Been busy the last two days, really sorry T-T
Enjoying the collab so far though! Strangely exciting :)
@Scarifar I'm pretty certain Alefprians are the only ones.
@Fallenreaper I'll send you a piratepad in about 6 hours :)
@Scarifar This calendar will be purely for us - a game mechanic - and not an in-IC matter.
Not sure - all the anime/manga-based RPs I've joined for the last few years haven't lasted :/

And I've overburdened myself already with the number of RPs I'm in. Will keep an eye on this though
I don't entirely understand the issue with there having been undetectable inconsistencies in time flow, but if it's not something that's accepted to explain the chronological holes that doubtlessly exist I'm not too fussed.
Also, just remembered: the Eskandars do have a calendar - I haven't fleshed it out, but it appears to be lunar and begins with the birth of Eskandar. So Arcon is sorted in that regard.
@Double Capybara If it does deviate again, at the very least we'll have a concrete idea of how far in the past or future each storyline is. This isn't about restraining anyone from going as far ahead or from staying as far behind as they want, it's all about actually knowing where in time each storyline is taking place and ensuring that each plot is actually being consistent with itself regarding its timing. That's all this really is. Other than putting a small date in the header, nothing substantially changes.
It hit me earlier. The way to canonise the time inconsistencies from around the time of Slough's 'second death'.
I'm thinking that Vowzra's disturbed state at the time caused a slight disturbance in the Time stream, meaning that time did not operate properly for everyone from the moment of Slough's death.
When Vowzra died, this was exacerbated. The fact that a plane with vastly different time passage to the rest of the universe was torn in (New Chronos) also added to the imbalance, and now there are some rather large time inconsistencies across the board. This wouldn't be anything anyone would notice immediately, but it provides an explanation for why close to 22 years (an estimate) have passed in Yara's plot since she arrived in Vetros while somewhere else one year or less may have passed.

I'm thinking this instability will be sorted by the end of the Yara storyline (coming soon!) and that can be the next 'global event' from where our new time system can come into effect - once Termite explains it. Thoughts?

Edit: This time inconsistency think only applies to everything happening from the moment of Slough's second death, so any inconsistencies before that will have to be sorted out in a more orthodox manner.
@Muttonhawk That's fair enough. I agree that we need a dating system for the sake of consistency. It can easily be incorporated into the header. Just a matter of someone making a system/explaining a system we can use.
