thought it was midnight pst???
Yeah, but we are in PDT now.
I wish they would have based it on the time which would be relevant when numbers were released. They never do it right, it's always best to check the JP notes just to be sure.

Well glad you are around. Otherwise I would be spamming servmes and refresh on websites right now, lol. So thanks for that. I stayed up just to see if I won.
By the way (not that it matters much), if the 3rd number is 0 or 7, I will be pretty happy.

Japan does not follow daylight savings time at all. As such they kind of forget that america does as well, even though it is only the continental US that follows DST

Sorry I'm confused why does the clock show 1hr ahead if it's converted for my timezone?

Got spyware / keylogged / phished yesterday. I expect to be able to log back in to an empty account except for Rare/Ex non-vendor-sale items. Probably will log in and be on WHM, in the middle of a group of Hume Male A-1 face people, powerleveling them at some GoV page.
So... even if you don't win mog bonanza, be happy your luck didn't send you down that path.
* Just a reminder, update your spyware / antivirus / programs a lot in the coming few weeks. RMT are going to be in full force with their tricks to stock their coffers full in anticipation for the expansion. In the way I understand it, RMT sales increase during those periods due to demand so they are gonna get that supply somehow and people using repeat passwords across various sites, no security token, and not using the software keyboards are their bread-and-butter.

Also, I suppose they didn't really do it wrong. Based on PST, it technically is 12:00 AM. The Pacific zone is now on daylight time (PDT). But still, I completely understand why it is confusing.

Just out of curiosity, does SE post a video of them actually drawing the numbers, or is it as we've always predicted; done in secrecy (AKA: them fixing it so the lowest amount of numbers picked are the winning numbers)?

Chrome: IE: Didn't you say your time is CDT? That's correct if it is.

SE doesn't handle DLS too well for some odd reason.
Because America has to be different than every country in the world.
We measure in ft and inches instead of cm, calculate temperature by F instead of C, and above all else we move time forward and backwards like gods.

They drew it live at a Vanafest or some event one year. Like maybe the first time they did it. I remember the numbers came out in a weird order for some reason too.
THIS IS NOT THE CURRENT DRAWING!!!!! <~~~~~~~~~
YouTube Video Placeholder
That's right. At 2:44 he presses them in a weird order and they call it weird.

They are still a company and it's a silly mistake to do over and over again on every news post.

So when it's done, they record it, then whenever Vanafest 2013 takes place, they show it on screen?

This is the time it ends, so it should say 3 AM for you if you live in CDT.

The last person who checks their marbles is the rank 1 winner.
Slycer said: They had their legal teams in each region working on the issues around the Mog Bonanza to get it resolved. They're happy to announce that they've come to a settlement on this and will be able to resume hosting the Bonanzas with the next one scheduled for either late January or February. Usual suspects will be around including Cat's Eye, AA weapons, etc. (they asked for recommendations, too), and obviously more details will be announced as it gets closer.
