EDIT. Here is countdown.
so....
reddit link says 667 days
the URL says 663
the article title says 667
the article says 665
but is you use this to count the days its 672
so which is correct?
9:20pm BST/ UK time.
10:20pm CEST (european time).
1:20pm West Coast Time
4:20pm East Coast time
Edit: Other Time Zones
Edit 2: 20 min delay now ;(
I made a countdown timer so the international people don't have to calculate it for themselves personally.
Well his total Karma is 68917 and he signed up for reddit on the 29th September. Using this handy tool I calculated Ty has been a redditor for 89,340 minutes (rounded down).
Ty has has 1861.25 48 minute blocks of potential usage.
His KPM would therefore be around 37.
A lot higher than Gallinari's 8.5 and Shaq's 4.2
The real MVP would have to be Yao Ming however, with an outrageous 82.8
actually it is the state of arizona which doesn't observe daylight savings time, but the navajo nation does thereby creating a time difference between them for part of the year.
Midlyinteresting: today is exactly 8055th day since USSR ceased to exist.
Edit: proper formulating would be actually 'OP indeed did math'.
This is my favorite type of drama. The type where people get so mad over something ridiculous. It's one thing if it's a spirited discussion, another when people start calling everyone an idiot who disagrees with them. Hilarious.
Also, I didn't see a single post where anyone actually looked up the answer. It was just "look at your calendar" or "ask anyone". How come we have the vast tool for finding any answer but no one uses it. It took me 5 seconds to Google this
According to this chart, the full moon would have risen at 02:33 UTC, which would be 3:33 am in BST of the morning of that day. Lupin may well have transformed that night (perhaps after taking Wolfsbane), and still made it to King's Cross by 11 am to catch the Hogwarts Express. This may well explain why his robes were so tattered and he was sleeping on the train.
Am I crazy or should this have read "When this post is 18 hours old"?
Post Time: Friday 1:05 GMT
Start Time: Friday 19:00 GMT
I realize the times are posted in the description but, it kept throwing me. Does pre-coverage or something start early?
Edit: Either way, http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?p0=103&iso=20141010T09&msg=Pro%20Tour%20Khans%20of%20Tarkir%21
Thanks for the times, but could you add the UK times as well?
I've already converted the times via TimeAndDateCom
Here are they for London, Great Britain:
Microsoft - June 9, 5:30 PM BST
EA - June 9, 8:00 PM BST
Ubisoft - June 9, 11:00 PM BST
Sony - June 10, 2:00 AM BST
Nintendo - June 10, 5:00 PM BST
Mildly interesting
The calendar of 2014 is same as the calendar of 1947 - http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/?year=1947
Once again, ruler of European origin has been forced to abdicate the throne due to the movement led by a Gujarati.
Most Catholic churches have a 'blessing of the pets' on October 4 http://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/us/st-francis-assisi-feast
Any only pet hating fools would claim animals don't have souls. Especially doggies. Cats... well, yeah, but sometimes I wonder if they play more for the other team.
789 people have been killed by GabeN's negligence.
Give summer 2012 sale; avoid more bloodshed.
You can probably take the time zone data they give for when the ejection arives then figure out which timezone is currently at noon to give you an estimate of the direction.
So the article says it will hit when it's mid morning GMT. I'll take mid-morning to be 9:00 AM. GMT is UTC + 0. So for 12:00 PM, that would be UTC + 3.
So those areas directly facing the sun when the ejection arrives should be:
- Middle East
- Eastern Europe
- Eastern Africa
Hype!!11! This is gonna be great! :) Is Kurt going to be in any of the events? óvò
Edit: Maybe someone could set up a calendar countdown thing like we had on the last one so there are no timezone confusions? I'd love to set it myself but I don't remember the website's name!
Edit2: Aha! I found the website! This should work.
Countdown to the event! -> http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20140913T10&p0=179&fg2=80c2da&msg=Mindcrack+Marathon+2014&csz=1

It has been approximately 11 days, 19 hours, 40 minutes and 15 seconds since the Arizona polls closed at 7pm (mountain time). http://www.timeanddate.com/date/durationresult.html?m1=11&d1=07&y1=2012&h1=19&i1=&s1=&m2=11&d2=18&y2=2012&h2=17&i2=40&s2=15.
Even if only a handful of people were counting the votes since then they could have completed the assignment. This is starting to smell very fishy.

