Re: FRC Bag Day Countdown

Both of the above links are 2 hours past bag time when viewed on my machines in Arizona (Always MST, -7 UTC). Currently the first is showing to expire @ 23:59, Feb 21 for me when it should be @ 21:59 MST. The second is set to expire one minute later, so not quite conforming to R15 anyway (as an aside, AVG isn't flagging it).


R15. All ROBOT elements (including items intended for use during the competition in alternative
configurations of the ROBOT), with the exception of the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE per R21,
BUMPERS, and COTS items, must be bagged and sealed, by 04:59 UTC on Stop Build Day,

.


Not sure if either link is using the local machine time zone when calculating, but it shouldn't since the time is hardcoded to 04:59 UTC Feb 22 (23:59 EST Feb 21) this year regardless of time zone and not at midnight local.
