yea it's of course my fault for not knowing when 12 PM PST is, I thought it would be 24 (midnight) since 11 PM is 23, and ending it at midnight would make most sense from EA's view, but of course it doesnt really matter when you end it. I just think it could have been made more clear when exactly it ends, and it would be nice if the ladder could be reset immediately to make sure there won't be confusion over whether or not the ladder has ended

Ok I found the answer on wikipedia because 2poc failed to make it clear...
It seems the AM/PM system works strange, and 12 PM is noon indeed, so then the qualifiers are correct. However, its still extremely stupid that EA decided to stop the ladder at noon, it makes no sense at all. This should have been more clear in the rules (use 24-hour system or clearly state it will end at noon).

Hope EA will learn from this mistake.

Did you actually read my post? Nowhere did I say that I thought it would end at 12 PM GMT, I was just saying that you took your information from a wrong time. Can't you actually view older ladder standings? Is your only source these screenshots? From what times are those? I bet it's the wrong times because many people thought it would end on 12 AM PST instead of PM, because of your post earlier.

For example on ra3board.com you can see my game history and see that I got my final rating of 1787 before midnight on 31 october (I think the times on this site are PST, or at least american) http://www.ra3boards.com/history.php?id=1090

These are the games I played on oct 31:
Oct-31-09 04:06 PM vs. [Latvia] Ra3_Latvia (# 5

Fire Island (2) 17:03 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 03:44 PM vs. [France] PaulAtreides (# 1219) Snow Plow (2) 11:18 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 03:18 PM vs. [France] l1kethisgame (# 566) Industrial Strength (2) 09:58 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 02:55 PM vs. [Latvia] Ra3_Latvia (# 5

Oct-31-09 02:37 PM vs. [Germany] DeluxeJaveline^^ (# 197) Fire Island (2) 08:34 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 02:22 PM vs. [Latvia] Ra3_Latvia (# 5

Cabana Republic (2) 06:03 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 02:15 PM vs. [Germany] Steaven85 Industrial Strength (2) 10:44 1v1 loss
Oct-31-09 01:56 PM vs. [Germany] DasDuelon Fire Island (2) 08:05 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 01:48 PM vs. [Latvia] Ra3_Latvia (# 5

Fire Island (2) 06:17 1v1 loss
Oct-31-09 01:09 PM vs. [Germany] DasDuelon Industrial Strength (2) 10:40 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 12:53 PM vs. [Latvia] Ra3_Latvia (# 5

Cabana Republic (2) 08:42 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 12:44 PM vs. [Germany] _En1gma_ Snow Plow (2) 04:38 1v1 win
Oct-31-09 11:47 AM vs. [Singapore] fierywinds (# 146) Cabana Republic (2) 16:55 1v1 win

Then I went to bed, following morning I'm still #1, I wasnt sure when it would end so I just played some unrated games (which you can also see on this site), so this did not change my rating. Then the ladder was finally reset and I played some games almost 24 hours after the last one in the list above.

Please take some time to understand what is going on, and don't repeat what you already said. The ladder should have ended midnight on 31 october. The screenshots you received are most likely taken at noon on 31 october, thus worthless.

I'm off to bed now, hopefully you can fix this

see you tomorrow.

To make the time stuff a bit more clear:

According to http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/

PST time is currently:

Tuesday, 3 November
5:10:18 p.m

Central european time

Wednesday, 4 November
2:10:18 a.m

And GMT:

Wednesday, 4 November
1:10:18 a.m

So, PST is GMT+8. This means that 12 PM PST on 31 october is 8 AM GMT on the first november or 9 AM CET.
Like I said at 9 AM CET I was #1 on the ladder, so either you're making a big mistake or I'm not seeing something, let me know please ^^

yes like I said 12 PM GMT as it says in the rules: "12:00PM PST"

Which is the very moment between october and november, so that would make sense. Since PST is 8 or 9 hours earlier than CET, the season would end at 8 am on 1 november in central europe. I played saturday night (31 oct) untill I went to bed at around 2 am, so still 6 hours to go. At that point I was #1 and when I checked again 11 am on 1 nov (so 3 hours after the ladders end) the ratings for the top4 were still exactly the same. I'm pretty sure you've used the ratings at 12:00 AM instead of PM..... (this is also suggested by the post about "ladder ends in 24 hours"

Obviously this would be a mistake, it says otherwise in the rules and it would make no sense to stop it at 12 AM.

Hi, it seems you have made a mistake with the qualifiers. I know there was some discussion about when the month ended, but in the rules it very clearly says it ends at 12 PM GMT.

"Automatch on the 1v1 ladder for C&C3, Kane's Wrath, or Red Alert 3 to enter the Monthly Ladder Wars Program. On the last day of every month at 12:00PM PST, the top 4 players will qualify for a mini single-elimination tournament." (http://portal.commandandconquer.com/portal/site/cnc/article/detail?contentId=e93a405a75504210VgnVCM1000006017780aRCRD)

If you check the rankings at that time you'll see me on #1, technique on #2, Torchlight on #3 and nukestrike on #4 (this was the same order as it was just before the reset). There was confusion before apparently you posted around 12 AM PST on 30 october that it would end in 24 hours, but like the rules state that was wrong.

So please change the qualifiers or explain very well why you changed the rules

Btw maybe its a good idea to reset the ladder on the very moment the month ends, and not create extra confusion by keeping the ladder open for 1-2 more days?