First off, stop whining you fucking baby.
Secondly, you're 206lb and 5'9" at 25? You only have to lose 5 pounds a month for the next 6 months to have a fit body. Can you go 6 months without eating a burger while running 5 times a week? If so you can be in good shape. Of course you're not going to do that are you?
It's nice you want to learn a language. I've lived in several different countries and it's much harder than you might realize. You need about six months of continuous practice to be passible and you'll be garbage until month four. It's a lot harder than doing DuoLingo trust me.
Look, you can keep going from epiphany to epiphany your entire life looking for a magic pill. But the truth is your success is dictated by hard work. If you were able to speak a second language and were in good shape you would be able to get laid almost effortlessly. But that's 6 months of hard work.
Here this will help you out, I made a countdown timer for you. If you work out, eat right, and study a language come back here in six months and tell me if you'd make a little bitch post like this again
Good luck
Unfortunately I think it may be more 'unreal' than you think -- I don't this is a video of the moment of the announcement. The Google translation of the Arabic underneath the video o YouTube reads:
"Declaration of the army of protestors in Tahrir Square solidarity with their legitimate demands and the convening of the Supreme Council of the armed forces to issue a statement of their demands implemented"
Furthermore, the announcement came at 6pm in Cairo, which was 20 minutes after sunset. The posted video is shot during the day.
My guess is that the video is from yesterday when the military was said to be 'safeguarding the country', not today.
tl;dr: the OP is posting someone else's video for the karma
EDIT: Piggybacking off the top comment to say that you can see what time the bundle will be out in your timezone here.
<rant with strong language>
Argggh. I HATE it when bundles come out like this. I'm fine with "for the first 10 minutes" because then, even bots can't stop me from getting it (unless there is a DDOS). When a bundle says "Only ***** left!", it makes me think that the bundle will be bad as they need some sort of incentive for people to buy it. If this is not some merchandise or some shitty games, I will be fucking disappointed as shit because I bet that bots are being made as I fucking speak to buy at least 999 of these and sell them at market price of all of the games combined minus like a dollar. If this happens, at least 1000 gamers are going to start a petition/tweetspam to HumbleBundle to make this available again, but this time for a time limit, like the steam sales. This is ending up like buying console games, "Sorry, we are out of stock." HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU RUN OUT OF STOCK ONLINE, UNLESS THIS IS AN ARTIFICIAL BARRIER OR MERCHANDISE?? WTF?
</rant with strong language>
EDIT: TL;DR: This tier is not for humans, it's for bots to resell.
Want to see what time it is everywhere at once?. This is how I see who is waking up, who is bored at work, and who is wrapping up their day in seconds.
Bonus: July 14, 2013 would have been the date where 9/11 was equidistant to the fall of the Berlin wall, and the current day.

Thank you timeanddate.com
Those google calendar emails account for <13% of your current unread message (and that is assuming you signed up for google calendar on the first day it was released).
- Google calendar was released on April 13, 2006.
- 1966 days have elapsed since Google calendar was released.
- If they send one mail per day that means at most they send 1966 messages. 1966/15,289 = ~0.12859
If we assumed that all of your unread messages were from google calendar, that would mean you'd had a calendar account for over 14 years :)
The developers need to make it like this for everone on March 21 to both support equality and be the most hilarious tagpro event ever. Lucky pls.

You know, I need to go to sleep. Could we pick this up at 12:00PM San Francisco time?
the timer also co-insides with when Friday happens http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?msg=Portal2+maybe+released+early&day=15&month=04&year=2011&hour=09&min=00&sec=00&p0=137

