Talk:Cycle

I've rewritten the page to try to add sources for the arguments it gives. I've also written up a summary, but I'd like to know if it should be added at the end of the article, or remade for the lead. Glorious  CHAOS!  20:24, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

In summary, a cycle is a unit of time equivalent to the orbital period of a certain planet or satellite in the local region. It is divided into 1000 "days", which are further divided into 10 "hours". As rogue planets do not have orbital periods, the length of their cycle is instead defined by their "day". Dates are written in the format cycle.day.hour, and the date 00.000.0 is based on some important local event in the Galactic Federation's history. A decacycle is 10 cycles, and a centicycle is 100 cycles.
