Man, if only Aryan's final RP wasn't posted three minutes after the deadline was supposed to go up. It was a beatiful roleplay, too... if only it counted, huh?

Yeah, I'd surely be annoyed at myself for leaving it so late in the piece. Maverick was very lucky to get it in 2 minutes before midnight. Poor Aryan, got greedy. Better luck next time though.

Er guys... I posted the deadline exactly 12.00 on my PC clock. It still counts. Sorry. You probably shouldnt have said it was beautiful...
And my settings arent set up with the boards at Australian time... so I have no idea what they say.

The board clocks are only off by the hour, not by the minute. Disallow it, Shay.

What I'm trying to point out is that I dont care what the board clock says. Who says that's right? I posted the deadline at exactly 12.00 by MY clock. And that clock is what everything has ALWAYS run by. I'm not changing that just because you ask.
And yeah, fine Cheap Shot. I'm Aryan. But if you really wanted to make a personal claim, I would have started with "You're just doing this because the same thing happened with Scruffy Dog, and you feel bad for the guy."
Much more believable.
But no... he made it by my clock. The same clock that the deadlines have ALWAYS been set by. Sorry.

Oh, by the way. I also checked my mobile phone. The mobile phone I adjusted only last night to the EXACT time.
They were the same.

Everybody else runs by the board clock, why should we leave it up to chance? You know, I'd like to hear Bond's take on this. I really would, because I need a laugh right now.
Read the board clock. It says 8:03.

Well, let's see. I'm posting this at 1.40am.
*waits for 1.40am*
I don't see that there's any point to this since it doesnt matter, but the experiment will continue.

It's a damned shame when the guy called Cheap Shot is the only guy who cares about the FUCKING RULES ANYMORE!

Ok... here's how it works.
I posted that last OOC at 1:40am. The board said it was posted at 9.45am.
Therefore, there is a difference of 8 hours and 5 minutes.
So, if we look at Aryan's post of 8:03am, what can we assume?
Well, since there's a difference of 8 hours and 5 minutes, if you subtract that from the 8.03am time... then Aryan's time ends up being 11.58pm Australian time. Very, very close... but close enough.
Dont believe me? Try it yourself.
I'm glad you care about the rules. Now if only you could accept them.

Remind me againw why we're going by your fucking clock. I refuse to accept that. How do you justify that?

yeah...i remember a time when the rules counted. where the prez wasn't such a dictator and changed everything at the last three minutes. those were the days.
what a fucking travesty it is that aryan's roleplay should be counted.

And who hates me more than Spaz? We are but men, bonded by a love of the rules around here. Please, Shay. Listen to this man.
Meanwhile, I wonder what the AWO Commissioner has to say about this....

ARGGHHH!! You're insufferable!!!
Fine!! Tomorrow I'm ringing up and finding out the EXACT time. And if my phone AND PC (even though the PC updates itself and the phone was set via automatic update from the network also, and even though I know for a fact that your PC clock would have allowed Aryan an extra minute) are out by over two minutes, I will bow down and proclaim you lord of the universe.
I can't believe our world Champion would go so crazy over this.
I'm a dictator? All I did was let a guys RP count when it was before a deadline. You're the crazy bastards saying it shouldnt for some reason.
Do you realise how annoying you are? I realise now why the Scruffy Dog Vs Cheap Shot fued was so damned draining.

Well I'm definitely opposed to Maverick's point of view, considering that we're completely different people and would therefore obviously have differing opinions. As such, I would have to agree with Shay, however, it does seem appropriate that for board matters one would count by the board clock. However, Shay has always gone by his clock and it would seem that it's pretty close to everyone's clocks. Therefore, nobody wins.
