The lobby server being up doesn't mean that the game is up. It will be in about three hours and a half :D

People are counting down for the time server up. I think SE should start charging monthly fee soon knowing this.
GF is going to work in the morning, and then going to hang out at friends house all night. yay ^^ I need to go to sleep now so I can wake up at a decent time.
There is no way they can even begin to start charging for this peice right now...or anytime soon they have had so much bad luck with this game. They can on PS3 launch...but who knows when that will be probably not for another 8 months....if they even thought about charging like 30k people for this i wouldnt pay....none of us would.

Daylight savings time is confusing me. Is it ~2hrs or ~3hrs left?
No... well, yes.... only because it is a different time in the differnt time zones, hence they have been divided into zones designating their times.
Mocchi was sharing the time in 2 different zones at which the server will go live. GMT(zulu time, the time at which all other zones are based from +-their distance from Greenwich. 11am GMT is in 3 hours. 4 am PDT (daylight time) is also in 3 hours.
edit: to clarify I was confused as some of SE post say 4am PST(GMT-8) and 4 am PDT(GMT-7).
