Changing my system clock to August 23rd reveals that the countdown timer ends at 6:07AM

Some people may have already known this, but I for one was lead to believe that the timer ended on 6:07PM. (and perhaps this time is when it changes to the next day)

This is just to clarify.

Changing your system clock to a further date does nothing to reveal what will happen in 1, 15, and 28 days.

Other things:
Halo 2 will not come out August 24th - FACT
A demo for Halo 2 will come out August 24th - Unless Shishka or another mod says otherwise, it's FALSE

8:07 AM CST
9:07 AM EST

Etcetera etcetera. It compensates for your computer's time zone. I already mentioned this somewhere... Kinda of strange to me that is it so specific. I mean. 6:07? Why not 6:00 or some other even hour? Perhaps of note is that by Greenwich Mean Time it ends at 11:06 AM. Also of note may be that when it reaches "0" it doesn not count from 'negative' seconds to 'negative minutes' to negative hours, it cuts directly to -1 day -1 hour -1 minute etc.

6:00 + 7 (bungie's favorite number) = 6:07 LOL
