I wanted a very simple tool to show current and upcoming events using the new Megaserver Schedule. Enter gw2sched.azurewebsites.net!

A very simplistic site to show you what events are going on right now, and events coming up soon using your local time.

Check it out and let me know what you think! I plan on adding a couple more features here soon!

Thanks! Exactly what I wanted someone to write until we finally get an event fairy

The best feature I can suggest is adding a selectable timezone which can be stored in cookies. EDIT: on the other hand, you mentioned it’s in “local time” already… Mine is showing as 8 o’clock though, not 20, so that was a bit confusing.

And current time displayed above the events, probably even as a scrolling timetables for better visualizing.

20 level 80s and counting.

Yeah it doesn’t use military time, perhaps I could add an option to toggle that on off as well. Thanks for the suggestions, I could easily add a clock as well :-)

The background images are a nice addition.

In my country, we use 24 hour time instead of AM/PM system. So when I see 1:00 without AM/PM and not 13:00, it makes me wonder whether it’s a correct time or a -12 hours wrong timezone

This is very useful Edian, thanks! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. It would be great to have a full list of events throughout the day underneath the current and top three you have at the moment.

That’s very nice. Useful to see what’s on and what’s immediately coming up.

nice work tyvm. Maybe you could make it as an ingame timer like GW2-stuff.

Tried another timer today – http://gw2.limitlessfx.com/ – that one is less visually appealing but has a “killed today” button. Most people won’t likely have a timespan for 2 same bosses anymore, but still a nice feature for weekend when you can hop in several times.

Brilliant, the site works perfect, just tracked 6 world events with it, all we need now is an overlay so it can sit on the right hand side of the screen above the mini up showing the current event and next 2 or 3 upcoming,

Awesome work, don’t know why Anet didn’t introduce something like this when throwing events into chaos.

Great work, and THANK YOU to the people who put these together. To Anet, why isn’t this in the game instead of something we have to tab out to check after every boss????

Thanks for all the feedback guys! An overlay is a great idea, I’ll have to look into how to do that as I am spoiled with multiple screens and never used one.

In the mean time, the site looks great on Phones and Tablets! I made sure of that.
