Forums Bug Reports Timestamp bug

At least in Finland we have timestamp bug _one week_ after changin daylight time.
_All years_ 6.4 (this day) klo 2:00 this change clock back to 1:00 like this
[01:59] <Fiiu> Heiju, mitä? maksatko jos mä...? =D
[01:00] *** Fortune has quit IRC
And this bug lasts one day. next night this bug is gone and come back next year

I say weird. BUT same bug is for everybody users in Finland (thousands... whole IRC system is come from finland

The same in Bulgaria too on 06.04 one week after the daylight change btw the clock on my windows is adjust the clock automaticaly mIRC should just continue logging
[01:59] * vena has quit IRC (.........)
[01:00] * hel has joined #burgas
[01:00] * ch3k3r has left #burgas
[01:00] * ch3k3r has joined #burgas
[01:00] * ^VooDooGirl^ has quit IRC (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
[01:00] * ivoni has joined #burgas

I'd call this a bad bug, but:
Computer clock: 0244
Timestamp: 0144
change computer clock to 0144
timestamp is still 0144
changing computer clock to 0344
timestamps changes to 0344
so it's impossible to get the correct time on the timestamp
so it's definately not a bug, It's a !$@¤%# mystery...

Reporting the same from denmark .. this happened last year at the same time; one week after the switch to daylight saving time, and also between 2am and 3am, after which it goes back to normal.

Info : Win XP / Mirc 6.03

same here in the uk... 1 week after we have daylight savings the USA has daylight savings, maybe its something to do with that, i dunno.

Spare a thought for us, Australia is a federation and twice a year for three weeks there are 7 timezones because some states have daylight saving (and choose to start and end it at different times) and some states don't.

I haven't, however, experienced this bug. Maybe it only happens to the top half of the world.

Curious how you arrive at 7 different timezones as there are only 3 different timezones excluding daylight saving and WA doesn't have daylight saving at most you would have is 5.

Yes it not last day, it last one hour. I dont know where my last correction go.


Edit: What version of mirc you use? I use 6.01

TAS starts daylight saving at a different time to NSW (unless they've decided to bring themselves inline recently) and QLD, like WA doesn't have daylight saving. 5 + 2 = 7.

Yes but unless they change by more than an hour still only makes 5 different times across the country. It will still only be daylight or standard time for that timezone.

april 05 was us daylight savings time, at 2 AM we put clocks forward 1 hour so it would be 3 so mIRC Americanized you all... AHHAH ...(-_-)

I don't know about where you are, but Arizona and a few other states don't take part in daylight savings time. :P so no gained or lost hour here