The only clues we have for that are from "Avatar Day". Kyoshi made the island at sunset according to the painting, and the village remembers her killing Chin the Conquerer at sunset as well. Both agree it happens on the same day.
Avatar day is during the spring (southern hemisphere?), and the island is a little ways below the equator., so you'd expect the sunset to last roughly an hour to half an hour, depending on how far away from the equator they are. At a rough guess somewhere comparable to Argentina, so according to this website, at sept 23 the civil twilight is 1 hr and 3 min.
From that you could probably get some ranges on how long it took for her to make the island.
Edit a word.
DO:
1) Use Worldclock to determine what time it is in London and in your area - http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/
2) Calculate when the episode airs on BBC 1
3) Add an hour (episodes are 45 mins)
4) Come to subreddit and refresh
5) When post from TheJosh is live, click on it
6) Have patience, my young Padawan
.
Do NOT:
Go to Josh's site and hammer F5 repeatedly for an hour and a half until something happens
I don't know why I did it, but I found the birth dates and put them into a calculator..
869 days between Messi and Ronaldo
869 days between Thiago and Ronaldo jr.
So apparently it is true man.
For some reason r/sanfrancisco has attracted a core group of super angry, super judgmental followers who pretty much represent the exact opposite of the people I meet here IRL. They seem obsessed with judging their neighbors and attacking anyone less fortunate, while foaming at the mouth about how difficult the city is for them. Why the fuck are they here? Seemingly to lash out and gnash teeth like rage zombies and pass on their bitterness and anger to anyone not yet infected. Well, too fucking bad. If you need me, i'll be out having fun, eating some great food, and enjoying how beautiful the trees around here look in the moonlight.
Here you go, I put New York because the internet didnt work and I only care a bit about that bit
Time zone the poster's system is either: Fiji-Suva or Uruguay. All the posts before 201003031505 were posted one hour ahead and all the posts after 201103221328 and just until a couple of days ago were posted with no adjustment which indicates DST for the southern hemisphere and referring to this there are only two time zones that were changed in between those two dates. The posts in the last couple of days are posts that have been 7 hours delayed (not sure why). Just noticed the format of the posts with the time changes as well... Broken into 32-bit lengths for our viewing pleasure~ P.S. Also, as this has gotten so much attention he/she just posted one from 200707030409....
I've been researching and preparing for this, so let me pass it onto you.
First I went here: http://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/madison
This will tell you the time the different phases will happen and also which direction in the sky it will be. Knowing that maximum eclipse would be at 212 degrees, I went out in my city and picked out some potential spots (using a compass to determine direction) that would give me a good foreground subject to make it interesting. That way, I can go exactly where I want to shoot and I know where the moon will be.
What /u/dinoalt suggested for camera settings sounds like a good start: >f/8, ISO 400-800, 1/400th sec.
I'm going to play around with bracketing (haven't done much with this) to make sure I get a properly exposed image. I'm planning to shoot it with my Capital building in the foreground, which is usually super lit up, so I need to make sure it doesn't get all blown out.
This is all pretty unclear, so lemme clear it up:
12AM EST on 12/6 until 3AM EST on 12/7
Here is a countdown to the starting time: http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20141206T00&p0=179&msg=%23StreamADay365+Marathon
fucking THIS.
I raise this point with everyone who whinges that we don't have DST and that it's such a great thing
perth sunsets in Jan (no DST applied)
sydney sunsets in Jan (DST applied)
and on top of this - because the ocean is to our west we get a fair amount of twilight even after the sun sets.
>[01:28:08pm] <Naturallymade> Redigit: Would you consider uploading it late tomorrow (like midnight) so its released early in the Uk, instead
>[01:28:31pm] <Redigit> it'll prob be between 12 and 3pm EST
This was just said on IRC. But who knows when Steam will release it for download.
- EUW: Assuming it will be at 5AM GMT/CET
- NA: Assuming it will be at 3AM PST
- EUNE: Assuming it will be at 2:30AM GMT
EDIT: I know it's ugly. Only 1 will be right I guess but the specific times haven't been announced AFAIK.
Timers chosen according to the last update.
Better yet: look up what time your local sunset is tonight. Then just find a major city with the same sunrise time. Once you find a proper webcam, you can watch your own personal sunset, then watch the sun rise on the other side on the world. Only one cam-finding needed.
Edit: try here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/sunrise.html
Qatar is 1 hour ahead of Central European Time during the summer. Can they fit in 3 matches during night time that will also be feasible for the Euorpean tv market? Sunset there is around 6:30 p.m. local time during June and July. Average lows there in June and July are between 28C and 29C. *EDIT: Looking at some of the hourly temperatures around June/July 2010, it seems that the average lows are usually very late, around 2:00 a.m. etc. It seems that the temperature doesn't drop off by that much during the evenings.
No, it was released in 2000 and the 3rd millennium started January 1, 2001.
Maybe you meant it was released in the last 1000 years, but that's true for all video games (arguably except games like Chess or Go). It seems you meant that it was released in an arbitrary span of 1000 years that includes now, but I'm not seeing what you are getting at there.
Let's see. We'd need 1,211 more subscribers for that to happen.
Minecraft will be released in 156 minutes according to this countdown.
1,211/156=7.76
So we'd need 7 to 8 new subscribers per minute. Nope.
Reddit has approved this a bit too early. Weekly sale will start 9h30min from now on. I've prepared a countdown for you We're sorry for trouble. We'll do our best to start it faster.

