OK, I've looked at CT AM7 and the Hiver calendar is totally screwed. The book says Glea rotates about its own axis once in "about 22 hours", a HF year is 143 cycles = 179 standard days. I'm going to have to work this out on a spreadsheet to get this to work. Gruffty Hivers: If you tolerate us, then your children will be next... 13:09, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

OK: 1 Hiver day = 22 standard hours (according to CT AM7). On that basis:

  • 264 standard hours (or 11 standard days) equals 12 Hiver days (of 22 standard hours each) exactly.

That's my starting point for sorting Teh Hivorz Kalenda Mesz out. Gruffty Hivers: If you tolerate us, then your children will be next... 13:29, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
