Star Army previously voted to try aligning IC time to have 1 in-character month for every 2 OOC months. With 9 IC months this meant that every 3 OOC years we'd have 2 IC years. The "slower" pace was intended to allow more to happen each year and to reduce the amount of plots "falling behind" in previous years.
While the calendar achieves its purposes decently, the major hangup is that it's been annoying not having the IC and OOC holidays synced.
Now that we've had time to try this time flow out, we get to choose whether we should keep using it, or revert to a 1 year to 1 year time flow.
There is an "abort" option coming up at the end of the year, which looks like this:
Jan 2022: 7M YE 43
Feb 2022: 8M YE 43
Mar 2022: 9M YE 43
Apr 2022: 1M YE 44
May 2022: 2M YE 44
Jun 2022: 3M YE 44
Jul 2022: 4M YE 44
Aug 2022: 5M YE 44
Sep 2022: 6M YE 44
Oct 2022: 7M YE 44
Nov 2022: 8M YE 44
Dec 2022: 9M YE 44
This would get us back on the 1/1 year timeflow. Further years would consist of a mix where 3 IC months get 2-month periods and the rest are 1 IC month to 1 OOC month.
If we chose to continue the 2/1 month option we've used throughout 2021, we'll get:
Jan-Feb 2022: 7M YE 43
Mar-Apr 2022: 8M YE 43
May-Jun 2022: 9M YE 43
Jul-Aug 2022: 1M YE 44
Sep-Oct 2022: 2M YE 44
Nov-Dec 2022: 3M YE 44
Jan-Feb 2023: 4M YE 44
Mar-Apr 2023: 5M YE 44
May-Jun 2023: 6M YE 44
Jul-Aug 2023: 7M YE 44
Sep-Oct 2023: 8M YE 44
Nov-Dec 2023: 9M YE 44
Let know which option/pacing you think will work best for your RP. I will make a decision by the end of the month considering your feedback.
