Imagine what calamities would befall the galaxy if Microsoft Excel was told the 999.M40 date format.

I'd rather be eaten by the warp

I will never gripe about mixed DD/MM and MM/DD datasets ever again, it’s sooo bad

Check Number

The check number refers to the accuracy in the date as compared to time on Terra, with 0 being the most accurate and 9 being the least.

  • A 0 means that the event occurred on Terra.
  • A 1 means that the event occurred within the Sol system.
  • A 2 means that the event occurred while someone present for the event was in direct psychic contact with Terra or the Sol system.
  • A 3 means that an individual or organization present was in psychic contact with a 2 source while the event occurred.
  • A 4 means that the individual or organization was in contact with a 3 OR 2 source.
  • A 5 means that the individual or organization was in contact with a 4 source.
  • A 6 means that the individual or organization was in contact with a 5 source.
  • A 7 means that the event in question occurred within 10 years of the date listed in the rest of the Imperial date.
  • An 8 means that the event occurred within 20 years of the date. A 9-class source is an approximated date, and is usually used when recording a date within Warp travel or while on a planet that does not use the Imperial system.

Oh dear god-emperor that is bad. But also kinda makes sense for the situation? Measuring time in year-fractions instead of date would make a lot more sense on any planet other than Earth, and using local days would make things far too messy.
