Mood: anxious

So, it appears ps plans to be back by 10:30am.

Anyone taking bets on whether he appears?

ETA: Anyone else think it strange that we haven't heard from anyone (post or comment) other than Malfoys and Millicent in three days?

If something horrible had happened, and Draco was all emotionally scarred and whatnot (and knew about this all beforehand, of course), would he still be planning practice and complaining about his broken cane? Or is he doing that to appear more normal, knowing that he couldn't change the date of the game anyway? After all, it's not like he could go up to someone and say "I'm planning to participate in some scheduled DE activities; could we move the game back a week or two so that I can recover?" I would just find it strange, since Lucius and Narcissa were doing so little to keep their plans secret (writing letters to each other in the community, etc.), if Draco didn't know about these plans beforehand and was just acting normal because he didn't know what was coming.

What I'm saying is, since Draco was acting so normal, either what went on is something he's had time to get used to, or he didn't know what would happen. Or it just wasn't very bad, but I refuse to believe that.

Does anybody know what timezone the N_A players post in? Because, yeah, Millicent has just posted this right? And it is mid-afternoon in the UK.
I was curious because I'd like to know when to expect posts etc.
Ahem.

I'm from Australia and it is one thirty in the morning here. I think that the players post in American time zone but I am not completely sure.

From NA.net -

How does the timeclock in Nocturne Alley work?

NA tends to exist in its own time. There isn't one specific time zone. Largely the time on posts is changed in order to reflect the time that the post should have been written at.

I don't think the question was when in N_A-time the posts could be expected to appear - I think it was about when the players can be expected to be awake and posting to the character-journals. If the players all live in Europe they would be active 5-10 hours earlier than if they're in an American timezone. It isn't very likely that players would post at 4am in the morning in their timezone, after all.

We don't all live in the same country or continent, and we do post at four a.m. our times very often. :)
