I did talk about time zones in my earlier post but this is all about zones from where Virily users come.
Once we get pally with some it is nice to be online when our friends are online. I have more or less a grip of it now but what about you?
Here is a quiz about time zones. Hope you will pick correctly
Just for your knowledge
“What does GMT stand for?
GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time, the local clock time at Greenwich. From 1884 until 1972, GMT was the international standard of civil time. Though it has now been replaced by Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), GMT is still the legal time in Britain in the winter, used by the Met Office, Royal Navy and BBC World Service. Greenwich Mean Time is also the name of the time zone used by some countries in Africa and Western Europe, including in Iceland all year round.”

You got 6 out of 8 right!
Great
I think this knowledge was necessary for your profession.
I got 5 a really awesome quiz.
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it
how do you have half a time zone?
Half would be 30 minutes?
I get the concept, but you’re either in the time zone or you aren’t. There’s no such thing as Pacific Standard and a half…
Sorry I do not get you. Can you explain? Is there such a thing in the quiz?
question #5 claims India is GMT+5.30 but my point is you gotta round up or down… there’s no such thing as a half time zone
India Standard Time
Time zone in India (GMT+5:30)

This is how it is and there is nothing I can do even if Alex Ledante wants it changed (lol)
hahahaa you may be ready to give up, but I am going to have the mayor of time zones removed from office for incompetence!
Here’s another one
Nepal Time
Time zone in Nepal (GMT+5:45)
Wednesday, 31 July 2019, 8:28 am?
that’s it, the mayor of time zones is going down…
You got 8 out of 8 right!
Perfect. You rock!
Wow!!! That was indeed a rocking performance.
You got 2 out of 8 right!
Could be better
OMG!!! Let’s just pretend that my clock is showing the wrong time! :p
Once you interact regularly then knowing your friends’ timezone becomes easy.
Terrible score. Only one right.
I didn’t do well. I know the time differences in total hours.
Only half 🙂 well, I was right in the questions I knew answers for
Bad day for me. I only know people who come from a time zone that I got correct. But, I guessed it. Generally, I know USA is 7hrs behind my country and the GMT for my country is +3. You are ahead of us???
I am on a site for many years and there are users there from all over the globe. Therefore I know the time of many of my friends there.
Great fun and I am still clueless.
How well do you know the time zones of your friends here?
You got 6 out of 8 right!
Great
Both your quiz is very good.
I know what time it is for many of my friends here when I am online and that I suppose is good enough (lol)
