There's a leap hour between 2:00 am and 2:00 am on 30th October during daylight saving time shift. Let's use that!  Website:http://0hgame.eu/ |

Sounds interesting. But which timezone is this in?

Superb idea! But you didn't specify any rules about timezones, so does that mean in theory that people have 24h?  |

Totally in  Are we allowed to take the plane from timezones to timezones before the 0h end ? That would rock. |

Could be fun, hopefully it won't be taking place at some crazy hour at night in Australia (too lazy to look it up now).

I hate these timezone jams, I never know when they are, or for how long.

I think Sos is european, so if we go by that timezone, the contest begins :
Mainland Europe (02:00 DST local time)
UK (-1 hour -- 01:00 DST local time)
East US (-6 hours -- 20:00 DST local time)
West US (-9 hours -- 17:00 DST local time)
Australia (clocks don't go back, but it'll be in the morning on Sunday, about 9:00 local time)
In Eastern Europe / Russia / Asia, the contest takes place at an unreasonable hour.
NO NO NO NO NO!The DST shift is 2:00 a.m. in every timezone. Just look up your local DST settings! |

This is an awesome idea, but I'm throwing a Halloween party on the 29th so I expect to still be drinking and incapable of safely operating a computer for the duration of the competition.

NO NO NO NO NO!
Alright. I'll delete that post so nobody is confused. You can remove the quote from your post too if you want. Confusion has only come about because you haven't been clear... so please clarify now: Are we to use our own local DST switchover hour? So countries won't take part simultaneously? |

My state (Arizona) doesn't participate in DST.

That how I understand it, all the fun of this is to do a game in 0 hour, not juste one hour of the day. A game on which you virtually didn't spend any time  And with the different timezones, the jam will be up for 24h, so during the day we'll be able to follow the others who are in another area of the planet and currently jamming. |

We used to have DST here, before we fucked Mubarak up. Now I can't make 0h games, I'm starting to regret the revolution. |
