if I see this:
Big God vs Rave 04:20

what the hell does it mean?
4:20 what? am, pm? my local time? china time? korea time?


worst of all if it is right next to something that looks like this:
Secret vs C9 3h 1m

which makes perfect sense. why can't they both be of this format?

\rant

if you read this please leave me a reply lol I'm trying to catch some games plz plz thx!!

It gives you a count down when it's coming up.
If it gives you a time it's in your local time in 24hr format. This only happens when a game hasn't started and it's past it's start time.

So the big god rave game was supposed to start 1:20 my local time and it shows the time since it's 1:59.
Secret c9 starts in 2:50 so it gives a countdown.

Given that you have the correct local time set. Assuming that, then it means 4:20am for you.

Although since I know you're in Cali, that should be the right time.

I'm actually studying in east coast so it's ET for me but thanks a lot of the reply guys.
i wonder if this can be made more clear in the UI, not quite sure what to do.
negative countdown seems confusing as well, maybe just a small text saying (late) along with the time?
hmm

fyi 0420 is military time, and yea kirsed is right when he says its in your local time. It's used in programming, and broadcasting and a number of places so that 420pm and 420am cannot be confused. If I were to do the same in military time it would be 0420 and 1620 (pm).

I would find the (late) tag helpful.

Hey since a bunch of the staff titled guys replied here, I will too.
Even though I think that this is the worst rant I've ever seen in my life.
