Universal Clock

This is Stryfe's idea and all credit for it should go to him.

This is simple and effective, and yet so engenious. Please put on top of 'gaming on-line' forum clock with universal time. This way we all have one certain time for gaming (no problems with timezones and daylight savings). That would make on-line encounters so much easier to happen...

I think that You have gone too far with this. Clock inside game is not necessary. It's all about getting the time during the chat or posting on forum - in order to know when to launch your game on-line. When You have your game running you don't need clock anymore.

Clocks are counter-revolutionary. I think we should all get clocks installed in our brain so we no longer have to look at our watch, which all in all, could take hours off of our life. Those are hours I want back!

In reality a clock might be ok on the forums, if it's eastern standard time, if it's german which our humble super computer mod makers are, then it wouldn't do me much good.

this is a very small feature that can take a whole half day. just wait after the release of v3 and maybe i can be persuaded to do features like that

i don't really like beatclock, it never helped me without a converter but everyone who is interested in having an universal clock, there are tons of little applications showing you internet time. so you could ran a little beta test with internet time for me and if its good i may integrate it on the site later
