: Actually, from what I can tell, the duration of seconds is the same, if you note the time clocks in the CIC in "33" (ignoring the [[Continuity errors (RDM)#Prop and Equipment Errors|obvious gaffes]] that occur in that episode due to editing). This is also supported in "Faith" during the countdown on ''Demetrius''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> bridge, which supports the direct correlation between Earth time and Colonial time. The only thing that hasn't been nailed down is how they name their days of the week, their months, or how they note their years—there are at least two different documents that contradict each other in noting year dates. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]]</sup> 14:35, 27 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

Truncation

Twelve Colonies Series
- Move to "Timekeeping in the Twelve Colonies" or somesuch, and add to the Twelve Colonies series? --Peter Farago 17:13, 26 December 2006 (CST)
- It's a better title, yours, and fits better in keeping the data in a superarticles like Science and Twelve Colonies (I like them). I'll keep this as a redirect for shorthand but look into moving it. --Spencerian 19:45, 26 December 2006 (CST)
Colonial seconds
You infer that there are as many Colonial seconds in a Colonial year as there are Earth seconds in an Earth year. However, you neglected to mention that Colonial seconds have been established as a little longer than Earth seconds (Miniseries, 33, Hand of God.) --MHall 12:02, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
