Scoreboard Time

This is a suggestion for the Time on the scoreboard in game. Usually it shows the time for CST which is of no use if you don't live in that time zone. My suggestion is to either allow every player to change the timezone with a command or to have a different timezone depending on the region the server is in, for example the EU servers could have GMT but all US servers still have CST.

I was thinking about this as well. I live around Toronto, ON, which means my timezone is EST. I would like the chance to be able to change the scoreboard time to my timezone. Thanks for posting this, and hopefully somebody will bring it up at the next mod meeting?

One of the primary reasons the time exists on the scoreboard is so we, as developers, can more easily diagnose issues when sent a screenshot. The timezone of all of our servers is in CST, which means that if someone sends us a screenshot of a plugin issue, we can easily find the necessary debug information we need in the server log file, just by looking at the scoreboard in the screenshot.
It also exists so our staff can request a lookup of potentially dubious evidence in a server's chat logs.
