So, I was thinking it would be a good idea to have a universal clock for The Bell Tree (idea by Aloan_Apples). I feel likeit would be eaiser for players to cordinate times with each other and make some people more comfortbale as they don't have to share their acual time zone. It would also elminate people tranlsting their times to other peoples time, saving time and elimiantion some possible errors. The Universal clock would run on a 24 Hour cycle with no pm or am, so it would go like this (0:00, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00... 11:00, 12:00, 13:00, and so on till 23:59. The Universal clock would be synced on the hour for every time,( ex. 1:00 Est could mean the universal clock would be 3:00, or 1:00 PST could mean the universal clock in 3:00 if those two clocks happen to run on the same time). The time the clock is synced with would be determined by a vote or the staff. Lastly, the clock could be call BTT (Bell Tree Time, but it already a acual timzone) or TBTT (The Bell Tree Time). Let me know what you think and if you support this. New Ideas are welcome of courese too!

This is not a demand but just an idea. Please treat it as such.
 
I think this would be a good idea. I plan on doing lots of trading in the near future, so this would help a lot. :)
 
Omg YES PLEASE. I can’t tell you the amount of times in the past I’ve had to calculate time zones when doing a trade with someone or when trying to find what time zone someone is in on this site. I honestly don’t know why this isn’t a thing already (it needs to be :p).
 
I feel like that’ll make it more confusing for me knowing when someone’s posted or simple stuff like that also I love the fact that the sky changes and having a universal clock for tbt would mess that up and we wouldn’t be in sync so I decline
 
with new horizons coming out they should wait and implant one that visually looks like whatever its clock will be

unless we've already seen it and I just forgot
 
I just Google it, it takes like 5 seconds... I personally wouldn't use it.
 
Yes please. Especially for restock times and event times. Don't know how many time the timezones posted confused me. Although they started posting in BST (which I'm one or two hours ahead of) it can be confusing and especially all those US ones.

The time could still be syced with normal time, the universal clock would just be a way to corrdinate times.

I don’t understand why? It’s not a big deal especially when they state what time zone for restocks ect I’m BST and I don’t have an issue translating the time. I just think it’s fine the way it is.
 
i don't think threads on the first page really need a bump, people will still see it

anyways i'm not totally against the idea but i don't really see the point in it, you can easily google timezone conversions - for example if an event is scheduled at 1PM EST you can literally google "1PM EST in BST" and it'll give you the time. alternatively these sites are useful for timezone converting:
