Title: From ATS: How long is one Kings Age?
Post by: Maso on June 15, 2012, 07:53:29 PM
I think... 71 IG years or 7.7 RL years. From memory...

Quote from: BarsookHow is one King's Age?

I think you mean "how long is". In that case, try "help time":

Quote from: time helpfile[blah blah]  Years are measured on a 77-year cycle called a King's Age. Each year in
the cycle has its own name. [blah blah]

Quote from: snippet from time helpfileReal Time -> Zalanthan Time
          10 RL mins      = 1 ZT hour
          1 RL day        = 16 ZT days
          1 RL week       = ~0.5 ZT month
          1 RL month      = ~2 ZT months
          1 RL year       = ~8.5 ZT years

77/8.5 = 9.06

That means there's approximately nine RL years per IG King's Age.

Tell tell tell.

Also, was it really nine years ago, or has the IC time been tweaked somewhere in there? I know it was standardized at some point in time.

All I remember is that there was a half-elf stripper in the Gaj (with a funny description about how bored she was) and a bunch of npcs wearing masks.

It's more the revelation that I've been playing for almost 10 years.

It was like in 2004, based on a post somewhere.
