Just went to the FIFA world cup site and it has a countdown to the draw. It says 11 hours to go?

I thought it was more like 22 hours to go?

What one is correct?

According to fifaworldcup.com, the draw is at 20:15 Leipzig time. Thats 9-Dec-2005 11:15 USA PT.
I dunno about Austrailia.

According to fifaworldcup.com it also says that the draw is 11 hours away.

20:15 Leipzig time will make it 6am here in Australia which is about 22 hours away or so.

ESPN2's broadcast starts at 15:00 EST (20:00 GMT)
BBC's broadcast starts at 20:15 GMT
Official website says it starts at 19:30 GMT, so it appears to me there is a least 45 minutes of fluff.
That countdown on the website looks messed up. Right now, at 17:07 EST, it says 1 day, 2 hours and change to go.

In that case, i think the countdown counter is taking into account everyones computer time? So it will be 20:15 here in 11 hours time so thats why im getting that countdown.

LOL

Interesting that iv also read that fifaworldcup.com will have a live transmission from 3pm.
