A question of time

Post by Bugbear »

Looking at my ship clock, the time is:

3084414:20:21:40

I feel confident to assume that 20:21:40 are the hours, minutes and seconds.

Assuming 3084 is the year and 414 is the day of the year, how many days in a year?

El Viejo, I've read your fiction, love your work. You refer to tendays - I suppose that's meant to be the equivalent of a week?

My ship clock… in immersion mode, I read it as 2085.860… that’s 1,000 days to a ship year.
Ten tendays in a tenth, ten tenths in a ship year… but that’s only in my fevered imagination.

Some previous discussion mixed-in with this thread over a couple of pages.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!
