    Odd Question

    Has anyone ever bought their Cactpot tickets on a Saturday evening and then had the cashier tell you the next morning that the drawing still hasn't happened?

    I bought them about 20 minutes before the new drawing was due.

    Found the cause. For some reason my server is now on GMT and is 8 hours ahead of my actual time.

    Huh, never heard of that. Though i do know where i live that the servers ignore daylight saving time, so twice a year the time that resets occur changes by an hour.

    I believe all the servers are on GMT. Cacpot drawing happens at the same time for all servers, no?

    No. From personal experience drawings on the NA servers happen about 6 hours later than on the EU servers - which corresponds to the difference in timezones.
