Is it the real GMT or /time one? >_>
(actually, these are real GMT, not /time one <_<)
Both those and /time are the real GMT, actually.
Presenting the results of the 86th Deneb Run:
The Racers:
Katrina Le-Feir - Union Racer, PA Councilor and rapidly rising star of the circuit.
Blue Streak - Itani pilot, member of the CDC and the best Deneb Racer in the history of the event.
Aleksey - Union pilot, member of VPR, he races from time to time.
MR. Bean - Itani pilot and Councilor of ITAN, this was his first race.
Shanis Tolos - Itani pilot, member of ITAN, this was his first race too.
The Results:
Blue Streak | 30:29 | EC-107, FCPC, no weaponry
Katrina Le-Feir | 31:50 | Orion Convoy Guardian Hornet, FCPC, no weaponry
Shanis Tolos| 33:28 | Orion Convoy Guardian Hornet, FCPC, no weaponry
MR. Bean | 34:05 | Orion Convoy Guardian Hornet, FCPC, no weaponry
Aleksey | DNF | Orion Convoy Guardian Hornet, FCPC, no weaponry
Observations:
1) Orion Hornet Night! Apart from Blue Streak, everyone else flew the ubiquitous Guardian Hornet.
2) A lot of storms meant that the order of racers changed constantly throughout the race. Only Blue Streak, again, kept his position from the moment the race entered Dominionspace.
3) This report is 30% recycled material.
Next week's Run is in the late slot, so see you in one week!

Compare /time and greenwichmeantime.com
GMT is not effected by DST (whatever english schoolgirls say).
/time is actually BST (British Summer Time)

Sorry, I have only one answer to this:
ORLY?
It's BST. It doesn't clash with GMT. Just look at greenwichmeantime.com

Thanks Joyce for hosting, BS for winning and the racers for participating. Even with the massive amount of storms around (damn timezones and the lack of a scout lap!) it was very fun, and very tight.
Scouting is boring anyway... ;P
I agree that's mildly boring. But in my short experience, it's critical for the victory.