I believe you mean the international date line? The first places are Samoa and parts of Kiribati.
The international dateline is also known as the anti meridian meaning the uk is halfway through.
Here's a Countdown for anyone who sucks at timezone converting (like me ;-;)
- And here it is in your local time.
- Countdown Because we love countdowns
I am pretty sure he meant a countdown clock for the start of today's event. Something like this?
Made this post for the people that are lazy with timezones. The link in the title should work, and redirect you to your region.
It is a common misconception that being more north means less heat in summer. The more north you get the longer the days get in summer. There is obviously a point where you get far enough north when it gets cold again, but there is a sweat spot in between where we live. Look at some of heat records for the prairies for example, they are insane. As well, I am into vegetable gardening, nearly all size records come from Alaska thanks to their long days during the summer.
If you look at the amount of daylight in Ecuador(on the Equator), it is 12h6m, while in Toronto it is 15h25m. Toronto 3 hours and 19 minutes more sunlight than a tropical country on the equator.
Please, oh please, use a better time zone calculator service. Like this one: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20140504T15&p1=64 (I hope I got the time right). It has countdown too.
it looks like they are counting down to August 25th 3 pm (15:00) Stockholm time. The zoo is not too far from Stockholm and I am assuming they are in the same time zone. Something must be happening at 3 pm on Saturday August 25th at the zoo.
Looks like it's a small game for the Digital Game Expo 2014, called "Danmaku Amanojaku Gold Rush"
EDIT Wonderful how they're always on top of things over on MotK. Read that, it explains everything.
tl;dr because I assume most of you won't click that link: Basically it's a joke game, not intended for release, made for an STG scoring contest at tomorrow's expo.
There will be a stream of the expo from 1:30PM-3:30PM JST (time zone converter).

