    Here is the rules of the competition.

    The first person to rescan and find the reshuffle has appeared must do the following to become the winner of the DS reshuffle race:

    They must post HERE and only HERE and provide a screenshot or get someone from the same transmitter to confirm for them.

    If he/she succeeds he/she will get to gloat to 2 DS members of their choice. This must be done in this thread to avoid anger/confusion/getting banned from DS

    If 2 or more members post at the same minute, the member on top of the other DS member(s) confirming the reshuffle has taken place has won.

    No guests allowed.

    Competition begins at 00:00:01 BST on Tuesday the 18th of October 2005 AD.

    Good Luck

    Posted it in the other thread, but even if you're at work during the day, you may still have a chance as on the Radio2 website, it says the change will take place between 4 and 7

    I agree with that point, and suggest that the competition rules are changed to the first one to re-scan after 1500 hours wins the competition.

    I don't suppose it makes alot of difference to the rules, the game only really starts the second the new epg has began.

    4TV will now be on 300. I do not know if this will negatively effect those particular boxes. They may search for the channel be name rather than LCN.

    EDIT: If 4TV have allowed the LCN change to take place, then I presume your box should be ok with the change.

    Nothing so far at 5.10am but I have just seen the above post about the 5pm rescan. Seems a funny time of day to change the EPG

    Anyone with any intelligence would simply wait for the on screen message equesting them to re-tune, as opposed to wasting acres of internet bandwidth whineing about it not happening ...

    Just to say according to my sources the data will not have propogated until around 4pm this afternoon and sometime after that the BBC (and other boradcasters) will provide information on their DTT datastreams and web sites.

    I am told that it will be on digital cefax; the MHEG holder for BBC3/4 CBBC and CBeebies along with the BBC's website.

    The data is expected to be deployed early afternoon but it will take over an hour to propogate across the DTT network - hence the view that it will be accessible between 4 and 5pm.

    Of course the reality is it will be available eariler to those of you rescanning your boxes every few minutes and no doubt the first of you to spot the new numbering will be posting here seconds later. :)

    OOOOOOOOOOHHHHH isn't it exciting.

    I have heard from some one that it isn't happening till at least 10 p.m. tonight, because those that have an interest in this things do not want to be in the middle of something when it happens and revealing this information has nothing to do with the fact I wish to stop every one else from entering the 'competition'

    BTW can I use photoshop to fake a screen grab?

    H77 off to start an Unofficial EPG reshuffle thread.....
