Let’s say people can’t agree on the time to go to bed, and each timezone declared war on every other timezone. Who would win in this conflict? What alliances would form, and will there be betrayal? What would the new world order look like with a standard time for everyone?

GMT+8 looks good with the entire population of China on its side. GMT+1 and +2 have large chunks of Europe and Africa and could be quite strong too. The timezones in the east and west coast of the U.S. might also stand a good chance.

Definitely +8, they have like a third of the world's population.

The first to lose world be +8.25 they're at the bottom of Western Australia. There's roughly 12 people there unless Bruce is passing through. A fuck ton of emu war veterans though. From the side that won

    Not to mention that the entirety of China, a singular political and military entity (a fairly strong one nonetheless), is somehow all +8 due to a technicality

    Now all of China knows you're here!
