 1:20 am. Try logging in early to A. download anything new B. They started a few BWEs early. I started logging in last week end.

Mountain Time is 1 hour ahead of Pacific Time(I'm in Montana, so that's my time zone as well). If it starts on time, at 12:00am PST, it'll be at 1:00am for you. Depending on circumstances, it might be delayed for a little bit like a couple of the other weekends, in which case it would start a bit later- I think last event opened up at around 1:30 or 1:45 for me.

This will also be my first GW Beta event and i am also very excited to creat my Ranger (Crossing my fingers hoping that Ranger in this game is better than the crap Hunter in WoW)

When does it open usually? Only got a hr, either 3-4 or 3:30-4:30. Also, how long do the updates usually take?

My second BWE, going to bed now so I can be up at two-fourty five, being in the EST time zone sort of stinks, but then agian sort of not...

Oh well! Man this weekend, then next week my bf stays with me a whole week, OMG I'm so psyched, I am going to drown myself in melatonin to sleep.

Ok no not really, just gonna take three 1mg tablets.

PSst for those who don't know what melatonin is, try http://melatonin.com/

It is your friend! I swear it, it is your friend for when you need to sleep, but it sometimes doesn't work with caffine and sugar, it can be counter acted, but still it works if you really want to sleep. Woo hoo!

YEAH! BWE, so psyched, can't wait, might die of heart attack, ok maybe not.

Gonna be an Elementalist/Monk this time, last time i was a Ranger/Monk, and Elementalist/Ranger. Ranger/Monk worked better, but elementalist has more energy and better energy regen. So it'll be more helpful than the Rangers low energy.

Anywho, later guys see ya in Tyria, wow, I wonder how many will actually come here while playing, mwa ha ha hah!

Ooooh! Only 4.5 hours to go! That'll make it 5pm for me in Australia, and I've got things to do tonight so I won't get to play until about 9 or 10

I can't wait!

It opens (or it's supposed to open) at exactly 12:01am on friday according to Pacific Time.

Oh, quick question, does Europe observe Daylight Savings time? This stupid thing we have where we set clocks an hour forward and backwards? If not, what is the time difference between GMT and the east coast now?
