I don't know about you but I like to know how much (Minecraft) days I spend in my worlds.
So here is it the wish I have:
The Calendar
It would divide the time in weeks, months and years. But not the same ones as ours!
Time division
A game day lasts 20 real minutes.
If you noticed, the moon cycle lasts 8 days. So the week is 8 days long - 2h40 real time.
I personally see the month as lasting 3 weeks for a total of 24 days - 8h real time.
A year lasting 12 months makes for 288 game days, or 4 real days (good luck getting to 2013)
Those arbitrary choices are made for efficiency, easy coding, and easy learning.
Names and specificities
Weedays: Fur day, Reckon day, Tree day, Forge day, Flint day, Sea day, Diamond day, Earth day (Those are examples based on similarities with their number equivalent)
Month:I am not sure I see the worlds in Minecraft should start in January, but more in March. What's your opinion?
Year: Starts on the first year, there is no year 0. The world is created on the first day/year, not on the 0th.
Craftin'
I don't know, paper, feather and clock?
Looks and Usage
One could hold the calendar, seeing the time written on the paper (Fur day, September 4 0003). On the wall, it would be the same thing.
"Using" the calendar would present personal accomplishments per date, and could be used for short note taking about what happened that particular date, diary style.
I like the simplicity of only making one such item with hopefully no need to add textures - Like, it could use the empty map texture with text over it, similarly to the clock, and use the book GUI for diary style.
I do not wish to make the mod myself, but if there is a huge YES for it but no one to code, I'll try.
I haven't got news from him I guess if somebody wants to make it they will have to start from scratch.
I would really like to see it minecraftian in the sense that it follows the moon cycles, as there is an upcoming official season system so it would be great if this could lead the way in terms of how to separate time.

What's your thoughts on the system I show?
