Well, I've dug down, and their time is based on a server, but i'm not sure if local time has any bearing on it.
Something to do with
time=1181000671
The flash movie seems to get the time from that, how I don't know.
CODE
stop ();
eventDate = new Date(2007, 5, 5, 24, 0, 0);
eventMillisecs = eventDate.getTime();
countdown = function ()
{
var _loc2 = server.time + getTimer();
this.msecs = eventMillisecs - _loc2;
if (this.msecs <= 0)
{
play ();
return;
} // end if
this.secs = Math.floor(this.msecs / 1000);
this.mins = Math.floor(this.secs / 60);
this.hours = Math.floor(this.mins / 60);
this.days = Math.floor(this.hours / 24);
this.msecs = String(this.msecs % 1000);
this.secs = String(this.secs % 60);
this.mins = String(this.mins % 60);
this.hours = String(this.hours % 24);
for (this.days = String(this.days); this.days.length < 2; this.days = "0" + this.days)
{
} // end of for
for (movie in this)
{
if (this[movie]._parent == this)
{
this[movie].evaluateFrameFrom(this);
} // end if
} // end of for...in
};
MovieClip.prototype.evaluateFrameFrom = function (variableClip)
{
var _loc2 = this._name.split("_");
var _loc4 = variableClip[_loc2[0]];
var _loc5 = Number(_loc2[1]);
var _loc3 = 1 + Number(_loc4.charAt(_loc5));
if (this._currentframe != _loc3)
{
this.gotoAndStop(_loc3);
} // end if
};
server = new LoadVars();
server.onLoad = function (ok)
{
if (!ok)
{
trace ("Server error! Unable to obtain date from server");
return;
} // end if
counter.onEnterFrame = countdown;
counter._visible = true;
this.time = Number(this.time) * 1000 - getTimer();
};
server.load("gettime.php");
counter._visible = false;
Any flash guru's care to decipher that? I'm not so brushed up on that sort of coding.
Also, if this isnt allowed, please edit/delete, thanks.
Edit: The php is server side, counting down in seconds.
Why it's different for some people Im not too sure

yeah i understand that - it says if there is at least one fan whinning about oblivion with guns the teaser will autodestroy itself. after turning into our president's new year speech. which causes the same effect basically.

Folks, I live in Virginia in the same time zone as Bethesda and it is only 7:49 PM on June 4. It will likely be another 14 hours before the teaser is posted. Theoretically, the teaser could be made available anywhere between 4 and just over 24 hours from now.
Relax. When it's up, it will be up and we can all watch it. Chill out.

When they wake up in the morning and go to work, we will see the teaser. That should probably mean about 14:00 for you and me.

Yeah, I've decompiled that timer also. It shows nothing interesting other than the fact that it's counting down to 00:00.

Do me a favor, everyone who's countdown is at 00, go to

For my bored and twisted personal curiosity
Also, the countdown timer means nothing for the release of the video.
Like the images, its when they put it up. Going by the past, its around 10:00 AM EST.
EST time is -5:00 GMT.

Its enough posting that, it seems that php getdate works fine, but flash for some reason does not read it.
And there is no point to research that anymore, because probably everyone is staring at 00.

I'll try again. People, it isn't happening yet. It is now June 4th, around 8:00 pm here. There are still 4 hours until midnight. I seriously doubt any Bethesda people are going to go into work to post the teaser at 12:00. It isn't going to be posted until June 5th, Bethesda time, at whatever time Bethesda decides to post it.
http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/You may be able to find your time zone here, you should also be able to find Bethesda's time zone. It doesn't matter what time it is where you may be; the teaser will be posted on Bethesda's schedule. Bethesda is in the Eastern Standard Time zone.

I've got it!
this.secs = Math.floor(this.msecs / 1000);
this.mins = Math.floor(this.secs / 60);
this.hours = Math.floor(this.mins / 60);
this.days = Math.floor(this.hours / 24);
that time you all posted is the time left in MS.
Take that time, divide it by 1000, divide that by 60, then 60 again, then 24.
That is the hours left, but it seems off, or there is some calculation i missed.
It returns about 13 or so.
As far as the 00 for some, only thing i can think of is its borked.
Also, either way, it really doesn't matter because the countdown is not posting images.
Like i said earlier, regardless of timezone, about 13-14 hours at least before you will see a trailer.

I actually think it is, with enough dividing and other stuff in that script for the flash thing, it looks like it points to 9am est, but that could be purely coincidence.
But since the timer goes days only, it can't get very exact
But Ill stick with my bet of 9am EST.
