Some Questions and answers on life on Atys and roleplaying

[aylwyne]

I'm thinking of adding an Atys calendar to our site with a simple way for us to sync up the time each day with the game. For normal server stalls and such that cause the time to be off by only an atysian hour or two, we would just need to check if it was synced each night when we logged in by waiting for it to change from one hour to the next and making sure the site matched.

For longer downtime (patches, crashes, etc.) where the server is down for several Atysian days, it would require waiting for a seasonal change to ensure that the day of the year on the website calendar matched the in-game calendar. But even that shouldn't be too bad.

I'd just have it so certain "trusted" people could sync the web clock. As long as we have a handful of people that are checking it every so often, we should be able to make something that reasonably predicts when seasons will change, which tends to be what most are looking for.
