Could you show the event ending time in more then one time zone. UTC keeps the time concise but its a time zone that I have literally only seen when playing MWO and creates confusion about when an event ends.

For example I though I had until the May 27th to post for the "Thanks for the Boosted event." When I went post on the forum around 6:20PM on the 26th I found it closed. This may seem like a small thing, but clearer communication about times will prevent confusion and prevent me from complaining.

I've seen other games use countdown timers and/or list the ending time in multiple time zones throughout the world to keep things clear.

Hello there... I don't know if this will help, but you might try referencing the "MWO Clock" page @ https://mwomercs.com/clock as something to reasonably assist you in keeping track of time limits. Failing that, if you have a smartphone with a Clock App of some kind that can do multiple time zones, then you might rig that to enable you to track PGI's local (UTC -8:00 when Non-DST) time zone. :huh:

I really do wish that they would make the page which I'm pointing to more accessible to the Community as a whole. It would help with a lot of these time-related issues. Even so little as a spot in the footer below the News & Twitch links would be enough to handle it. :(
