:The main reason we use the 24-hour clock (used commonly outside the US, not just in military) is to make it easy and concise to differentiate between 10:00 and 10:00. The new day starts when it's midnight at our servers, which (depending on your Time Zone) could be up to 12 hours off from your local clock.

Question

Okay, I don't know under what section I would ask this under so, i'll just ask it here. Question: Why does the clock use military time and why does it start a new day at 8:00 PM (7 PM during daylight savings)? CrabAttack1999 22:45, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

The main reason we use the 24-hour clock (used commonly outside the US, not just in military) is to make it easy and concise to differentiate between 10:00 and 10:00. The new day starts when it's midnight at our servers, which (depending on your Time Zone) could be up to 12 hours off from your local clock. Thanks! Flashfight 23:04, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
