TrèsFluke HAS MOVEDMar 20

I just had a thought. Who would like to participate in a group watch of "The Princess Bride", in honour of the memory of Rob Reiner?

UPDATE: We can determine a time and date in the thread. 🧵

UPDATE 2: Grab your DVD copies or cue up the streaming service of choice, we're going to play the movie on Sunday afternoon at 4 PM EST. The hashtag is:

#PrincessBrideWatch

Alright everybody, it looks like the poll has landed on Sunday afternoon.

To give people plenty of time to eat something, go to the bathroom, etc before Monsterdon starts at 9 PM Eastern in my TZ, how bout 4 PM Eastern?

@darrenmorin EST or EDT? I'm in SK and we don't change our clocks, we're GMT -06:00 all year round. Currently 2 hours earlier than Toronto.

@sbjornda Eastern Standard Time.

@darrenmorin I'm curious. What part of the world currently observes that time? I Thought you had all switched to Daylight Savings Time by now? I thought I knew of all the places in North America that stopped switching time twice a year, and none of them were in the Eastern zone.

@sbjornda I'm in Eastern Ontario. They've spoken about switching us to DST or whatever for years but for some reason I think NY state is the hold-up.
