Re: SiMH Thomas Ligotti Essay Contest - Deadline Notice!

I'm in the final lap of the Ligotti essay, and the end is in sight.


*furiously typing*

Thanks again to everyone for your ideas and support!

I'll keep working, but I'm afraid I might miss out on this one.

Re: SiMH Thomas Ligotti Essay Contest - Deadline Notice!

"Finishing touches" is just the right word.

Am I right to assume that we are in the same time zone? I.e., does the clock actually display the time in the U.S.? (´cause that´s exactly the time we have here in Bavaria; seems weird to me - as a student of literary sciences). :roll:

Actually, the system displays all times relative to a member's time zone. It does this through the country/state specified upon registration. You can also tweak your time zone relative to GMT within the Profile Control Panel. If you are not logged into the site, you view times according to United States EST, as this is where the TLO server resides. Wow, was that a geeky fact of the day, or what? ops:

*sighs* I don't think I'll make it. Good luck to those who do!

Well, thanx I got that. (With the help of a nice little website on world times & dates...)

Anyways, when I´m logged out, your clock does NOT display Eastern Standard Time, it still displays Central European Time.

But that doesn´t matter, because I just found out that we are 6 hours ahead of you.
Which gives me much more time than I hoped for
