How many days are in an IC month and how many months are in an IC year? I have looked in A LOT of places for this info IC and can't find it anywhere. Thanks in advance. Arelgama |

It's found under calendar, days, week: 12 months of four weeks, each week having seven days. So 28 days in a month. |

http://www.shatteredkingdoms.org/time This bit of our website also explains a bit, and offers a means to translate IC and OOC times. |

I've noticed though, that in general, if a character says "I won't be arround next month" that translates at "OOC: I won't log on tomarrow" So even though if you think about it, the math doesn't work out quite right, when relaying that kind of information, an IC month = an RL day. I know this caused me a bit of confusion until someone explained it to me. |

I actually say "next month" to refer to tomorrow (at about the same time). If one RL minute translates to one IC hour, it's actually two months until I log on, since there are 60 days in an RL day. sleeper |

You're never going to get it exactly. And if you do, no one is going to care enough to check it. I will say "next month" if I don't intend to log in until the next day also. I will refer to seeing someone yesterday OOCly as "last month" icly. Beyond the helpfiles, there is a book in the gnome city about time, seasons, months, days, etc. |

I do the same thing. It's not that precise but most people know what you're talking about. |

Seven days, four weeks, twelve months. The common vernacular is next month for tomorrow or last month for yesterday. It used to vary, but I know its synchronized to RL time. It is exactly 15 IC months per RL week (10080 minutes). 60 IC days (2 months, 4 days) per RL day (1440 minutes). 2.5 IC days per RL hour. Bullet points post ftw! |
