The timezones listed in the Gameday thread get pretty weird and confusing sometimes. Some hosts use GMT, some use EST, some use something else entirely, and they don't make sense for where the Gameday is being hosted. Why list the time for a US Gameday in GMT, which is more appropriate for Europeans, etc. There's always a link to a timezone converter in the thread, but it's a pretty clunky way to solve something this simple.
The gameday times should be listed in a universal time standard, like UTC, or we should list two or three common timezones. At the very least, list the time the Gameday starts in a timezone appropriate to the region. The timezone converter should be relegated to more obscure timezones or people who don't know what UTC is, it shouldn't be a necessity for finding out when an event begins because there is no standard timezone used by Gameday hosts.
