Hi Claudia,

Could you please redo the white belt test (the test to become to yellow belt). We double checked the server, it didn’t record anything you tried the test. (It could be a problem from our side

Also, could you please tell us what kind of OS system are you using for your PC? Is it windows or Mac. (This could help us to identify the problem)

Sorry for inconvenience

Benny

For "Time GMT + 8” , it means ‘Time Zone’.

Hi claudia,

1. You don’t have to choose it.
2. But if you choose your local GMT, you can see all the ‘time’ is you local time, it’s convenient to know when the question asked on your local time.

ex. I am in china, so I choose GMT 8, so I see you post this question on 2009-06-22, Benny posted first this reply on 2009-06-22 / 10:32AM . but for you , suppose you are in Italy, then you choose GMT1, then you can see you post this question on 2009-06-21, and Benny posted his first reply on 2009-06-22 / 03:32AM. you can try it.

Have fun.

Joey
