What time is The Big One announcement?

LongacreLongacre Posts: 16,717 ✭✭✭
Does anyne know what time The Big One announcement is (in EDT)? I have to catch a flight at 1 AM, which is 2 PM EDT, so I hope I can check the boards before I am wheels up. Otherwise, I will need to be in a frothy frenzy for the entire five hour flight to PEK.

    From HRH's first post (as amended) in "The Big One" thread:

    IMPORTANT NOTE...Due to scheduling of rooms, etc. we have moved the announcement of "the Big One" to Thursday from Friday. New time is 10:30 Thursday, March 25 at the Ft. Worth Mid-Winter ANA. . . . At 10:30 on March 25, 2010 in a gathering place to be determined we will unveil the "next step"...the "new way"..."the big one." If you are going to be at the ANA convention in Fort Worth, don't miss it. If you're not going to be at the ANA, check the pcgs.com home page at 2:00 CST for all the info.

    The live announcement will precede the website update by about 2 1/2 hours. will any any forumites be in attendance at the live announcement in Ft. Worth; and, if so, have any agreed to serve as official reporter of the event? We need a pool reporter.

    I agree! I hope at least one person reports after 10:30...actually, I bet we'll have about 20 threads started about it. Should be an interesting forum day!

    How do you get 2 1/2 hours difference? It looks like it is 3 1/2 hours (10:30 CST/8:30 PST announcement vs. 2:00 CST/12:00 PST) on the website?

    No, realistically, it couldn't be a hoax. That would be extremely harmful to their reputation and business.

    Would be pretty funny if it were a Cook Islands $1 coin in that slab behind the curtain with a label that said "The Big One" April Fools!!
