Why? Day, night, time, seasons are different "everywhere" in the real
world? My original home-mud :) even involved all the planets in the
solar system. I don't see much problems in having one zone with
daylight always, one zone with 1 earth hour is 1 real time minute, one
zone with 1 earth hour is 1 real time hour or any other timing scheme.
Actually it would be great fun, you could have "evil"-players
constantly on the move, looking for night and moons or whatever.
