All the details are in the first post, guys. There is even a helpful link showing exactly what time and day it begins where you live so that people don't get confused. Remember that this is a worldwide website. The time and day often differs for different users.

At least I can't make the mistake since I'm in the UK.
Get ready guys thac 8 starts in an hour.
You got me! I'll probably enter, it's been too long since I made something.
Eh, you guys, I'm sorry to ask, but I can't seem to figure out what time it starts for me. 
I'm in Michigan, in the United States. Can anybody figure it out for me. 
I don't wanna miss it! 
It starts tommorrow at 7am for me! Can't wait!
Find your time zone on this webpage. That is when it starts for you.
jogopocomedia, I believe THAC8 will start for you at 7am, however I'm not well versed on American time zones. Confirm this with your parents if you need to.

I believe it's 7AM for you.
Thanks! I managed to figure out the time clocky thingy. So it officially starts at 7 AM tomorrow for me. I will probably be busy most of the morning, but the afternoon is free I think. I wish it started earlier so I could wake up early and start working, cuz that's what I do best.
Okay unfortunately I wont be participating because im going out to get drunk instead.
Ok so Heres my schedule
7:00am, I wake up and turn on my NetBook.
7:08am, I get on BiM and check the THAC Topic.
7:10am, I see what all the Theme and Mod elements are.
7:13am, I'll get dressed in Dark Clothing.
7:15am, Get my NetBook, bring down to the basement and put it on the Pool Table.
7:20am, Start Animating.
8:00am, Stop animating, go upstairs and eat.
8:12am, Find out when i'm leaving.

Heres my schedule:
5:00 A.M.: Wake up, turn on my computer (it takes that long to start up)
5:30 A.M.: Eat breakfast while waiting for computer to start up.
6:30 A.M.: Go onto BiM chat.
7:00 A.M.: Figure out what the theme is, feel a vague sense of doom.
7:30 A.M.: Can't figure out what to do.
12:05 P.M.: Still can't figure out what to do.
4:00 P.M. - 8:00 P.M.: Cry my head off.
10:00 P.M.: Give up, go to bed, and tell myself i'll do better next year.

6:30-Wake up
7:00-Eat
7:30-Turn on our stupid ACER that never responds

Im probably gonna wake up at 6:30 and go on chat and watch some THACumentaries to inspire me. 
P.S I wish i could have entered THAC 7, cuz i have a good idea. A guy intercepts an email that tells the THAC theme and mods and makes a film beforehand. And justs before he enters it in, he realizes the theme and mods have changed, unexpectidly.

11:00 Prepare for animation.
