PeerPlays snapshot will be applied to BitShares block number 9,291,600 which was produced at 2016-09-02 16:37 (UTC)
For everybody (like me) who looking for info about PeetPlays here at Steem ;-)
The SNAPSHOT of the BTS blockchain happens on a random block between midnight UTC on Sepember 1st and midnight UTC on September 16th. (The exact block can only be known based on a simple calculation that gets performed after the last block before midnight is signed on the 15th.)
The SHAREDROP happens when the Peerplays blockchain is launched, towards the end of this year. A sharedrop is when the snapshotted addresses/accounts are integrated into the Genesis block of the new Peerplays blockchain. The people who controlled the BTS held in those addresses/accounts can then use the same private keys from their BitShares accounts to unlock their new Peerplays tokens on the Peerplays blockchain.
Hope this helps to clarify your question.
UPDATE 9/17
According to the calculation given in the original announcement, the snapshot will be applied to BitShares block number 9,291,600
Which was produced at 2016-09-02 16:37 (UTC)
Which means that any BTS that you had in your wallet on this date and time will be counted towards the sharedrop.
Thanks for clarifying. Many people thought the sharedrop would happen soon in Bitshares wallet.
BTW, I have translated it into Chinese version.

My wallet was empty at the time (
At least that means there was more for me? If that comforts you at all.
oops, I was a week late...
I think it's a bad decision they took not to give shares to people holding bts on exchanges as this would have made a lot more advertising for peerplays.
I see this more like bad advertising for Peerplay. To take a snapshot on 2nd day is like they did't want to give away to many tokens.
I believe the number of peerplay token to be distributed is fixed. Probably the share will be reduced if most people didn't get their BTS in openledger early enough. So perhaps more peerplay token for early birds I guess. I might be wrong though
Correct.
