Isharra, thank you for submitting the bug “”officially”.
As someone who works Grave shift, and has for many years, I can tell you what the fact of the matter is — and it has nothing to do with US vs. EU time notation.
The start of a new day is at zero hours (0000). This is also called “midnight”. Many people use this term incorrectly, i.e. “tonight at midnight, lets go to the pub” (which would technically be in the past).
Midnight == 0000 hours == 12:00am
Noon == 1200 hours == 12:00pm
Think of it like this: the am/pm notation “rolls over” when the hour is a multiple of twelve. I.e. 11:59pm becomes 12:00am (midnight), and 11:59am becomes 12:00pm (noon).
am/pm notation, simply put, sucks. 24-hour time is the way to go.
Hope this helps.
