Edit: Never mind, I understand now. Didn't understand at first because we don't celebrate DST.
Badging in a PvP zone?
If you are treasure hunting on a battlefield wearing an enemy uniform, there is a high probability that you will be attacked.
This is an enjoy-the-ride game. "50" is only a number, not the goal of the game. - Noxilicious

Not that it matters anyway, timed missions aren't based on the time on the clock, they're based on ticks on a timer.

As a graduate of the fine state of Arizona's public school system I can assure you that I can count. Granted I can't count higher than the number of fingers and toes I have, but I can count thank you very much.

Maybe you can count, but do you?

You all grouse because you have to change your clocks.
We in Arizona grouse because we have to remember whose timezone we're in now.
Wherever Daylight is saved, we need to have a mayhem mission to rob the place.

Gah don't confuse me like that.
Here in the land of Blighty our clocks don't go forward at ALL yet.
March 28th is when British Summer Time kicks in and our clocks go forward.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!
