What is also interesting about this, is that for 5-6 minutes, this will show up as the last post in the thread, and the main list will not be marked as read until the clock passes the time of this post...

Does quoting or Quick Replying matter?

This is a quick reply at The time now is 03:17 PM

Question: who is posting from dynamic2 and who is posting from dynamic5?

[WSUCougar]

Whoa

BTW, KC Chief has two messages (time stamped 6:13 and 6:16) that already are appearing after this message in sequence (as #39 and #40 at the time I post this).

I'd have to get TARDIS (or some other program) to check, but I think the time was closer to right in my posts than in the two that "followed" them.

FWIW, the clock on the thread is two minutes behind the PC clock here.

[Mr. Wednesday]

Dola, kinda cool to see the bug happening in real time. :D

[kcchief19]

This problem started when the dynamic2, 3, 5, etc. issue started up, so I thought that might be the problem too, but the time appears at first glance to be the same time on all domain names.

The people above who were five minutes or so off -- would be nice to know if that was server time or the time on their PCs --- the PC time should be irrelevant.

edit: I must keep doing this with :59, as the time at the bottom changed right after I posted :)

One of the dynamic servers is set to the wrong time, and because gamespy is using load balancing this is affecting the order of the posts.

FWIW - All times are GMT. The time now is 03:17 AM

This board will self-destruct in ten... nine... eight... six...

Six? What happened to seven?

Just kidding! Seven... six... five... four... three... two... one... have a nice day.

Thank you.

A quick run-through of the servers and I got the following:

dynamic2 - 10:42
dynamic3 - 10:43
dynamic4 - 10:43
dynamic5 - 10:48
dynamic6 - 10:43

Then I checked dynamic2 again -- still 10:42.

dynamic2 is a minute or so behind, and dynamic5 is 5 minutes or so ahead.

Then I checked dynamic2 again -- still 10:42.

dynamic2 is a minute or so behind, and dynamic5 is 5 minutes or so ahead.

So basically, we should avoid using dynamic5? (though I posted from there earlier in the day and had no problem)
