 Well, really the end of daylight savings time...

At least one game seems to have had it's due time for turns shifted by 2 hours. My guess is that the adjustment got applied to the gen times as well as my local time, so it looks like a two hour change.

Hosts should take note and check their gen times.

 The two games I'm hosting both got mangled by DST.

Seems to be a problem every year (escaped last year by setting hosted games on hold) ... I thought the switch was in the weekend (it is in Belgium) and since I have no gens in the weekend I figured the games were safe ... however the Tuesday 4.00 gen happened one hour sooner and after that gen the next gen was only 1 hour away!
For one game one of my teammates noticed it in time and the game suffered only one early gen (thanks Eric!), the other game got two gens ... Sad

But I'm a very lucky host and have a great bunch of understanding players. And a wonderful co-host as well who had solved most of the problems before I wook up in the morning (thanks Ken!). Smile

 Sorry folks. I did pause Stars! AutoHost for 9 hours that night/morning, but I did not put all games on hold. Guess I should have done both.

 The times in the game got changed about the same time, and that may have been the reason for a two hour change instead of a one hour change.
