Guild Wars 2

Hey guys. Just a heads up. A lot of people seem to be putting the wrong dates for this week’s matchups. 05/07 means May 7th. You should update all the threads to the correct “07/05” date (July 5th), as to not confuse the forums.

I think people in some countries switch them. It’s fine, the mods lock the old threads anyway.

In other news, America is the only country in the world

In most of the world 05/07 is 5 of july, EU matchup except to see it like that

My mistake. We look at the first numbers as the Month date. I was quite taken back as to why everyone was posting as “May”.

Although, simplifying it to American standards would make things a lot easier. The forums are already in American language anyways.

English =/ American language, 05/07 is also a much more international standard

Sigh. I’m almost disappointed to live in America.

Almost.

’Merica!

Didn’t we do this a few months back? It was like 20 pages of people going I AM RIGHT, NO I AM, RACISM!, MURRICA!!!

Make it stop. What even is “American” language. omg.

Sorry sorry. What I meant was that English was the office language of the forums, and in my head, English is American. I feel silly now.

I’m glad America is #1. But alas, this thread as gone way off topic. The OCD inside me just wanted everyone to post correct dates in the Match-ups forums.
