The Timeline is a record of notable events that occured in Dragonhollow and the rest of the universe.


Calendar


Time was broken into eras, also called seasons.

An era traditionally started after some event, whether cataclysmic or opportunistic, drove citizens to another land where they would start fresh with nothing but the clothes on their back. Because of this, each era ran an indeterminate length and some were much longer than others.

Strangely, the calendar in Dragonhollow was not tied to its lunar and solar cycles. A calendar day equaled exactly 72 solar days.

Dates were rendered as (Era)E:Date, for example:

The tenth day of the third era would be rendered as 3E:10.

Behind the Scenes


The following is out-of-universe information about the real world Dragonhollow.

Each era corresponded to a different map, and every full reset started a new era, with the exception of temporary maps and the rare occasions when the server went to a whitelist and was not open to the public.

Like real life epochs and eras, the amount of time they measured was not static but defined by the events that occurred within them.

The calendar was counted in real 24-hour days, not Minecraft days (so that the date of older events could still be calculated from forum, chat, and screenshot timestamps). The Eastern Time Zone (EST/EDT) was used because the server itself was hosted there.

The in-universe date was calculated by using the first day of the map, so that the very first day of the server on August 13, 2013 was 1E:1. The final day of that map occured on October 19, 2013, which was then rendered in-universe as 1E:68 as the map had existed for a total of sixty eight days. When calculating the time between dates, always remember to add +1 day so that you're counting the day the event occured on.
