So just before the usual restart (Clan restart day), I noticed the "Server Restart" warning.
The time there said 10:00 PST.
Issues with this:
1. PST isn't a currently valid timezone. That area is currently PDT.
2. 10:00 PST doesn't even work out to be the time of the reset (which is 00:00 UTC).
FWIW: Currently 17:00 PDT, 20:00 EDT, 01:00 BST due to daylight savings. It's also 10:00 AEST, 12:00 NZST, 21:00 BRT, etc.
Can we please just have times shown in UTC?
This is a global game. It makes sense to either show the times in the users timezone, or at the very least in UTC.
Note: My guess is someone changed it previously for a different reset time (ie: it's part of the message text, so not dynamically inserted), and no one bothered to change it back when setting up future resets.
