I'm not so good at html.. The tables need to be spaced out. The calendar isn't really a great reference at this point; someone with better style might want to take a look. --Snickles 18:40, 16 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

I'm just putting this information here for reference, unless someone wants to incorporate it somehow. --Snickles 14:36, 17 May 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • KY1 -- 8/30/04 to 12/3/04
  • KY2 -- 12/4/04 to 3/9/05
  • KY3 -- 3/10/05 to 6/6/05
  • KY4 -- 6/7/05

KY1, 2, etc.. are arbitrary years cribbed from Subjunctive KOL's SISC system. ;)

SSPD

Jick's stated in the forums that Saint Sneaky Pete's Day was not supposed to reoccur on Jarlsuary 8, and he plans on resetting it for sometime in the *next* KoL year, I believe. Probably sometime in Petember KY 5 if I had to guess.

--MahSpoon

It is being moved to Starch 3. Updated the page appropriately.

I changed it back to Jarlsuary 8... I will refix. My bad.


Oyster Egg Day

From what I understand, it is supposed to recur every April 2 (KoL Calendar, not real world). I'm 99.99% sure that it won't jump around anymore than it has already. --Aardvark 06:01, 9 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

  • well easter floats around between march and april, so i'd assume oyster egg day would do... it has so far. i'm sure there some formula to figure out easter ;-) the first tuesday after the first.... haha --JRSiebz 06:06, 9 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)
  • Well, the only reason it's floated so far is because Jick hadn't determined a KoL date for it to repeat on. The first one occured on the real Easter, as all the other holidays first occured on the actual holiday date. Unlike the other holidays, however, there was a rather large stretch of time between meat-world Easter and KoL April, the ideal month for it to fall in. There should never be two regular KoL calendar holidays that fall within the same KoL month, unless the real-world and kol calendars clash. St. Sneaky Pete's day will likely fall in Starch. --Aardvark 06:18, 9 Jul 2005 (Central Daylight Time)

Dates and Moons

With 16-day moon phases and 8-day months, the moon cycle repeats every 2 months. As the number of months in the KoL year is even, that means every day has its moon constellation. The year starts on the second of the two consecutive moxie days. That means every 5th of a KoL month is a Mysticality day, the 1st of an odd month and the 8th of an even month will be Moxie days, the 1st and 2nd of even months will be muscle days. I tried to color these in in red blue and green, but that seemed to mess with the table setting, so I left it alone. Should this go in here? Should there be a link to the Moons page? I'd find that quite interesting, if only to point out to noobs that the feast of Boris will NEVER fall on a stat day...--Gorgolok

Calendar Images

  • Is there a reason that the image names for the girls of Mar, May, and Nov are different than the other ones? Is it ok to make them consistent? --Fryguy9 15:03, 23 Sep 2005 (MDT)
