What Time is it? The Game Clock/Day Reset

[Smakx]

There is sometimes some confusion as to what time it is in the Konami Duel Arena. The time of day (according to the server) is important for two main reasons:

1. At 00:00 UTC everyday, a new day starts in the Duel Arena, resetting the bonus multiplier for accumulated pvp arena matches, opening up your free daily partner, resetting your once a day 1k dp bonus, and allowing you to use the "greet all friends" button in your profile to score on free dp. Note that if you start a game that finishes on the next (server) day, you get a 50dp bonus, not the bonus you had accumulated when you started the game.
   
2. On Wednesdays from 8:00 to 10:00 (UTC) server maintenance is run.  It is important to be aware that the game WILL let you start a round just prior to maintenance starting, resulting in the game ending during maintenance and erroring out.
   

On the main page of the Konami Yugioh Duel Arena, in the right hand column just below the "Receive Duel with Friend invites" button, you will find the server clock that indicates what day and time it is in "Server Time". Make sure you keep an eye on this for all the reasons stated above.
