/timezone

Set or update your preferred timezone. The bot uses this preference to interpret match times you enter and to display match times to you in your local time.


Usage

/timezone

No parameters required.


What happens

  1. You receive an ephemeral acknowledgement: "Check your DMs to set your timezone."
  2. The bot sends you a DM with a two-step timezone selection flow.
  3. You select your geographic region, then select your specific timezone.
  4. Once confirmed, the bot saves your preference for all future interactions.

The command works both in a server channel and in a direct message with the bot.


The selection flow

Step 1 — Select your region

A dropdown appears with the available geographic regions:

  • North America
  • Europe
  • Latin America
  • Asia-Pacific

Select the region that matches where you are. This filters the timezone list to options relevant to your area.

Step 2 — Select your timezone

A second dropdown shows the available timezones for your selected region. Select the one that matches your local time.

Use the ← Back button to go back and change your region if needed.

Confirmation

Once you select a timezone, you will see a confirmation: "Your preferred timezone is now [timezone]. I will use this timezone when you provide match times."


When to use it

  • First time setup — If you haven't set your timezone yet, the bot will prompt you automatically when you first use the Set Your Match Time button. You can also run /timezone proactively before your first match.
  • After moving — If you travel or relocate to a different timezone, run /timezone to update your preference.
  • Correcting a mistake — If you previously set the wrong timezone and entered match times with it, update your timezone first, then re-enter your match time.

Notes

  • Your timezone preference is saved globally — it applies across all servers where the bot is present.
  • Previously entered match times are not retroactively adjusted when you change your timezone. Only future entries use the new preference.

See Updating Your Timezone for more detail on the selection flow.
