End Time (display?) error in CC Tournaments

  Hello,

  apparently, CC tournaments will close earlier than expected, or the time indicated is wrong agan.

  I created a one day CTTH. and a minute later it showed less than 15 hours to remain on the game screen, 9 hours missing.

  Same with another tournament of 4 rounds, 2 days each.

  It's due to end on May 15, 12:41 local time (CEDT), and now, at noon (CEDT), shows 3d 15h 41m to remain. Again, 9 hours missing.

  BTW, there is no am/pm indications on the CC tournament page, leaving some (new?) doubts about the finalization time.

  it's set to military time, so 5 p.m is 17:00 while 5 a.m is 05:00 etc etc...

  Thanks a lot!

  And, apparently the 9 hours difference is just a display bug. I received a reminder by mail stating:

  the tournament ends on May 13, 2014 03:41AM Pacific Standard Time!
  Details:       
  Tournament: Pennsylvania Open
  Type: Stroke Play           
  Course: MERION GOLF CLUB    
  Date: 07 May - 15 May       

  which, if PDT is meant instead of PST, corresponds to the time of day mentioned above.

  Alas, it should read "round ends" instead of "tournament ends" *chuckles*

  yw.
  also if you're looking for tournament ending times @ CC tournaments page,
  you should know that all times showed there are set
  to your local time (computer's time&date), so that might explain
  that time gap you're seeing.

  Good thought, but I counted that in already.

  The end is 03:41 am PST, and 12:41 CEDT.

  As a possible explanation, the "remaining time" count might take the PST number and wrongly treat it as CEDT(?)

  Now, this one is due to finish. At 7:51 h am local time, it has 4:50 h to go, but the indication is 49d 12h 50m.

  Now the difference is 8 hours - wonder why?