Well, technically it's not a current event until it's past 6:00pm on May 21st 2011 somewhere in the world, which will be happening in approximately 32 minutes here if you believe Camping's statement about the rapture following modern time zone rules.
Of course, if you're really nutty enough to believe that, then I'd like to sell you rapture insurance for $1,000 per person. In the event of an actual rapture, I'll ensure your belongings go to relevant non-raptured family members or friends, guaranteed.
If you look at your calendar you'll notice it's also Robert E Lee day, Confederate memorial day, and of course "Idaho Human Rights Day".
The racism isn't even remotely hidden.
Super pro tip: If you use a Korean VPN you'll get it even earlier; as their release date is also the 18th but it'll be 14 hours earlier (in New York).
Alternatively, 7 Monday updates. Suddenly Rebirth doesn't seem so far away, hm?
Quite the set of games today! I don't think anyone expected Mousesports to 4-0 one of the better proleague teams, but they all played quite well.
Side note/ request: Monday and Wednesday nights and afternoons are pretty busy for me, so I won't be able to do these result threads for those days. If anyone is interested in doing a thread for tommorow's match in this type of style, let me know and I can send you the template I've made for the ShoutCraft results. Otherwise, I'll see you all on Thursday for Team Liquid vs Incredible Miracle!
The 3rd Millennium starts January 1st, year 2001 NOT year 2000 as many people believe, when using the Gregorian calendar.
The reason why the 3rd Millennium / 21st Century starts in 2001 is because there was no year 0 (or AD 0, 0 BC). The year before 1 A.D. is defined as year 1 B.C., so year 0 was skipped. (See below. Therefore, January 1st, year 1 is defined to be the start of the 1st century and the 1st Millennium.
Because one Millennium is 1000 years, the first Millennium ends with year 1000. The next (2nd) Millennium starts 1000 years after the first, that is in year 1+1000 = 1001. And the 3rd one starts 1000 years later than the 2nd: 1001+1000 = 2001. The same procedure could be followed for centuries.
I dunno what you guys are talking about, but Tuesday wasn't humid at all. It was actually the least humid day this week.
I've heard so many people saying it was humid... makes me think that people don't understand what humidity actually is.
Should be clarified that this is for US.
interesting...
I've been with my so for almost 3 years, we started by having sex twice daily and now it has decreased to 4-5 times/week... we also have had brief patches of no-sex, due to work travels, medical treatments or severe periods.
I could conclude the following.
Using this site: http://www.timeanddate.com/ we've been together for 1028 days.
We haven't had sex at least 30 days because of my work.
We haven't had sex at least 15 days because of her work.
We haven't had sex at least 30 days because of her periods.
We haven't had sex at least 15 days because of medical treatments.
(I should make an excel file too!)
That left us with 938 sex days x 85% chance of sex happening x (90% chance of us doing it once) & (10% chance of doing it twice) = 938x0.85x(0.9x1+0.1x2) = 877 times! whoa!
Our sex sessions have a 50% chance of a 40 mins sex, including foreplay (but only about 20 mins of PIV pumping) and 50% chance of a quickie (3-5min)(morning sex, sex before work, sex before dinner with her parents, sex after the movies and just before bed). We usually put music during sexy times and I've seen we can match a house music beat (~128bpm) by one pump every 2 beats.
So, every sex session could be 0.5x20min x 128/2+0.5x4minx128/2 = 768pumps!!! whoa! I guess there's something wrong there, but math doesn't lie! (or OP's data was skewed)
So, after 2 years and 8 months... We've had sex 877 times with an average of 768 pumps... my dick is below average in lenght, it will not tear her vagina (as some tifu posts i've read) but I'm absolutely happy with my 5 incher.
And the grand total goes toooooooo (drum rolls)....3,367,680" = 280,640ft = 85,539m! or 85.5km! or 53.16miles!!!!
MY GOD! Forget the excel thing! I should put an altar to her!!!.
I am going to use this all the time. I've just started trying to run a team of developers and designers spread over 3 continents and I've been flipping back and forth to this table every single day. Your tool looks a lot easier to tell at a glance what good times are.
Hmmm... Half Life was released on November 19, 1998. Half Life 2 was released on November 16, 2004.
That's 2189 days or 5 years, 11 months, 28 days excluding the end date according to this.
That means we're now waiting longer for HL3 than the people who played HL1 waited for HL2. Although there were expansions for HL1.

If anyone questions this, explain it to them this way: The distance of the Earth to the Sun varies by about 3% - 0.98 AU to 1.01 AU, as per Wikipedia. I picked NYC to be a representative northern hemisphere city; on the summer solstice, it gets 15 hours and 5 minutes of daylight, whereas on the winter solstice only 9 hours and 15 minutes. This is a 48% difference. Source.
edit: Also the different sun angle is a big deal too.
So I got a little curious about this for some reason. According to this calendar, it had to have been '99 because January 9th was a friday in '98. Hope this cleared up the confusion!
The sunset in San Francisco on March 29th happens at 7:30PM local time (http://www.timeanddate.com/sun/usa/san-francisco?month=3) with civil twilight (or pure darkness) not happening until 7:56PM local time. Wrestlemania 31 goes from 4-8PM local time.
This means almost the entire show will take place under daylight.
This might push the launch and recovery attempt into the daylight or at the very least sunset depending on how many days the slip is.
Edit: Launch moves forward approximately 23 minutes every day delay and sunset at the cape gets 1m later every 3 days.

Used this for sunset calcs and just a note that these are at ground level.
Here's a video of a DIV launch at 2003L sunset at 2006L just for an idea of the lighting conditions.
I believe that this is New Zealand only so unsure how many people will actually find this useful here. I tried using it from Australia and it didn't work for me.
For those who'd like a bit of a cultural history lesson about 'Waitangi Day' -- In 1840, representatives of the British Crown and over 500 Maori chiefs signed what is New Zealand’s founding document. The day was first officially commemorated in 1934, and it has been a public holiday since 1974. Source: time and date.com
Actually it's not, since we're currently in daylight saving time.
It's really GMT -7, Pacific Daylight Time (PDT).
Daylight saving ends on November 4.
You can see the current time (and our awesome weather) in Los Angeles here.
>Although many believe that Benjamin Franklin invented DST, some say that modern DST was first proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson, an entomologist from New Zealand. Hudson presented a paper to the Wellington Philosophical Society that proposed a two-hour shift forward in October and a two-hour shift back in March. He followed up his proposal with an article in 1898, and although there was interest in the idea, it was never followed through

