JO years
« on: July 20, 2012, 11:19 AM »
Just curious as to how this year system works, and if anyone could either explain/link me up to archives of the past so I can get to know the order better  :P

Each JO year = 1 real life month.

It's like a counter of how long the order has been alive. However I think (if i Remeber correctly) the guild wasn't actually officially founded till year fifty-something?

Oh I see, thank you Knight Tomius :)

I noticed there were a few different threads to do with incomplete histories on the Lore page, but is their a complete History anywhere?

It's on these forums, and on the old ones, and some of them on the History boards, and a few are only in the memories of its bearers... As with the real history, something just gets slipped away :)

We're really lucky to have Knight Scalarik here who's currently recollecting all the known knowledge there's around. If you have any questions about the history, he's the man you need :)

Well currently I'm not doing any active recollecting, but in the future I will :)

The founding of this Order happened on JO year 64, which dates back to April 2003 ;). That makes us 111 months old, which in turn is 9 years and 3 months.

Quite an old Order then! I'm glad to be apart of something with such rich history. No doubt i'll be pestering you like some annoying child at somepoint, Knight Scalarik  :P

But for now i'll carry on looking through the sites archives.

I thank all three of you greatly for your assistance,

Don't worry about pestering, Hopeful Lulmali. JO history is my speciality, you're always welcome to trouble me with questions about it.
