In my opinion, that is up to those countries :) If Russia prefers to use a different time zone (to take the most painful country) that would be fine with me too. But yes, it would be good to have a good overview of this. 

Maybe something to add as a table in the FAQ?

Hi Vicenç,
I plan to turn on the UploadCampaigns and CentralNotice banners
sequentially, country by country, on September 1 00:00 local time --
and turn them off exactly after a month's time.

The first country to start the contest will be the Philippines (at
16:00 UTC on August 31), then India at 18:30 UTC, then Belarus, Kenya,
Russia, Ukraine at 21:00 UTC, then the countries of the European Union
and South Africa at 22:00 UTC, etc. The last country to join the
contest will be Israel, on September 13 21:00 UTC, and ending on
October 14 21:00 UTC (because they follow the Hebrew calendar).


I assume you mean that the countries with multiple time zones (like Russia, USA, and Canada) start when their earliest time becomes 0:00? Should they then end the contest when the latest local time becomes 0:00 (like Chukotka for Russia and Hawaii for the US)?

Cheers
Yaroslav