Also the first country to actually Implement daylight savings time was Germany. They implemented it on April 30 1916, almost a full month before the US implemented it.
The hop from Gander to Nuuk is 1700 km. Nuuk to Reykjavik is another 1400 km, and then it's another 1400 to Glasgow. This will all be possible because the combat radius includes carrying weapons, and obviously you wouldn't do that in a transportation situation.
That's exactly how they got Dakota's from Canada to the UK in WW2, except they used Prestwick then.
> They sold 100,000 per day, up until it was cancelled.
It was sold from September 9, 1999 (the impossible to forget 9/9/99) until it was discontinued on March 31, 2001. That's 570 days.
They sold 10.6 million worldwide according to the wiki, which comes out to about 18,600 a day.
Even the PS2 only managed to sell about 33,000 a day over its lifetime, 100,000 per day would have been insane.
I'm not sure where you're from, but in America we have 365 days in a standard year. There are most certainly 590 days between the two dates you listed. You can use this calculator if you want to see for yourself.
Here's a countdown. If you click "times worldwide" underneath, it should display the time of the finale in your local time.
I wonder if the "Flight Suits" are wingsuits. That would be so fucking fantastic!
If it makes you feel any better, ecb2, I believe you. Everyone here seems to be skeptical (understandably), but this really feels like it could be legitimate; it falls in line with the other recent leaks.
EDIT: It's also worth noting that Tuesday the 19th is National Aviation Day in the United States. Perhaps that's just a coincidence, but still, it's interesting.
Countdown Timer for any wondering.
If it comes out November 24th the last Saturday of the the month it is going to take 53 days for season 3 to come out. Here I created this countdown! [](/priceless "CHAOS")
did you ever consider that daylight savings time rules change from time to time, and this is why windows has to be updated?
consider this http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2011.html
>This list displays a brief (but not complete) overview over which countries and territories that plan to observe DST during 2011. Note that the list might not be final - countries, territories and states sometimes make adjustments that are announced just days or weeks ahead of the change.
Here, I made it easier for you: http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20150302T09&p0=224&msg=GDC+2015&csz=1
Now you can stare at that counter in despair and not have to do any actual counting yourself!
This post reminds me of a GRRM quote:
Ten years from now, no one is going to care how quickly the books came out
There have been several methods of keeping time. Two of the most well-known of recent times are the Julian and Gregorian calendars.
The Julian calendar is named after Julius Caesar, who ordered the adoption of a certain calendar system (it had the same months and days but inserted leap years according to a different rule), and so it fell behind after a certain amount of time. The difference was that the Julian calendar was 0.002%. This introduced an error of about 1 day every 128 years. Naturally, over time this became a significant difference.
The Gregorian calendar was a reform that adjusted this to be more accurate. We are currently using the Gregorian calendar today. Now the error is 1 day in 3236 years.
However, countries adopted the Gregorian calendar at different times, resulting in some cases in weeks missing from the year.
France switched in 1582, and skipped 10 days, while Russia switched in 1918 and skipped 13 days ahead. The United States skipped 11 days when they switched in 1752.

Why did you get downvoted? That's completely true. See this.
Canada has thanksgiving on the second Monday of October every year. This year, that's the 13^th .

>###Character Name Clean-Up – Second Batch (D-H)
>_____
>In just one day we’ll be releasing the second batch of character names: beginning D-H.
>Head back in-game on Wednesday 13th August at 1pm BST and select ‘change name’ in the Hero interface to secure the name you’ve had your eye on.
>The list of character names will be published here and on the forums at the same time that the names are released. Check the list out for a little inspiration, but bear in mind that it will quickly become out of date as character names are taken.
>We're publishing the list simultaneously with the release, as we have disabled the name checking function on the website in order to improve performance.
>We're always looking for ways to improve things, so in response to your feedback, we’ve tweaked the process related to changing your character name.
>For the first 24 hours, players who want to change their name will require a minimum total level of 1,000 to do so. This will allow players who have invested time in the game to grab the name they want before newer accounts.
>Once the 24 hours have passed all members will be able to have a go. Bond redemption will not be restricted based on level.
>We've also been working hard to optimise the performance of the website to make things even easier for you.
