Seems legit, it makes sense to set a standard and post that with the initial tournament sign-ups so people have the deadline in mind before agreeing to join, for example: Posting is due 3 days from the start of the round and battles close in 3 or 4 days.
As far as time zone we should use GMT -8 since that's what the system is set too, at the bottom of each page in the forums it says All times are GMT -8. The time now is XX:XX PM.

I think it changes for everyone, cause mine says:
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 05:55 PM.

Ah, nevermind then, I'd say PST cause that's my time zone but I'm good with EST if more people use that.

Usually I hate when things are set to American time, but PST would give people the most time to post so I think that makes sense. Back when I was in tournaments and shit I'd always post at like 3am GMT. Midnight PST means the few Californian folk get until midnight and everyone else gets extra.
