~~Eve~~ players live all around the world, and it is good practice to give times for all scheduled events in ~~Eve~~ Time, as individual players are usually best-placed to convert from ~~Eve~~ Time to their local timezone while accounting for local quirks. All times for EVE University [[Attending classes|classes]] are listed in ~~Eve~~ Time (UTC). The UniWiki provides [[Timezones|a basic timezone converter]], but cannot account for the intricacies of (for instance) local daylight savings adjustments in every country.

When using the in-game calendar, players should note how dates in ~~Eve~~ Time will sometimes differ from their local date. 0300 ~~Eve~~ Time on a given day is late in the evening of the previous day in North America, while 2300 ~~Eve~~ Time is early in the morning of the next day in western Russia.
