minor and esoteric timezone request

blakomen   May 13th, 2012 8:47p.m.

hey guys, when tracking progress / words studied and @ what time, do you guys use local times or UTC times? I ask since I travelled from NZ to USA recently and crossed the date line; so I imagine this is why skritter thinks I made 0 progress today but double my regular yesterday? :)

You can change your timezone in Profile-General Settings.

And the days change at 4am in whatever your Skritter timezone is set to, since that's when people are least likely to be awake: http://www.ted.com/talks/rives_on_4_a_m.html

right - so actually, you can change your timezone but only to timezones within the country you select (i went into that screen before but just assumed it would only ever give me NZ time zones)

thanks guys
