araziel Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Y'all! Goodness me! Oh my yankeedoodledoo! That's what one'd say in Texas, right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalidane Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hmm - the countdown appears to be based on the browser local time. ie - it's telling me the Kickstarter starts at 8am on Tuesday, New Zealand time. That would make it 2pm on September 30 in Texas. no. Reaper Miniatures October 1, 2013. 9 am CST. Exactly. But as of now, the countdown for me says 2 days, 22 hours and 12 minutes. I have the same. Also am in NZ. Odd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarlen Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It's a Javascript countdown that doesn't specify a timezone, so it will be in the timezone of whoever is looking at it. Looking at the config options, it would be better to set it with a UTC time, rather than "local" time. Throw this at Kit: $('#countdown_dashboard').countDown({ targetDate: { 'day': 01, 'month': 10, 'year': 2013, 'hour': 15, 'min': 0, 'sec': 0, 'utc': true } }); :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beagle Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) No Englishman could ever see a post with the word 'tea' in it as a bad thing I imagine owners of other miniatures kickstarters that are underway, or about to launch have seen this announcement and hung their heads to cry Edited September 28, 2013 by ladystorm 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buglips*the*goblin Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It's like they knew not only when I'd have the most cash, but almost the exact minute I'd get back from the bank. Weird. Or ninja spies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
