Paypal Gaming Sale?

Closed
SolSys

Does someone know what this is about? and if it has already happened in the past?

Paypal Gaming Sale

*I saw it on the new Humble Bundle top contributors list.
**Oh, and before you say google it, it didn't help me much (just a bunch of info on using Paypal and selling games).

Edit: If your timer has reached ZERO and nothing happened , fret not. It just means that the people handling our money (a large chunk of us as far as i'm aware at least) either outsource jobs to shitty programmers or are themselves shitty programmers.

Oh well, the sales probably wouldn't have been that good anyway.

Edit 2: Site updated. Sales really aren't that good.

Thinking it's because of time zone differences, and as pointed out this could be a stupid mistake, but most likely it's running at Russian times.

Why it would use Russian times? It's on Paypal french site.
So French. And yes it doesn't take timezones into account. bad code :D

What kind of novice does that kind of a mistake?

BTW, Java 8 is out and it got a new 'Date and Time' API (seems relevant :) ).

Java 8 is not relevant to JavaScript.

On paypal.fr, the countdown counts down to 19:00 local time. If you're in a timezone other than UTC+1, it's not correct. PayPal can't do proper webdev apparently.

The actual start time is in about 40 minutes.

no it's listed at 19:00 UTC at press release, so it's still 1h 40m away.

I would expect better form PayPal. How hard can it be to code a proper countdown?

yep.. this is the mistake a student makes when making his first site -_-. Oh well... i doubt the sale will be very good, probably 10-20% off of some new games.

It took Valve 9 years to add a volume slider to the Steam Sotre so.... figure a clock!

BT, yeah, of course I know it's not Valve...
