MST MOUNTAIN STANDARD TIMEpixelsaurus wrote: ↑Wed May 04, 2022 10:36 am I don't have an issue with the forum being closed due to software upgrades. However I think it would be beneficial if the time the site will go down is in UT. I notice that tomorrows update is in MST, whatever that is. Cheers.

My timezone is
But if MST also slides due to DST, then 11:00 + 9 hours = 20:00 = 8 PM.
[edit]
Yes, it should slide, but then the time should be MDT.

Re: SIte Upgrades
Just a small quibble. I believe it is Arizona specifically that doesn't change to DST. I think other MST states do make the change. In any case I am in agreement that you are the lucky ones!
In my working days I did regular business with a tech firm in AZ, it was sometimes a challenge to figure out a common time for a meeting. But I got used to it. My company's headquarters were in Indianapolis, and they didn't change either.

You’re right Bob, it’s just Arizona and the Navajo nation within Arizona does change!bobharmony wrote: ↑Wed May 04, 2022 10:51 pmJust a small quibble.
