I was running a bit late tonight to register for the 8pm Murrin game only to see I still had just over 50 minutes to register. LOL
I guess the day light saving issue has caught some of us out for one reason or another and I'm sure 888 will be able to rectify this in the near future.

I'm sure glad to have a day off tomorrow with the time change making it near impossible to play the feature or main events during the week.

They don't have daylight savings in Gibraltar so they probably won't even know about it.

With the daylight savings games are running an hour later than usual. So 2PM games at 3PM etc.

because we have moved forward an hour with respect to GMT, then the games should be scheduled an hour earlier GMT, so that they are still at 2100/2115pm ACDST and 2130/2145 AEDST
the side effect is that it will be an hour earlier for queensland players

That's my point
The games are already in two different times for eastern/central times.
QLD don't have daylight savings, so why change it?

because then the main event would finish at 300-330am in victoria, which i think we all agree is too late.
so i think it is better to change it to 1 hour earlier in qld but have it start/finish the same time in the daylight savings states
