    …is about 14 seconds in front of TOS’s countdown.

    Time dilation?

    Our clock takes the correct time directly from the server, meaning it’s always accurate. Their clock takes the time from your computer, so the accuracy of it depends on how accurate your computer’s clock is.

    You must be rather bored to notice a minor time difference like that. All I noticed was that it said “BACK TO EARTH PART 1”. There are some numbers under it, but they could be anything…

    That’s two hours slow.

    More than that for me! Says 14:07 when it’s really 18:13..!

    Cool as the countdown clock undoubtedly is, are you seriously saying that someone here doesn’t know how long we’ve got to go until BtE is broadcast?

    The Caesium-133 Atom seems to be spinning slower than usual…

    See, here’s the thing – I’m showing much the same divergence (maybe a couple of seconds more; 16/17 seconds), and my computer clock is synced to time.windows.com

    It’s always possible the server clock is wrong, of course!

    In my experience server clocks are usually wrong.
