A lot of people use "the elven calendar" or "Asgaard's clock" to differentiate between CF time and real time. I'm going to try and come up with a better system that is more conducive*sp* to reality.

I'll base my system on the following premise:

1 tick(CF hour)=60 seconds(obviously not the case, but work with me here)

Using the above equation we can get the following, understand that in most cases I'll be rounding to the nearest "major" time category.

-A half-hour would equal a CF day, an hour=2 days and so on.

-3.5 hours would therefore equal a CF week.

-14 hours would equal a CF month.

A day would would roughly equal a month and a half.

A week would equal a CF year.

Looking over that I realize it's probably a lot harder than it needs to be. Oh well.

one hour or a tick = 30 second real life (without lag).. you might wanna do the count again n/t chaldaie 18:17:56 4/2/2000 (2)
- 30 seconds < 1 tick < 90 seconds: 1 tick varies from tick to tick. GodMoney 18:46:28 4/2/2000 (1)
  - Yes, I'm pretty sure the helpfile says that a tick varies from between 30 seconds to 90 seconds, I picked the point in the middle. (no text and stuff) Polemachus 18:47:55 4/2/2000 (0)
