I thought this might be interesting for people to know.

Thanks for the find! I think the basic stuff (ie: bells, suns, etc.) are on our own wiki, too, but I don't think I've ever seen the rest of it. It's really fascinating.
Thank you!

Details like that make the game more interesting.
RE: Time, as it pertains to Eorzea - Lady Whiteraven - 10-03-2013
Agreed, and you're welcome! I found it and loved the detail and felt I had to share.

This is awesome =) Thank you so much!
I'm going to have to change my character's dialogue habits to fit this!

On A related note I dislike how fast the time runs in-game. 2.5 min or so for a full day I think it is...
So I had an idea... as a community we should decide what time zone to go by and pretend that thhe world is at that time too... even if the srtting itself shows the sun up.
So if its say, 5am gmt irl then its 5am eorzean as well.

It serves a purpose, since certain gathering classes are tied to weather effects and specific points in the day/night cycle.
As for the time zone idea? That won't end well - it's the sort of thing role-players will argue about endlessly and sweeping 'majority rules' decisions are a pretty awful combination where role-players are concerned.Â
WoW had a slower day and night cycle but if night fell whilst I was indulging in some role-play that was meant to take place in the day my partners and I would just go ahead and consider to still be that particular point in time.
