Just as a thought, why do Illarion days have to be half as long or shorter than real life days..

why not 1 illarion day is two real life days. Makes the ageing of you char go at a nice rate

(about the candles) I know that whale's blubber used to be used as for burning candles. What about a new fishing skill? Whaling?

This system is (sorry for this word) bullshit! I have nothing against 365 days in illa, but that 1 Illarion-day schould be 3 hrs...that's dump. i don't know how you think that could work! And it is pretty confusing then, because, how do you know what day it is? And that means that you're going 2-3 times to bed, if you play 6-9 hrs. This time-system is too fast!
Fast is ok...but not that fast!

Greetings!
Good to hear that so many things are setup. I like the part about having 16 gods and 16 months in illarion

. About having a clock that tells the time in a corner of the game screen....I dont think it would be too realistic for babies etc to know exactly what time it is at any given moment. Perhaps we could have something in the corner that tells "approximately" what the time of day is in illarion. Something like "Noon", or "Night" would be good enough I think - they didnt have clocks in the medieval ages anyways. I dont know about having 3 hours equaling one illarion day...it could be too fast..., But I definitely agree about having illarion days shorter than "real life" days.

That is all! Thank you for reading.

I too think that three hours are too fast. This would make one real life day more then one illarion week. Three days would be more then one month. The times would change at a confusing rate.

Told ya, but they won't hear! They think its good but I'm also the opinion that its too fast, I guess everyone thinks that it is too fast and confusing. We should make a poll, with the question who think its okay and who thinks its too fast and we need/ wnat another system.
But I think its great to have 16 months, but I wondered if Moshran has a month too and if so ain't that a little bit hm scarry for the people in Illarion if the "evil" has a month of its own? I know I could look on the page and count the gods to see it but in truth I'm too lazy in the moment and I have also hardly time to do this.

So have fun...

EDIT: Okay nevermind, Moshran gets a month of its own...in my opinion is this pretty scarry...
