What time does electronic release occur?
-
@piisfun yeah I had to learn the UST conversion since on of the databases I work with is based on that instead of local time so it got ingrained pretty fast haha!
And thanks so much for giving the rough release times for the different things. I have never honestly read prepubs yet since I like to just go straight through books without waiting for parts. It does make the wait in between volumes a lot harder though, so maybe next series I pick up I'll try that way once I'm caught up.

@Motionless47 said in What time does electronic release occur?:
@piisfun oh i see, i just googled what CST would be as UTC, didn't take into account that it'd be DST currently.
Annoying I know. In my case, for Bookworm, I started reading the Prepub at 4 PM (I live on CST timezone), then the 'muricans had to have their DST change a couple of weeks ago, so I ended reading at 5 PM...
so, yes, we need to really on the DST when reading our fixes of LN Drug...

Just to note, if you look at the 'Coming Soon' column on the right side of the J-Novel home page, it lists the (planned) release time in hours; for example, at the moment I'm writing this, release of Part 4 of Tearmoon Vol. 2 is given as 'Coming up in 14 hours'.

For most streaming releases, they go up at 1200 and 1600 Pacific time. Since we are currently in daylight savings, then it's PDT. When we go back to standard time this fall, it'll be the same times, but in PST instead.
Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

@Travis-Butler I saw that for some but this one didn't show a time till late last night then gave a time til release. In my library it had just said available April 6th. But I do appreciate the tip
-
@myskaros why is it so late in the day 10 pm PDT) for this release today? Seems like a weird time to have it
-
@trashboat Wait library? Are we talking about premium ebook or prepubs? Because everyone is talking about something different, and you never clarified that.
-
@LegitPancake premium ebook. Dendrogram vol 11 showed a release of April 6th and just said available for download April 6th in my library but the time did update late last night to indicate a 10pm Pacific availability.
-
So technically the official release date of Infinite Dendogram Volume 11 is April 7, 2020.
J-Novel Club is based out of a CST/CDT state so the premium ebook releases at midnight Central Time (CT), and based on everyone's individual time zones it may list April 6, 2020 in the premium library.
For me (EST/EDT) it shows the available date at April 7, 2020:
Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

@Rahul-Balaggan ok this makes a lot of sense. I am shortly behind Central Time but when I saw available on the 6th I did not realize I was already accounting for my time zone, so I was thinking the release was last night rather than tonight.
Again I really appreciate all the help everyone gave in this, it clarified a lot on my question and probably preempted a similar future question I might have gotten on pre-pubs 😁
-
@Rahul-Balaggan are you able to access it? The download button is available now but I got this error:
{"error":{"name":"Error","status":500,"message":"ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/deploy/ebooks/infinite-dendrogram-volume-11.epub'","errno":-2,"code":"ENOENT","syscall":"open","path":"/home/deploy/ebooks/infinite-dendrogram-volume-11.epub"}}
I saw you mention in another thread you get every release so I figured you'd be my best person to ask to check this, not trying to be a pain in the ass though 😁
-
Oops, this is my fault, I was taking care of the finishing touches on the premium version today... and completely forgot the final step of actually uploading it >_< give me like 5 minutes...
-
@myskaros ahh awesome I'm glad I asked, teamwork haha! Thanks so much really appreciate the fast response!
-
All right, should be available now. Sorry again!
-
@myskaros definitely no need for apologies, I really appreciate the fast upload so I could start reading today instead of tmrw! Already made a serious dent in the book, I suck at pacing these things 😂
