Post subject: | Contest 3 Start Time |
Hello. Excuse me if this was asked somewhere, but I just noticed today that the next contest was scheduled for "Wednesday December 15, 2010 At 08:15PM EST" . Looking back at the calender, the previous contests apparently started later in the evening too. Of course, all the contests so far where at 3:15 EST. I'm wondering if this is a problem at all. Thanks |

I think it may just be a bug but I am not sure... |

Right now it's 7:35 EST . "The next contest will start in 1 Days 0 Hours 39 Minutes 33 Seconds" If that timer is actually what starts the contest, there might be an issue. You'd know better than me, of course. |

This is what my ContestCP says... DWITE wrote: The next contest will start in 1 Days 0 Hours 20 Minutes 29 Seconds
The server time is Tuesday December 14, 2010 At 07:54PM EST as of the last page refresh. Is this a problem for everyone? However, this is what it says above that: DWITE wrote: The next contest, DWITE 2010-2011 High School Round 3, will be held on Wednesday December 15, 2010 At 08:15PM EST and is open to High Schools.
You can view more upcoming contests in the contest calendar. |

It seems that when syncing the dwite database to the cloud the times got changed. Went from 15:15:00 to 20:15:00. The issues should now be fixed. |
