An ingame clockfunction... A central point of reference timewise for better coordination for nationmixguilds..
It doesnt matter if its accurate vs yankee doodle time or east asia, the main thing would be that its everybodys gametime.

That would really help organizing people to get together at the same time.

Doesnt all smartphones have the function to drag down the slide from top? Its invisible but if you drag from top of device (if holding the phone as the game is designed for) it brings down a slide were u can see both battery and time without interrupting the game.

Not exactly what he was saying. He wants a clock that holds the same time for everyone regardless of timezone so if someone says to be on at 3pm game time, everyone will know when that is because the time will be the same for everyone in the game.

An easier method of what you were saying though would be simply to just lock the phone and look at the time on the lock screen then unlock it to come back.

I bet GREE doesn't have an in-game clock because they want you to lose track of time while playing! lol ;)

Same reason you never see a clock or window in a grocery store or casino ;)

Off topic, but sure, I for one absolutely hate how long it takes me to buy groceries. I always get stuck behind the grandmother who absolutely insists that her 40 cent coupon from 1970 is still good, and demands to see the manager, or the family that insists on bringing every single f$cking cousin, aunt, uncle, stepbrother, and adopted screaming infant; or the woman in the aisle that spends 15 dntdyinbgt minutes trying to do basic math in her head to save fifteen cents on her whipped cream by searching through the entire shelf for the absolutely cheapest one. A clock to tell me how much of my precious off work time is being wasted by these morons would just make me angry. A store where nobody but 2 adults between the ages of 20-35 is allowed in and where nothing but plastic is accepted would make my day.

Or just institute my patented solution of mandatory birth control for low IQ... It would take a while but it would fix the solution at the root.

Seeing out of a window is a subtle reminder to finish up and leave. The less you keep track of time the longer you are in the store and the longer you are in the store the more money you will spend.

This doesn't apply to groceries in my opinion. You go to the grocery knowing what you need to feed yourself for the week, find that stuff and buy it. No amount of extra time spent in a grocery would make me buy more

That might be people like you and me, but it's not the general population. All kinds of studies have gone into grocery store layout. For example, the reason necessary items like milk and eggs are in the back is so that customers have to pass buy other items first.
