Thrill The World 2009

NEW THRILL TIMES FOR 2010!!!
This year’s Thrill The World will be taking place on:

This year, in an effort to accomodate for maximum participation from all ages, Thrill The World has changed the Thrill Times for 2010.

Our plan this year, is to have two (2) Thrill Times with a 12 hour difference in between.

The first Thrill Time will be at 11:00 AM GMT Saturday, October 30, 2010.

The second Thrill Time will be at 23:00 PM GMT Saturday, October 30, 2010.

It would be kind of like half of the world would dance first, the “eastern” world, and then the “western” world would dance 12 hours later.

The point: No part of the world gets stuck with dancing at 2am or 6am.

This also means the following:

i) Events could participate at EITHER of the two times indicated for their region

ii) Events could participate at BOTH of the two times indicated for their region

iii) One world record will be granted to the ‘half’ of the world that has the most participants. If you danced at both times you’d for sure be part of the record, but if the record didn’t matter, then just dance at which ever of the two times is most convenient.

iv) Thrill The World is still a ‘worldwide simultaneous’ dance, it’s just simultaneous twice.

v) This also means that all parts of the world would have Thrill Times between the hours of 11am and Midnight.

vi) Most of the Thrill Times would be ON Saturday, and only some parts of the world would have a second Thrill Time on Sunday, but that would be the SECOND thrill time.

Here are 2 maps, 1 for each Thrill Time.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Regions of the UK that observe British Savings Time (BST) will dance at 1:30 am b/c GMT is not London-time during BST. This means that people is BST will be setting their clocks BACK 1 hour AFTER the Thrill Dance, meaning when it says 2am in England they will have to set their clock to 1am! Other parts of the world also have Daylight Savings adjustments so see our WORLD THRILL TIMES Full Chart which will be posted soon.
