Found an odd bug in Warzone. It cropped up because of the time zone I'm in.
To rank warriors I take the "birthdate" (the creation date or date of last resurection) and rearrange the numbers.
Like Monday July 21st 2003 at 2:25:30 pm would become:
20030721142530
YEARMMDDHHMMSS
The old time zone was always a three place indicator (EDT PDT like that) the new time zone is EEST or four places....I do my conversion by taking the date string...
Everything that SHOULD have been 2003 was being interpreted as " 200" one place off.
Sigh...why didn't I think of that?
