[quote=@Shorticus] You know... It could be a pointless little "mini-game," but you could say that whoever "wins" the first era (makes the biggest gains in the actual first era) - whether that be diplomatically or culturally or militarily - gets to decide what becomes the most commonly used dating system at that point, much like how A.D. and B.C. are the most common ones used now and they revolve around the birth of Jesus. Until then, I'd just say "one hundred years from the dawn of civilization" or something. I'm feeling silly for suggesting that, but little things like that could be much cooler "rewards" for "winning" than anything else. TAKE A BREAK. [/quote] I do like this idea, but that pesky Sovereign has once again countered idealism with the voice of reason! If I start allotting imaginary trophies to people, it'll increase the chances of but-hurt syndrome occurring - for which there is no known cure. So what I'll do, is provide a universal calendar for anyone to use - but allow for players to invent their own, if they wanna be special and hip. I doubt the calendar will play a significant role in posts, but from time to time we might need it to keep everyone in roughly the same step. I'll use a random generator (man I'm lazy!) and put it up for all to see.
