    Be handy if Farmerama-time (CET or whatever) showed at top of calendar page, or even in corner of main screen. Annoying to havta check it - I'm UK so have trouble enough knowing what time it is here when we switch between GMT and BST, let alone adding/subtracting or whatever. Makes my brain ache...

    It will be very useful it the time was added in the calendar. I personally have no real problem as Greek time has an hour difference from Germany's. But other players have a bigger difference

    Hello lovely ones :)

    We have pushed for this feature before the Forum was launched even, but sadly this is an extra feature that is hard to get, and it is not a priority at the moment for the Forum Management, but we have requested it repeatedly.

    The "temp" solution we came up with is this announcement. It is a sticky at the top of the event announcements section - I hope it helps a little, despite the inconvenience.
    ​
    Best regards,

    Perhaps CET could be added to the newslayer or to the unused space on the ?! tab on the top of the game screen.

    In the meantime, I recently discovered I could add a second clock in Windows. Click on change date and time settings, then click the additional clocks tab. I picked GMT + 01:00 where it lists Berlin. (I hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting this.)

    Otherwise, you might want to bookmark the CET time.

    In the US, we changed to Daylight Saving Time last weekend. I believe there is something similar in Europe. It would be helpful to know when that is scheduled to happen.

    I too have a separate CET clock in Windows and I presume it will change when daylight saving (or whatever they call it over there) comes in. I also have a clock for Australia so I don't skype my son at an inappropriate hour!

    farmerumf, I have both the German and Australia (appropriate for Melbourne) clocks on my computer but my Australia one is for the Australian Open Tennis Championships! :)

    Here the difference is 7-8 hours from CET time.
    I also think that will be nice.

    Moved the weekends! Moved the weekends!!! My word you Americans are so sensible! Over here (UK) nobody would dream of just moving the time change, even for such a totally good reason. I'm one of the oblivious - somebody'll mention the time change is coming up and I make a mental note to check the time on the TV when I get up that morning. I'll never get my head around it. I just go with the flow and wait to see if its lighter or darker than usual... :p I'm quite an intelligent person in general - this is just something my brain refuses to deal with! That and the farmerama greenhouse...

    Thanks teddy for responding. Knowing why things are not implemented helps to keep down complaints. We can still hope.. eventually.

    by-the-way, what I would like is to see CET up at the top of the farm screen, so we can always see it there.
