I think there might be an issue...I have seen a few players where the auction deadline had past, but the player hadn't been transferred yet.

From what I`ve seen, when you get to see the entire list of available players for transfers (after filtering you needs), the time specified there (as the bid limit time) is your local time. BUT, when you select one of those player to see their full details or make a bid, the "Auctions End" time is completely diferent. In my case, it´s five hours before the the other time I`ve explained (the one that supossedly is my local time). So, I´ve got no clue what that time means...

You're right, I think. I believe that once you bid on a guy (and he ends up on your bids page) the time shows up as your local time. Before that, if you click on his page, it'll show his end time based on the local time of the clock in the top right corner. Let me repeat...I think!

It's certainly confusing, and though I like seeing what time people will end in local time, it can get pretty confusing. For instance, there have been times when I've seen a guy who I thought was almost ending and panicked to bid quickly, then when the time transfers hes actually not done for another 6 hours, etc.

Do you mean that on his page, it shows up as the local time of that player while after you bid it shows up as your local time?

The end time you see on the transfers page is the standard CET time (comparable to the time you see when surfing the confs).

The end time you see on the individual player page is your local time (comparable to the time you see when surfing the rest of BB).

Just did a little test. When you search for players and scroll through the results page, the time is CET. The player I chose ended at 20:49:23. Once you click on a certain player, the time switches to local time (11:49:23 in my case). When he is bid on, he appears in the bids page in local time (again, 11:49:23).

I agree. It doesn't matter to me which time system is used as long as it's used consistently. I've made due with server time on HT for 3 years. The flip-flopping thing is killing me, though.

I agree this is a definite high priority job for the BBs to do.

Go back to working on the computer time/ time zone solution at a later date when you guys aren't so busy. Just set a time that is playable for this non-beta :S game...
