LusterSoldier 11/03/18 8:47:25 PM #45:	@LeonhartFour With the November DST switch happening during today's matches, how are you planning to handle trend charts for this one? The matches will end at 7:00 PM tomorrow. Naturally, I would probably have done it like this: EBV/PHV - No changes ENV - 9:00 PM to 1:00 AM (after the clock goes back one hour) DNV - 1:00 AM to 5:00 AM TMV - 5:00 AM to 11:00 AM TDV - 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM It looks a bit awkward, but it still preserves the ENV/DNV/TMV ending at the 6 hour, 10 hour, and 16 hour mark respectively. These matches are still 24 hours long due to the switch as the starting time will happen an hour earlier beginning tomorrow. The bigger question deals with the trend charts after the matches have moved to a 7:00 PM starting time. I would probably handle a 7:00 PM starting time like this: EBV - 7:00 PM to 7:05 PM PHV - 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM ENV - 8:00 PM to 1:00 AM DNV - 1:00 AM to 6:00 AM TMV - 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM TDV - 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM With a 7:00 PM starting time, you lose one hour of the traditional day vote. That extra hour could be added to either the ENV or DNV. I favored adding it to the DNV because it would make the ENV and DNV both last for a total of 5 hours. But I could see a case for adding that extra hour to the ENV instead. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ \| ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! <cite>LusterSoldier posted [p:911758567] in Contest St...

LeonhartFour 11/03/18 8:49:54 PM #48:	Yeah, I'll probably just add another hour to the deep night vote because I imagine Europe will still be having more influence by that point anyway. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:911758694] in Contest St...
