Calendars & Time Lines  

Revised September 18, 2006

General Information

I have updated the game dates on each of the events pages up through 3 Liatha 153 P.A.. From this point on GMs should submit the game date for their adventures so that we can keep this current. This takes us up through Session #46. In addition, remember that not all of the games were a full month apart. You will need to take this into account when dealing with between game activities like creating magic items and income allowances.

Rules

Here are a few additional notes on the rules used to create the calendar.

  1. There is a year zero.
  2. A year is defined as per the Sor-Tai Conference on a Common Chronology. The Central Planet of Terra 5 is used as the basis for the common calendar. It gives 15 Months per year, 28 days per month, and 7 days per week. This is astronomically about the same for the Central Planet of every system.
  3. The events listed are subject to change positions as we iron out the disparate timelines.

Time Scales

Original Time Scale
1 Year = 15 Months = 420 Days
1 Month = 28 Days
1 Day = 10.0 Hours = 27.5 Common Standard Hours (CSH) = 24.0 Game Standard Hours (GSH)
1 Hour = 10.0 Phases = 165.0 Common Standard Minutes (CSM) = 60.0 Game Standard Minutes (GSM)
1 Phase = 10.0 Minutes = 16.5 CSM = 6.0 GSM
1 Minute = 100.0 Seconds = 1.65 CSM = 60.0 Game Standard Seconds (GSS)
1 CSH = 60 Common Standard Minutes (CSM)
1 CSM = 60 Common Standard Seconds (CSS)
* If you think this is confusing, you should have attended the conference that created it. It has been said that at the Sor-Tai Conference on a Common Chronology, the representative of the Kobolds fell into a coma while trying to comprehend the formula.
Beta Time Scale
1 Year = 15 Months = 420 Days
1 Month = 28 Days
1 Day = 24.0 Beta Hours (BSH)
1 Hour = 60 Beta Standard Minutes (BSM)
1 Minute = 60.0 Beta Standard Seconds (BSS)
