When is the 7DRL over?
« on: March 09, 2010, 11:38:21 PM »
I was thinking about this today. If I started my game on the 6th, does that mean I can work on the day of the 13th, or can I only work on the day of the 12th? 6+7 is 13 of course, but if you count the 6th as the first day, you end up having the 7th day on the 12th. Thoughts? I assume it's okay to work as late as the 12th, because that would be exactly seven days of work. Maybe my head is just stuck in arrays.. :)

I believe you can start the challenge on the 6th or 7th and finish 168 hours later. Therefore you have a window of 8 days in which to spend 7 days doing it.   I.e start on the 6th finish on the 12th, because you count the 6th as the first day, I could be wrong though.  The key is the 168 hours from when you start.

I haven't started yet so I will finish on the last day. Making it a 4 day roguelike i think.

Yes, it's 24 hrs. x 7 from when you start as far as I understand it.

I've got mine working now all I have to do it tweak the numbers so that it is more exiting. Or maybe re-factor it, that is always fun.
