liquidfire Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Our time don't change till the 4th of November I think. I actually just found out that it was pushed back a week the other day. It didn't even dawn on me that this happened but every year I wondered why kids were trick or treating in the daylight. Now it all makes sense. lol Didn't we use to be on par with the UK (I'm in the US) in terms of daylight savings time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before this, I believe they were done on the same day. I still don't understand why they changed it to begin with. Stupid government always messing with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jACKx Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I never understood why daylight savings time was a thing. Like I get it for farmers but what about everyone else? Who enjoys getting up in the morning and going to work in the dark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondDave Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 The time don't matter in the US. We have to wait till the 4th for this. Oh well.

There is more to it than just farming but I really couldn't tell you what exactly it is about without googling it and I can't be bothered 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking forward to getting that extra hour in on RDR2 on the second weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the Summer, I wake up early enough to go to work in the dark, come home in the daylight. Winter time, I go to the work in the dark and come home in the dark. That is what it is all about, missing with me so the days blur together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I will be using it to catch up on sleep or play RDR2. I guess it depends how tired I am that night lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjo Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Because of my timezone I get to play it at 9pm on the 25th. As the official release date is the 26th my gf was convinced I was getting it earlier than everyone else and said about me giving spoilers away to the rest of the world. Bless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Dan Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 It is all witchcraft and sorcery to me. Usually in the US, when something is being released or a sale is happening, they do their best to sink it up so they will be a time zone and it will be the same time everywhere no matter what the clock says.

Gamestop is on this trend right now of releasing the AAA titles at 8PM the night before official release. No joke, there were about 500 people lined up last night when I came out of Chipotle with the fam, and my kids asked, "Dad, why are all those people in line?" Me: "It's for a video game. Black Ops dropped today for people who preorded." Wife: "Your dad used to be one of 'those people'". Me: "Your dad IS going to be one of those people in two weeks." Son #1: "Is that for Red Dead 2?" Me: "Yep. And what's Dad going to do first when he plays?" Son #1 & Son #2: "Shoot the deer and sell the hide". Me: "That's right. A man's gotta eat." Wife: "You are so weird." Me: "You should be happy, I'll be too busy playing this to paw at you all night" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
