Originally by: CCP Prism X Why is this topic still about daylight in EVE, that's just silly. I wanted a DST weirdos VS Normal people debate. You guys never wanna do what I wanna do.
Since April 2nd 2006 I have disowned Indiana as my home state. The only thing good about the place, the "no fiddling with your clock" factor, was nerfed for the supposed greater good.
Thus leaving only Arizona and Hawaii as the last bastions of, "Screw the rest of the world! They can spring forward and fall back all they like. We're doing it our way" common sense in the US.
Iceland is nice for that as well, I suppose. Not that it matters much. Dork with your clocks and the sun would come up at what? 10am instead of 11 in the winter? So I imagine the icelanders were a bit *shrug* "Why cut into beer time? Nobody calls us anyway"...

I don't get dst myself, although getting an extra hour of sleep in the fall is always nice. but spring.... I hate spring oh so much. although gwb tells us it saves energy or something. although I like to keep my light on and stay up to stupid hours of the night anyways.
now if dst made it so it was daytime from like 2pm->2am that would decrease my usage of lights by quite a bit.

If those are the hours you're awake at, that wouldn't work. You'd still have a light on in the evening/night.
You just need to adjust your sleeping pattern, or play purely by the light of your monitor.

I know the answer, but i feel the knowledge of it is worth more then these measily ISKies you offer. Just knowing, that you know that i know, yet remain unable to reach ito my concious and remove the info and confirm it, gives more satisfaction then 250 million in my wallet

Exactly the slight incantation of doubt in your wording that makes me believe that you indeed, deep in your mind, think that i do and it gnaws at your curiosity like a starving squirrel on a dried piece of bread

Ah but a promise is a promise is it not? So this 250million will stay where it is until someone claims it?
Ofcourse you could spend millions upon millions, but that 250 million you promised, would be always promised, until the promise is fulfilled.
Now, you could ofcourse claim it with an alt, or ask one of your friends to claim it with the knowledge you've volunteered to them, but that would sentence your life to an eternity of knowing that you, maker of promises, lied and cheated your way out of it.
I doubt you're that kind of person, although i can't be sure.
What'ever the case, i believe that the moneytary compensation you're offering is merely that, moneytary, and while money can change hands, be spent, re-earned and be spent again, the knowledge of the curiosity and the possibility to bring it forth at any given time, is the true reward here

Exactly, and if it felt i was judging your persona or doubting your honesty, i do apologise as is due.
Simply meant that as one who holds many things, some of information, passed and of things to come, i felt the need to let you know that i know.
If it were to come down to only me claiming the 250 million for this information, i will not rid you of it, simply, i will keep the information and the experience as my own and consider it a worthy reward. I hope you'll use that 250 million to a good cause though, as it would sadden me if it was used to bring grief and ill-will to people

I really dont mind doing that, its just the stumbling around after turning the monitor off that gets me.

Originally by: CCP Prism X It's because Icelandic people have to remember to adjust their GMT -> <Insert whacky country that likes to fiddle with their base-point for time measurement a couple of times a year> conversion constant. Vengeance is sweet.
More than that, most people can work out what their GMT offset is, and know when their own country has summer time etc, but trying to figure out what the new offset is specially for Eve, and again when some random state in some random country on the other side of the world changes their clocks would be far far more annoying. GMT is the right way to do it, everything should be GMT.

You should watcht hat crappy movie where they go to the sun to inject stuff into it to save it from dieing. Although the movie I thought was crap, thus I forgot the name. But they take a secound ship to save the first and inadvertently let the sycho that killed the first misssion onto thier ship and the dude is super nuts.
Anyways watch that movie. I do what the crazy guy does I have a book mark for the center of the sun in Dodixie and I like to go there in a ship cloak and bath in the warm toasty cosmic rays at thier source.
In space by the way day/night is relative the same way up/down is. If you have a hard time understanding the idea that anydirection is whatever you wish it to be or not to be in null grav, Read 'Enders Game" and educate your self in that respect. |

Actually I remember reading an article about how the astronauts have a stick schedule to include sleep. Cause if they didn't they would stay up to late and there normal cycle would get disrupted.
Sounds like a majority of EVE players actually :) Wonder how many players have no idea what time it is until the down time message starts popping up stating that they have played EVE entirely too long :)
