    I just hacked this together today.

    It will show time until all upcoming matches; all database driven. I haven't styled it at all, but it works :)

    I'm really sorry to pester you again with this, but I think we really need to define what UTC/GMT is. UTC/GMT is the universal standard time which <b>does not have daylight savings corrections</b>. All other timezones shift according to the daylight savings policy in the corresponding countries. For example, PST would be UTC-8, but PDT (which is in use right now!) is actually UTC-7. I know that you define timezones geographically, so that UTC = "the time in London", but people could get confused, as they might look their own timezone up and find that the time in London currently is UTC+1 and subsequently show up an hour late. You might want to add a short description of what you mean by the different timezones.

    Cool, but you might want to make the "Starts in" column a bit more exact, as it could get ambiguous in between full hours.
    You also did the exact mistake I just described... It's 7am right now in San Francisco and the first match starts on 10am, but your time table shows "in 4 hours", since you assumed UTC to be what it actually is, the universal standard time.

    Very helpful. Agree with the above guy that a more exact timer would be even better.

    Fixed the UTC stuff and made the "Starts in" timer more accurate. Enjoy!

    Really fun batch of matches you guys. I enjoyed reliving my old TF2 Medic days as combat Gorge almost as much as playing against Hugh ^.^.

    Great job this weekend Hugh/Leto/other commentators!

    Really enjoyed watching for most of the day, and then watching the matches I played in afterwards. A overall great service

    Haha, that was nice. We didn't pay attention to the gorge lol until he came close enough to heal the harvester.
