Now before I start with my ideas I searched and found one other thread about a PS Calender which some people liked the idea but no one set it up from what I believe. I will quote a few issues from the older thread:
There are ten PS months with 32 days each (I presume that it is each), so a single PS year would take less than a month of RL time.
This is a quote from Karyuu which is correct. There are 320 days in one PS year. Which there is 365 days in one RL year depending on leap years. So after doing a little math Im trying to figure out how to set this up. We need to link the two calender(why, I will get to that
), For each RL month there would need to be a reduction in 3.75 days or 90 hours.. now I dont know how complicated we want this to be.. here is one very simple way of doing it:
We disclude the first so many days of each month
4 RL months - 3 days
7 RL months - 4 days
1 RL month - 5 days
Now we could just take the beginning 1 - 5 days off the beggining of each RL month because to convert this would be quite a bit more difficult. unless PS days are longer.. by just under 3 hours a day. I also thought about cutting 12 hours off of days.. so each day does count for the date.. but instead of whats above it would be like this:
4 RL months - 12 hours for 6 days
7 RL months - 12 hours for 8 days
1 RL month - 12 hours for 10 days...
Now I believe this spreads it out too much and would effect my second idea.
Ok, now if we can get the two calenders linked together, then we can plan yearly Holidays for PS... these would all be IC RP of course. A day that Talad did this... in which no one fights duels or guild wars stop for a day out of respect. I believe this is a very good way to enhance the realism of PS. What would be nice.. if we could get something together, in the MOTD while logging in to PS it could tell us the PS date. But yes, I need more ideas and how to work out everything.
Edit: we need to get rid of around 1080 hours in each year to match the calenders.. 45 days.
