Its easy once you get it.
Will be automatically.
Now its 21:48
21:48 - 12 = 9:48pm (for me in The Netherlands).

Basic math :).

But SC is going to give us the option to have am/pm or 24 so dont be worried smarm :)

Ah good... I'm one of those dumb Americans that Stormcrow was talking about.  I'd hate to have to do even simple math... if I don't have too!

I guess one option would be to allow style of clock (12 or 24) to be a user-profile-settable option, so people can make (and save) their own preference; and this might be the route we go down.
 
Europeans have a hard time reading... Cut Diablo some slack... The post wasn't a cartoon...

What about Americans having a hard time to read the 24hour clock? :)

Hey, hey - no criticism implied! - I'm married to a Yank and I've lived out across the pond for a good number of years (though back in Her Brittanic Maj's Sceptred Isle nowadays).

Living over thataways, though, I did discover that 24hr clock isn't as universally ubiquitous over there as it is over here, which weirdly seemed to depend largely on which State you lived in (I never found out why).

But, on another note: we now have pages of responses to the dev list, and pretty much the key talking point seems to be the 12 vs 24hr clock display.

If that's the big issue here, this could be an easier development list than we previously thought Wink
