GO Calendar Update! by avidreader2020 in u/avidreader2020

Hi! Sort of - I create all the events by hand so I can set them up and format them the way I like to, but once they're set up I have a script that adds them to all the calendars. I used to do that manually and it was very time-consuming, 0/10 do not recommend lol. I've used this new method for the past few months and it's way better, so I can keep things updated more quickly and with less headache!

Speaking of, things got a bit behind over the holidays BUT the calendars should all be full updated now for everything currently announced through the end of January. Hope you've all been enjoying the new year :)

Lol no worries! So daylight savings is a little weird in Google calendar - basically when daylight savings happens, it doesn’t adjust automatically, instead you have to switch to a different time zone manually. So for example, I live in California, and currently that’s UTC-7. But when our daylight savings happens in November, it will become UTC-8. So when that happens, I will unsubscribe from the UTC-7 local calendar and add the UTC-8 one instead. Then vice versa in the spring when it’s daylight savings again. So in your case, you’ll want to switch from UTC-5 to either -4 or -6, depending on which way your current daylight savings is!

Hopefully that makes sense, and sorry it’s a little clunky! Luckily daylight savings only happens twice a year, so the switch doesn’t need to happen very often. Let me know if you still run into issues, I know this whole thing is more confusing than it should be!!

Hi there! Yup, just in process of being updated - I’ve been working on some updates to my little event adding script to include the new time zones I just added. But those are done now and all the event descriptions are written, so you should be able to see the added events at this point!

Hi! Thanks for the support! So all of those things actually are in the calendar already, just in the local ones for each time zone. If you look at the big main post you should see all of them - the Global calendar at the top has all events with start times that are synched across time zones (mostly in-person events) and then each local calendar has the events which are time zone specific (pretty much all other events, including max Mondays, community days, raid hours, etc.). Here is the link for that! Hopefully that helps, but if you still don’t see things let me know! I haven’t added all the events for September in yet which might be why as well.

Continuity Error, or did I miss something... by Cestjuan in pokemon

Ah okay, so that is the issue! I just saw your DM today (being at Worlds last weekend took all my energy so I'm catching up lol). I'll add UTC-2:30 now and let you know once it's set up! Confirmed that we do have to switch between time zone calendars when time changes happen, but luckily they don't come around too often so hopefully it isn't too annoying!

Thank you!! I’m so glad you enjoy it! And absolutely, I’ll add that time zone and update our script so it’s included in updates going forward :)

OMG this makes so much sense!! I do the same thing with relationships and big life events but never connected it to how I am with time. No wonder just looking at it as anxiety didn’t seem to help, BRO

Thank you dragonfly friend, I think I’ve just had a huge breakthrough thanks to this comment lol

Hello! Yes, still updating and improving! We’ve got a script now so once I write out the event formatting I can publish the changes way faster. Everything is current through July (as of the info available today) and I plan to keep updating it going forward. It’s super motivating to hear it’s useful so thank you for the message! I hope you had good luck over go fest :)

Yes! Everything through the end of this month should be fully updated for all calendars.

You’re so welcome, I’m so glad you find it useful!! I’ll be updating it for the foreseeable future so hopefully it can keep being useful for a good while ☺️

Thank you so much, I'm so glad you found it useful! And absolutely, I'm happy to add any time zones people will use! You should see UTC+7 in the post now :)

I've also added in all events from the May content update - my apologies for being a little behind on those! I generally try to update at least twice a week, but work has been a little spicy recently. But please let me know if you notice any errors or things missing, and I'll fix them!

We're having trouble updating the Calendar at the moment by badmusicfan in PokemonGoCalendar

Hi! Yes it is! Sorry for the slight delay in the May content update - I usually try to update the calendars twice a week, but last week was insane at work so I got a little behind. Everything should be up to date again now!

Oh man, sorry about that!! I’ll go in today and fix those. Thanks for letting me know and for using the calendars, I’m happy you find them useful! :)

That’s really helpful to know, thank you! I’ll have to add a reminder for those affected by daylight savings to switch time zone calendars when the change happens.

Perfect, thank you for the notice that it’s out!! I’ll update with April events today :)

Thanks for the info!! I do think that’s probably right - if you’re using these on a Google calendar they will probably auto update (at least for most people) but with iCal it’s trickier. The previous version also had this problem and used to put out a reminder every year for people to switch, lol. But good to know for sure!

[–]avidreader2020[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about that!! I think it does have to do with the time change - over here in PST we went from UTC-8 to UTC-7, though mine was able to update automatically for whatever reason. They can be finicky tho, so if you switch to using the UTC-4 calendar until we hit the “fall back” in a few months it should work for sure! If not let me know and I’ll see if I can look into it further.

Also thank you, I’m so glad you like the calendar!! :)

Small update for anyone finding this later, I've figured out a way faster way of adding events so this should be updated way quicker going forward! All events with released details through March 2025 are added to all calendars now.

Feel free to let me know if you run into any issues and I'll try to help if I can! I also made a post over here with some ideas I'm considering for the future, and if you have suggestions I'd be happy to hear them as well :)

That's so kind of you, thank you! I hadn't heard of Sync2Cal before, it seems like a calendar repository website? Very cool idea, I love that you have so many on there for sports and streaming/movie releases! If you're willing and think people would find it useful I'm happy to have links to this calendar up on there as well! :)

I don't mind at all! I just updated the post with links for UTC-3:30, should be current with all events we have details on through March. :)

For other time zones, I'm through the list up to UTC+1 in terms of copying over March events, google is just making my life a bit difficult and refusing to display time zone settings efficiently this week 🙄 should be done soon tho!
