Randomise the time zone so that no one Stacker has the first mover advantage at all times
I hope they do that experiment soon. I'm really curious to see if we get more night (US time) activity that way.

Perhaps we should move to a 25-hour day or use a variation of a block clock…

I like the idea of a block clock! So innovative n exemplifies the purpose of this platform
reply
I like it, too. There's no reason that the two ideas can't be merged.
SN could randomly choose a block that's going to be mined in the next 12 to 36 hours.

Would be more fun than MSM

I like the idea of it being unpredictable to a larger degree.
My thought would be to randomly choose a value between 12 and 36 and let that be the length of the current day.

That’s a good idea. Should you keep the timer on display?
reply
My gut says no, because I don’t want people to game it.
However, it might be worth trying it both ways to see what happens.
reply
My gut says no too. Prior to MSM, we never knew our position relative to others, so all we could do is post n comment the best way we knew how. It was a simpler time haha
My thought is no. But I’m not sure how many Stackers do watch the clock to game it.
