It's 23:00 on the game clock.

Hmm. But the game clock says it's about 20:40 right now. Which would give us just over 2 hours. But the Gazette post about the zombie attack times says 14:00 Pacific time, which is just over an hour from now.

So, which is it?

Ya, Hailfire, I just looked on the global forums and found out what's causing the confusion.

The guys in Europe have set their clocks back already, but the guys in the US haven't.

This is why the gazette should use the game time. It's there for a reason after all..

What I'm wondering is.. someone mentioned a piston lock that automatically closes the gate at 23:30... now, does it close the gate at 23:30 or does it automatically close 30 minutes before an attack?

It's 23:00 according to the game clock.

Trust me. We went through a LOT of confusion and time-zone shenanigans yesterday over this.

Me too D:

Wish I had remembered the map shows you the amount of zombies in each plot of land.  Hopefully someone rescues me before the surge.

Ok, cool. Figured it was important enough to make sure.

Alright I got my beta key, and I'm in The Boiling Highlands with all the other Bay12'ers that joined today  :D
Do we have enough people yet for a zombie attack?

I have to go for a few hours, hopefully we won't all be dead when I get back =<

Also, if all the bay12 people went out and died at the same time, would we all reincarnate in the same town? o_o

We have 33 people right now. So unless we get 7 more in the next two hours or so, we should be safe. It's possible, which is why I'm going to lock the gate just in case. But not until about 10-15 minutes before 23:00 game time.

You also won't get to see anything in the town overview while rookie mode is on. If you're curious, try turning it off, you can always turn it back on.
