A SRS POLL! ...No really, seriously. :3 Time System Stuff

The idea of reintroducing a time system aka timeline or something has been brought up. There's a lot of pros and cons to the idea of reintroducing a timeline to Paixao. There was a system in place a kinda long time ago now aaaaannnd it was nerfed for a reason. It didn't really work.

This is a basic poll to get thoughts started and see what everyone thinks about this. If anyone has a brilliant idea for a a specific system however, please comment?

Here's the poll. :3

[Poll #1177780]



Just to stick this in here. As I edit this post a million times.

I had one idea tonight in my sleep dep state is I was thinking we could create a Paixao calender (with like... fun names for days and months like uh legend of mana of tales of the abyss) and on the calender mark what in game days happen. So like.. for example... the 2nd in the 3rd month in Paixao would take place from the 18th of May to the 30th of May, if it was two weeks to 1 day.

Then could reference the calendar to know what week we were in and note it in the "Time" header. We'd want to avoid using tags. It's hard getting things tagged all correctly as it is, and Zeth says the time tags were a big pain. Just a random idea I had if we were to go through with this. \o\;;;; Although, I've been happy with the Wibbly Wobbly-ness myself. lol XD;;

(I do like the calender idea XD)

1 week RL = 1 week Paixao. It doesn't use days, but makes things a bit more loose and still not incredibly tightened up. So things can get shuffled around within the week and... *scratches head* And I'm still not making any sense whatsoever XDDD

Also, I like the calendar idea! Because then we could have names for thing and stuff.

B-but I like my pime taradoxes. ;o; Looks like that camp's outvoted, though... Shoot, I hope I can keep track of it all.

Sparky likes the pime taradoxes, too. You're not aloooone ;_;

But, if majority wants timelines, can't fight it. I do worry about what this will do to people when they need to take hiatuses, though.
