Daylight Savings Time and Bonus Credits

Alrighty, DST in the US starts this Sunday, so areas that follow DST don't forget to switch your clocks back one hour.

Also, remember that entry time for Raids is suppose to be 10:15, not 10:30... Instead of penalizing late comers, I will start rewarding ones that show up early. A 0.25 point to attendance will be added to those that show up early (I'll think of something for those that cannot be on time due to RL situations) But basically, I will be taking attendance at 9:45PM EST, which is the cutoff time for "early". This will begin next Raid, Nov 3rd.


So...
10PM EST (convert your own time for CST, PST, etc)
11AM HKT
12PM JPT

And +0.25 for showing up by 9:45PM EST.

BTW.. No-posts will still receive a -1 credit.

DST sucks, it's annoying and IMO useless and causes confusion. Oh well, we could all just not turn the clock back LOL

I've been taking early-bird attendance at 9:45. I'm still considering what the adjustment value will be. I'm leaning toward 0.25 or 0.33 (ie) +1 for every 4 or +1 for every 3.
