What? What was that Moiraine? I thought everyone knew EST stands for Eastern Standard Time. The silly thing is that though the board claims to be in EST it's actually nine hours slow! In the east coast of Australia (Sydney, Melbourne etc.) it's actually about 6:30pm EST. So the party should start in about half an hour if we're going by EST.

No other nation calls their timezone EST do they? No, I thought not. Why would they. Sydney IS the centre of the universe after all.
