Hmmm, last year it was 8AM local Calgary time. That way only one nerd wins... And yes, last year... I was the nerd....

If if its 8am local calgary time, its 10am to a lot of our eastern forumers....leading to some very un-nerdy results possibly. You'd still only have one winner if its was 8am local time.

It would be nerdier still if all the 8 a.m. Christmas Day nerds were to converge on the Chat Room for some hockey talk at the appointed hour.

Well there isn't really a point, just an indication of how active this board is at all times.

It's just silly fun, although as this thread indicates some uptight people just don't have a sense of humour.

I'll be lucky to be in bed by 8:00 am Dec 25 let alone awake and coherent enough to be posting.

Well, 5:38am Red Deer time right now. Up with sick kids (Yeah!). Not going to win any awards but I still found time to check CP out. That has to be kinda nerdy at this hour!

I wonder does it have to be this thread?

If not, then http://forum.calgarypuck.com/showthr...t=52046&page=2 as long as it's local time (hurray for waking up randomly and saying "hrmm I bet I could win that award")

otherwise, I've got 29 minutes to go. But is it fair that it'd be 11:00am here for me?

Killing time waiting for my 2 year old to get up. I haven't been this excited for Christmas in a long time, I can't wait to see her face.

We did the whole Santa thing last night, we got her a nice little red tricycle and a few other things. Got batteries in the new camera, lots of room on the memory card, we are good to go!

Christmas is so much funner with kids. Merry Christmas all!

Bah! The kids still aren't awake! So, all I can do, as I can't open presents, is try and post here, at 8am local time. What's up with that? It's nerdy is what that is............

Merry Christmas everybody!

Edit: Wow, some people have amazingly quick mouse fingers. I was watching the clock the entire last minute too! Talk about nerdy. It's too funny how many posters where trying to get this honorable award!

Is there a more precise way to view post times? I was watching the atomic clock on another computer

Time to have a few pieces of dark chocolate and then back to sleep. I have a long day ahead of me with a lot of work and cleaning to do. Not going to be the most relaxing Christmas.
