I've been meaning to PM Space about the server needing a clock reset.
Madopal, You're forgetting about Mountain Time. And remember that looking back, when we were finishing the puzzle, DST was in effect.

I think they numbered the posters according to the database, so as the records were logged on the server is the order. Which means our own posts/tweets/facebookings are all going to be slightly off as the various servers received their timestamps. I doubt we can worry too much about the minutes.

....I received a card from the Royal Mail this evening, stating that my signature is required for a parcel. More info to come, but it looks like those in the UK should start receiving their posters (if not received already)!!

A) Wait, if it's 12pm pacific, it's 1pm mountain, 2pm central, and 3pm eastern (not counting daylight, getting to that in a second). So 1:15pm CST is 11:15pm PST, not 12:15, right?
B) I thought daylight savings was during the winter, not the summer, no? Even if it was PDT instead of PST, the Pacific is still 2 hours behind Central, so I still see it as off one hour somehow (ignoring the time problem on the forums).

The most obvious option is I goofed with my calculations and posted the wrong time (or the posters posted the wrong rime and I goofed from that).

Hey, that's cool, Kevin, no worries. Just trying to line it all up. You've done a great job of gathering all this together.
