Disagree wholeheartedly.  For alliance cooridination, just use Zulu (GMT) for a global standard.
 
Dev Team - I suggest a GMT display concurrent with player's local time.

Not currently, I'm afraid.

It is, however an item on the publically available Current Development List, as follows:

SERVER TIME AND CLOCKS
  • 12HR Clock Option on Player Profile
  • Local Time Offset option on Player Profile
  • Server Clock (top right hand corner) to Tick
Regards,

GM Stormcrow

Is there a way to set the game clock to my local time for my System Alerts, Etc.?  Being stuck on UK time messes with my feeble little excuse of a brain.Confused

haha SC and Diablito's comments are somewhat ironic given that I, an American, was the first to protest the proposed change to a 12 hour clock.

On other stuff: It all looks pretty good to be honest, thats probably why we're all left to just bicker over nit picks.

I don't actually know what math is. LEAVE THE 24 HR CLOCK!

But, on another note: we now have pages of responses to the dev list, and pretty much the key talking point seems to be the 12 vs 24hr clock display.

If that's the big issue here, this could be an easier development list than we previously thought Wink
