Star and end times are based on UTC. So, SE events begin at midnight UTC on a given day. The time you see it begin will differ depending on your relation to UTC. I'm -7hrs UTC, so I see SE's begin at 5pm my time.

Similarly, if the entry ends on Friday, that's probably 11:59.59pm on Friday UTC, which would make it 5pm Friday for me. Assuming I'm correct in that. I don't wait until the last minute to enter, so it's partly a guess, but also based on how the SE's work in general.

That said, the timer in your game should countdown somewhat accurately. It will say 1 day left, until there is less than 1 day remaining, then it will show remaining hours (then minutes and seconds, if you wait that long).

The footnotes included on every SE page also touch on the timing: https://rr3.wikia.com/wiki/Carbon_Copy#Footnotes
