The Church of Jorb

[Sachaztan]

Heretical concepts limiting the freedoms of Salemites everywhere

I will be there, assuming I got the time right. I'm American (EST), so European time zones scare me.

Just convert from the GMT times I have given.

Actually considering the international audience in Salem it's prob better if I only post in GMT/UTC. This also changes the time of the first event for most (if not all) Europeans since GMT/UTC doesn't have daylights savings time.

To save everybody a headache, and for those who don't know how to convert time zones:

What you should do is when you announce a church function or action just convert the time to the 6 biggest Salem player time zones for players. This will help them to know when to attend. Announce it in GMT/UTC then add in parenthesis (CEST or CET, JST/KST, CST, US EST or US EDT, AU EST, and MSK or MSD) most of the other 5% and Darnok can figure it out from there, and then you also get the 3 main Daylight Savings Times (DST) coordinated. This will solve a lot of headaches of everybody trying to convert their time zones.

You picked a bad time of year to announce this, because all the DST's are just switching over and are different right now. (Europe, Moscow and Australia are still on, but the U.S. is off)

EXample: The church of Jorb shall be meeting in the Church at Roanoke this Sunday at 16.00 GMT/UTC (17.00 CET, 20.00.00 MSK, midnight CST, 01.00 JST/KST, 02.00 AU EST, and noon US EST) [I hope I got those right. ]

Can I humbly and with much praise to Jorb make three suggestions:

1. Could Trenial hold a Wednesday night service around midnight US CST to pras all new updates before the server shuts down for update Thursday morning.
2. Could part of the Sunday service include all of us attendees going into the square and 'pointing and laughing' towards the NE across the ocean towards the mystical homeland of Jorb and Loftar.
3. Could part of the church be that when we all go to the river for baptisms and such, we all can drop something in the water. This could represent a nominal sacrifice or small part and willingness to help clean up lag, or something.

This one's better, but still... If he wants to promote it, he shouldn't make them have to go somewhere else to get the time for it. They'll just skip it unless he gives them a time to be there.

I no longer have the flu and managed across a period of days to re adjust my sleeping habits back to normal(Pras Jorb). So yeah, you def won't see me on anymore after or around midnight.

lol, that's good. I was getting worried there after seeing you online digging for 20hrs at a time. maybe earlier on Wednesdays or Thursdays after the update comes out. I'm just thinking that Father George's sermons are going to be really, really early (9am west coast, noon east coast, Sunday morning) here in the U.S. and it would be nice to have one a bit later. Maybe talk to him about doing it around 19.00 GMT instead. I don't know where he's from, so I don't know whether that works. Either way it's a fun idea.

Added timezones and bumped it forward 2 hours. Oh and DST is ridiculous, outdated and should be abolished.

[Claeyt]

I'll be there. Hopefully showing the times brings in a world audience. Somebody get screen shots of us all standing in the river.

Speaking of the baptizing, all the converts will form a line and will then approach me one by one. I don't have all the details of the ceremony worked out yet but it will include me cleaning charred milkweed fiber in the river to simulate the splash.

[Sachaztan]

Mass shall begin in about an hour. Father George will be talking about the tenets of the faith and baptize those who wish to save their eternal souls.
