12 PM Pacific Time is 05:00 AM European Game time?

It's 9 PM (21:00) CET (GMT+2 with DST) if I'm not mistaken.

Though, I always get confused about 12 PM/AM. I should be right if 12 PM comes one hour after 11 AM.

I assume that's why they originally said "noon". Noon is the 12pm around the time you eat lunch (1 hour after 11am), midnight is the 12am that you normally realize you've been on WoW for 6 hours straight and maybe after just one last run you'll go to bed (which ends up being 2 hours later). Or 1 hour after 11p.

Hope that clears it up. :)

I personally hit submit at 10:26 PST, after being hung up on the boots for about 10 minutes. (I was going through the leather boots from A to Z)

I though my time of 20 minutes was very good too.. untill I saw the 3-min guy =)))
Boots were easy, I just used model viewer to find the right ones.

Well, it's 3 PM Pacific... sooo, I'm confused.

Publicado por Smaragd

So 12:00 PM in Pacific Time is 21:00 Game time?

For European players, yes.

I wasnt at home all day, never got to try, i probably wouldnt gotten the earthbind totem right he first minute, but everything else looked like it mightve been a bit challenging

those boots are tough, i could only figure out the swords, warsong outriders, and the totem. I remembered seeing the swords somewhere, but when the screenshot was wrong i just checked "same model as" and when THOSE werent right, i remembered T6 pally and checked the set itself :D

I find the warsong outrider faction screenshot a bit dodgy. What the screenshot depicts is the battleground or the base. A more adequet screenshot would be of the warsong gulch enterance portle in the Barrens. It wasn't because it was hard, I don't mind difficult, but the screenshot made no sense to the subject. The Dal'Rend arms one was clever, but least it matched the database entry.

Yes I am bitter I got that one wrong. But as there's people posting allegactions of people cheating probably wouldn't of made much difference.

If you look at the Warsong Outrider's Faction page, that's where you'll find the screenshot in question. I couldn't, for example, say that the Dwarf picture in the first day's contest is the Stormshroud Armor - even though it is. The important thing is to know what the screenshot is linked from, not exactly what it depicts.

Wow, changing the times ftl =/ I guess those of us (like myself) who work for a living are screwed.

Having certain things memorized like what color of Exodar paladin trainers are, memorizing some random fact that Blizzard uses the name Hellfire Spineleaf in 4 different ways* (how many people have asked this from you in the past?), and having one of hundreds (if not more than a 1000) of quest names memorized (from Classic, no less) is far less common sense and detective skills than simply being a "gigantic WoW nerd". In fact, you won't win unless you are one or all the ones participating in the contest finally pass out on their keyboard when the next day's contest launches due to lack of taking care of themselves. Coordinated team efforts would also work for a win but I would imagine that's borderline cheating and goes against the spirit of the contest.
I'm not sure I would call it "having memorized" anything; I didn't make a conscious effort to remember what type of armor the NPCs in Exodar wear. Maybe mentioning that the paladin trainers were in the Hall of Lights isn't helping my cause, but even without that piece of knowledge, the "NPCs generally match better than a clothie just starting Outland" bit definitely isn't memorization either, lol :x

Anyway, my apologies if it sounded like I was bragging... I hate doing that, cos' I hate it when others do >< I guess some of the things I think of as "common knowledge" and observation aren't really either. Then again, I've heard that people think question #5 for Wowwiki's contest is one of the easiest and most obvious, and that one took me like a day and a half to finally puzzle out ;_;

ANYWAY! Congrats to today's five winners, those boots were terrible, lol :x Good luck on tomorrow's contest :)
