Being in Tasmania fuck daylight saving !

Stupid idea. Why not put us on GMT+9.5.and the only state that's then different is WA.

Fun fact: about 50 people in WA have GMT+8.5. Just for funsies.

Being on +9.5 would be like being on permanent anti-daylight saving time (or at least, half-anti-DST). I'm not sure that would really work.
