On a 24 hour "War Clock" The War Room Clock would always be what is referred to... It would be called simply CC TIME or "By the War Clock" I do not know of anyone who would bother with trying to tackle time zones after having such an easy tool to use instead... it (the war room clock) would end the confusion.

Hey Joe meet me in Game chat... I will be there at ...... CC time.
Done deal.

Some Crazy People... Or Frogs for that matter... would probably get a small cheap clock... or maybe an old wrist watch... and post it next to their monitor... Have their own War Clock that is always visible even when they are in other realms of the internet... Someone might even figure out how to make their computer do it with CC Time like a second timezone that is always displayed on the bottom of the screen...

I might put an additional watch on my other forearm... would have to be a Big Heavy Dive Watch though... :-) CrazyFrog

Good news keepers of the flame! From the latest CC Dispatch:

Q. As someone who, like myself (perchorin), lives in a less CC populated time zone, surely you can feel the need for a CC time clock! When can we expect this to happen?

El_Jefe wrote:CC Time Clock! I need it as well. I thought I was the only one. Let's make this happen.


So that's good right? Unfortunately it also appears that my question was the first he's ever heard about the CC clock...that's bad right?
:?
No, I'm being positive. Getting a "let's make this happen" from the boss can only be a good thing!

He makes the decisions. So, that can only be a good thing. :)

Wow this is a great and terribly simple idea. What can it take, 1h to implement?

Hopefully change. ;)

This is on the list of things being worked on, but it's probably gonna take a bit more time.

how about using the International format ;)

date goes from smallest to largest (day/month/year) & time goes from largest to smallest (hour/minute/second).

I have a nativist preference for the American way, but I can see putting it in international form. The thing is it's as big a deal when something says "May 02, 2013" when it says 5/2/13.

I know there's talk among the developers of moving it over to the right of the Home|Instructions|Scoreboard|etc. stuff. Given that space might be an issue over there, perhaps it should be put in a more international but shortened format. I would recommend: 2013/05/02 15:24:37. Even us dumb Americans could figure out that means May 2 and not Feb. 5 :)

Using a format like 02/05/2013 has the exact reverse consequence of confusion but the victims would be the Americans who make up over half of the site's users.

aren't Americans are normally confused?

if the site wants to expand then the International format would be the default for the majority of new users.

:D

All I'm saying is that putting the four-digit year first and then doing descending order won't confuse anyone, American or otherwise.

This is something that is being worked on on the test site, but there was some issue finding the right place for it and the developers are having to write their own version of it because all of the existing ones that they found had one problem or another, so it was easier just to write their own. But, as with everything, we have to make sure we don't break anything by making that go live on the site. #recurringthemeofrecentimprovements
