You know how Hulu doesnt work for people in England because they have "Geo locking" or something on it (it says because your not in the states you can watch it) How about adding that to Pika Club.
E.g SS.Aqua sails 9am - 9pm (UK time) and then 9am - 9pm (US time - locked to just USA people?)

Re: SS Ships Suggestion
I have to come up with a solution to the sailing ships problem now this site has more and more members from all over the place but the solution needs to be one that will work for everyone, not just two specific countries.

Re: SS Ships Suggestion
problem i see with any way it's coded is that it'd have to be coded by time zone if you want everyone to be able to use the boat at their respective places of residence. idk how hard that'd be to code. lol

Re: SS Ships Suggestion
The reason most (all?) websites that have time based events use server time is because it enables consistency and stops the possibility of cheating via time travel when users are allowed to select their own time zone. It is also far simpler to use one time that consider multiple time zones.
Whatever happens the Adoption Agency has a standard time which is displayed in the top right corner of the page and this is the only time that will be used on the AA.

Re: SS Ships Suggestion
Okay the server time point makes sense, but that still doesn't explain why you don't just go 24 hours. It'd be fair to everyone IMO.
