I just got the night owl badge even though it's only 10:22pm in Sydney. I may be delusional, but I don't think that's very late...

Where is your local time set to? On your profile it says it's 2:30am!

This is what your timezone is set to for whatever reason:


Either you're the kind of guy who changes the time while playing Animal Crossing to get the night time bugs because you're too sleepy and can't stay up late or you're entitled to the codename for posting from Vladivostok as well.

Well I feel a bit silly now

I've changed it now but if it was wrong, how did I get the kangaroo award?

I mean it happens, a lot of people have probably got Night Owl because of having the wrong timezone set. I think you're the only one set to something that wasn't your actual one or GMT though lol

As for the Kangaroo...I can't go giving away all the codename secrets now can I?

I genuinely have no idea why I set it to that....

I don't know what I was smoking when I set this account up, but I do know that I want some more of it

That Solomon Islands herb is potent!

I've got my timezone set correctly pretty sure and I got a Night Owl at like 6PM one time. I just assumed it was because MGF itself is basically in the UK and 6 hours ahead.

I have just received a warning on Reddit for telling a German neo-Nazi that I'm glad the US bombed Dresden. Literally 1984.

Codenames work in mysterious ways the full extent of which are unknown even to me...

Also lol can't have you bullying a poor Nazi based on his beliefs, now!

Thanks for leaving out The Brits. Although what they did to Coventry was unforgivable. They didn't go hard enough.

You got the kangaroo award I imagine because you posted from...well you know.
