So seasons last 6 days, right? So you could have "winter, day 3" somewhere or "5 days until spring" or some other indication like that so those of us who didn't remember when they saw the icon change can still think about when winter is going to start/end or similar things. There might be a more immersion-y way to phrase it - maybe a series of phrases that suggest non-specifically where in the season we are like "Winter has begun" "early winter" "winter" "the dead of winter" "winter is ending soon" "The end of winter" or a changing visual indicator I like knowing but am forgetful regarding how many days ago I saw an icon change haha |

The cooldown page already does this, it shows the season and the number of days until it changes again. |

Charon Click your name at the top of the page where it says "Welcome back" - the cooldown page is accessible by that dropdown. |

If you click on your username under the top menu bar? There should be an arrow by it. That opens a menu to go to your profile, userlog, cooldowns and some setting stuff. |

Oh I've never noticed that. XD Maybe THAT should be a bit more visible. Thats way to useful to hide it there. Like.. I've NEVER used that to access my profule - because the link in the den is much more obvious. And the recent activities on the mainpage links to the user log. They definitely should add that link somewhere more visible. |

Yeah I had no idea bout that, but I'm glad to know now, thank you! I wouldn't have necessarily thought of the seasons as a "cooldown" and wouldn't have thought to look for seasonal changes under that. I've never looked at that page before it hadn't occurred to me as containing anything I needed to know since every other bit of info on that page is available somewhere else and the one cooldown I think about frequently isn't there (pregnancy cooldowns in female wolves) |

Even knowing about the cooldown page, I would like to see a more straightforward days counter. The one on the cooldown page is a countdown and, since me and math are not best friends, sometimes I struggle in calculate what day we are in in that seasons. And I know there are players that, especially when Winter comes, plan their pregnancy to avoid winter puppies and have to count when it's safe to breed (or in the case of those partecipating in The Pupper Games, when to breed to have pups in winter) I would also like to write down the day the pups I'm keeping were born, but as of now it's too much and I'm only tracking the "Year" they are born. So a X day of [season] counter written somewhere (even in the cooldown page) would be much appreciated! |

Yeah, the cooldown page is not an intuitive place to have this at all. Maybe it could be in the mouseover that just says "Winter" right now? |

I've had many times where i ferget how much longer winter is for example as i dislike playing when the game is winter mode due to me doing 'rites' for my wolves and winter makes things a bit harder than needed for them. I knew about the cooldownpage but that gets annoying to check esp if you only like to RO to play during certain seasons or just to check in on something. Just me though |
