CD Projekt RED Group Spring Conference live tomorrow at 5:00 PM GMT

People say it is not spring until you can plant your foot upon twelve daisies. GOG.com has proven otherwise, and you knew it’s spring after eight daisies already: Legend of Grimrock, Treasure Adventure Game, Trine, The Whispered World, Machinarium, Wing Commander 4, Spacechem, and Darwinia. However, as many a sudden change takes place on a spring day, we’re about to reveal another four amazing daisies tomorrow during CD Projekt RED Group Spring Conference.

The harvest of a whole year depends on what you sow in the springtime. And this year, oh boy, we’re into some serious sowing. During CD Projekt RED Group Spring Conference we will:
* tell you what has changed on GOG.com in case you missed it
* offer a sneak peek at future GOG.com releases
* give you a special gift as a big, sweet “thank you” to our users

Remember that those who arrive to the spring first, drink the purest water-- or
Remember that spring won't come from one flower--we need plenty of you to watch the CD Projekt RED Group Spring Conference!

It really is not that simple.

"In the United Kingdom, GMT is the official time only during winter; during summer British Summer Time is used. GMT is the same as Western European Time."

It will be 6pm here in the uk as its 12.55 just now (lunch time about to loom at work) so although your saying 11.42 GMT it aint thanks to clocks moving forward an hour last weekend.

gameon: I think you guys must be trying to wind me up. Seriously http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=136
No, we're not. Note that this site explicitly says it's 12:57 BST. And BST is not the same thing as GMT. And yes, this means that right now, Greenwich, London is not on Greenwich time. I'm not making it up, you know :)

gameon: Ahh, you guys in germany must still be on gmt, but uk is on summer +1
In winter:
UK is on GMT (GMT+0), Germany is on CET (GMT+1). 12:00 noon in London is 1:00pm in Berlin.
In summer:
UK is on BST (GMT+1), Germany is on CEST (GMT+2). 12:00 noon in London is still 1:00pm in Berlin.

(Technically, the offsets are always calculated from UTC which is the yardstick for all time measurements everywhere, but this should be easier to understand.)

GMT doesn't change with Daylight Savings Time, UK's timezone does.

Why not just put a counter on the front page? That would save everyone a whole world of trouble.

Haha, I only have 8, of which 3 have been taken. Unless I messed up my count, this new giftlist is annoying.
