im curious too. and since its a special occasion, i will be on a library computer. (which i get a max of about 15 fps, which is why i dont use them) maybe someone will be kind enough to record this (instead of taking screenshots and stuff, but you know.....).
EDIT: crap, just remembered the library thats in town is closed on sundays. [ This Message was edited by: jimjim578 on 2013-03-08 13:28 ]

Dear DarkSpace players,
Every year on the closest Sunday to the 17th of March, we ask players to partake in a ceasefire for a very special event. The ceasefire will only effect the system R33 within the Metaverse, and those of you wanting to take part in this event are more than welcome to. Those wishing not to will have to avoid the system of R33 for the period the event is in session.
We hold this event every year to pay tribute to Paul 'R33' Gardner, a DarkSpace player who, sadly, departed this world On March 17th 2003. Paul was loved by many friends, fleet members, and DarkSpace player's; you name it, they all loved him. We all loved him. The day news of his death was heard was a day I shall not forget. Old and new players who knew him, and even those who didn't, were in the lobby displaying their condolences to those who knew him, and those who could call him a friend. A very dark day indeed.
On the the day the event is held, it is customary to cease all activity within the MV and return the system of R33 back to GTN (UGTO) control whilst the memorial is in progress (although this will not be forced), due to the fact that Paul was a long standing member of GTN. Although no-one is going to stop normal play should you not wish to take part, it's usually customary to, out of respect.
Myself, Banshee, Drafell, Crash003, DarkSword, and Viper raised a glass to our fallen friend at the DarkSpace UK meet many years ago, and I hope many of you will join me in saying a few words not just for Paul, but to other members of DarkSpace who have sadly come to pass.
This year the event has fallen on the 18th of the month, and will start at 8pm GMT.
I hope to see you there.
Thank you.
- Jack
I believe this answers the question? Assuming the formula has not changed it would be on the 17th of march at 8pm GMT. [ This Message was edited by: Sheraton on 2013-03-08 13:12 ]
