Start time oddity

Post by Puzzler »

When creating a game, if you specify a start time on a given date, the actual start time after clicking submit is shifted by a few minutes from what was specified. You can also see this behavior if you begin the process of creating a game, and then, rather than clicking submit right away, spend a few minutes exploring the various options. As minutes elapse, when you come back to the main game creation page, you'll see the game's designated start time shift as well. This suggests that perhaps the start time is being stored as an offset from the current time, rather than as an absolute, which causes problems if there is any delay before clicking submit.

Oops! This behavior dates back to before the time-of-day was part of the start time (it used to display the date only). Thanks for pointing it out! I'll fix it shortly.
