Indeed, real time. We can all check our own time on the computer clock and be sure it's okay, and have it clear and not make any mistake with missing the DL. It's also easier to look up the computer clock (I have
never ever looked at the Downs' clock). The only thing is how the posts are marked, but that has no value. Because a) there is no need for us to care about the time at our posts, the only value we need is what time it currently is, and not what time was when X or Y posted, and we can look up the time that is on our computers; b) it's up to Nogrod, and not us, to make the mathematical operations necessary to determine which votes are past the DL or not. In the case of using Downs time, everyone of us will have to get adapted to the weird DL time; but in this case
Nog simply draws a line and as a Mod, he has the veto option to say "your vote shall not pass" anyway. As long as I, you, he, she, it sees to posting in time according to my, your, his, her, its own computer time, then all of us will post in time, of course. Where's the problem?
So, shortly and simply
++real time
