GOLD RUSH Times

    Now we have the "Gold Rush" that runs at two individual Gold Rush hours at set times every day: These are advertised as "18:00pm–19:00pm BST / 18:00pm–19:00pm PDT".

    First of all, you do not need to say "pm" if you are using a 24-hour clock, but let's see what that means around the world:

    18:00 – 19:00 BST

    AEST 03:00 — 04:00 (3:00 am — 4:00 am) - Australia Eastern States
    NZST 05:00 — 06:00 (5:00 am — 6:00 am) - New Zealand
    PDT 10:00 — 11:00 (10:00 am — 11:00 am) - USA West Coast
    EDT 13:00 — 14:00 (1:00 pm — 2:00 pm) - USA East Coast
    BST 18:00 — 19:00 (6:00 pm — 7:00 pm) - United Kingdom
    UTC 17:00 — 18:00 (5:00 pm — 6:00 pm)

    And for those that want to use their pocket watches in game:
    SOT "2nd Month" 13th @ 12:00 (Noon) — 16th @ 23.59 - Sea of Thieves Time

    18:00 – 19:00 PDT

    AEST 11:00 — 12:00 (11:00 am — Noon) - Australia Eastern States
    NZST 13:00 — 14:00 (1:00 pm — 2:00 pm) - New Zealand
    PDT 18:00 — 19:00 (6:00 pm — 7:00 pm) - USA West Coast
    EDT 21:00 — 22:00 (9:00 pm — 10:00 pm) - USA East Coast
    BST 02:00 — 03:00 (2:00 am — 3:00 am) - United Kingdom
    UTC 01:00 — 02:00 (1:00 am — 2:00 am)

    SOT "1st Month" 3rd @ 12:00 (Noon) — 6th @ 23.59 - Sea of Thieves Time

    So, for Aussies and Kiwis and any other pirates at those sort of longititudes, the "Gold Rush" is right in the middle of their work or school day, or in the wee small hours of the morning, when most are in their hammocks.

    Crikey! Thanks, Rare!

    All of these numbers are hurting my head... 🤕

    Please space it all out so it's easier to read.

    This is so confusing.. I live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Would my time zone be USA East Coast? 😂

    This is weird because I’m in Cali and I always sell 5-6 p.m and get extra gold I’m never on at early times

    should just put a small in game alert (with the option to turn off) that tells everyone when gold rush and double gold weekends are active

    it serves the community and encourages activity and gets rid of any confusion or lack of knowledge

    I agree, because I think that would be a good idea. This thread is a necro, BTW. 😉😅

    Thanks for the AM/PM and 24hour clarification, very useful feedback right there.

    Until each region receives its own dedicated servers the situation will remain as is. Or would you rather screw some other region so that things can be more comfortable for yours?

    Oooops!
