Sirrian just announced the new weekly changeover time so I’m issuing a new guide. The weekly reset for PvP ranks will now occur at 7:00 GMT/UTC every Monday. This guide translates these times for a few selected timezones that I’m guessing Gems of War players will reside in. If you’d like further timezones added, please respond below and I will happily add more. **There are two tables - one for when you are in standard time and one for when daylight savings time applies** ## Standard Time (no daylight saving) ``` Timezone Difference Weekly reset ``` ``` US Pacific GMT -8 2300 Sunday ``` ``` US Mountain GMT -7 0000 Monday ``` ``` US Central GMT -6 0100 Monday ``` ``` US East GMT -5 0200 Monday ``` ``` Brazil GMT -3 0400 Monday ``` ``` UK GMT 0 0700 Monday ``` ``` Central Europe GMT +1 0800 Monday ``` ``` China, West Aus GMT +8 1500 Monday ``` ``` Japan GMT +9 1600 Monday ``` ``` East Australia GMT +10 1700 Monday ``` ## Daylight Saving Time ``` Timezone Difference Weekly reset ``` ``` US Pacific GMT -7 0000 Monday ``` ``` US Mountain GMT -6 0100 Monday ``` ``` US Central GMT -5 0200 Monday ``` ``` US East GMT -4 0300 Monday ``` ``` Brazil GMT -2 0500 Monday ``` ``` UK GMT +1 0800 Monday ``` ``` Central Europe GMT +2 0900 Monday ``` ``` East Australia GMT +11 1800 Monday ``` Now when anyone asks when the weekly reset is or when the weekend event starts or finishes, you can just direct them to this guide! :smiley: ---

Link to Sirrian’s post for reference: > [@2.0 Update - Server Maintenance](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/2-0-update-server-maintenance/7302/57): > > Events will now end 8 hours earlier than previously… up until now, event changeover has happened at 3pm GMT Monday. That is moving to 7am GMT. > > The reasons for this time change?1. We’re all in the office at this time - it’s 5pm in Australia. And if something goes wrong, it’s not just myself and Nimhain sitting up at 1am trying to fix it!2. It’s (close to) our lowest number of users for the day, and that should help alleviate the stress on the servers (we hope!!!) ---

If anyone from Serbia is thinking about when its happening, it’s going to happen on Monday 9AM. Oh yeah I’m probably the only player from my country xD ---

I think there might be some of us in Japan, which is GMT+9, but doesn’t observe DST at all. Also, we’ll see how things go, but it will be interesting to see if they keep the time at 5pm AEST, even after DST kicks in in Aus or not. Which might throw the tables out of whack. ---

> [@Ozball](#): > > Also, we’ll see how things go, but it will be interesting to see if they keep the time at 5pm AEST, even after DST kicks in in Aus or not. Which might throw the tables out of whack. Australian daylight saving doesn’t impact the reset time anywhere except in Australia. It’s fixed as 7am GMT. Japan added. > [@Mufasha](#): > > What badge are you going for now?? The badge of having something to link to every time we get a question about new weekly reset times. 😛 ---

> [@actreal](#): > > Australian daylight saving doesn’t impact the reset time anywhere except in Australia. It’s fixed as 7am GMT. Fair enough, I wasn’t sure if it had impacted it in the past or not. Although if the change was made so people would actually be in the office for changeover, then I’m not sure if as many people would be around at 6pm as would be at 5pm. We’ll see, however if it hasn’t changed in the past, it likely won’t change in the future. ---

Dude, bros, mans, I’m confused. I don’t see pm or am anywhere on the list. 😖😇 ---

Yeah I know, but this change was to try and avoid that 😛 Either way I’ll drop this. I do agree that you will most likely be right. ---

Not sure if you’re being serious or not, but in the case that you are: It’s written in 24 hour time, so 0100 is 1am and after 1200 it goes to 1300 which is the same as 1pm. ---

> [@HKdirewolf](#): > > Dude, bros, mans, I’m confused. I don’t see pm or am anywhere on the list. 😖😇 Which is as it should be. 24 hour time is way easier. I always mix up the AM vs PM debate (mostly due to the fact that it’s just not used that much in Europe…) ---
