01 · Precision
Dates before timers.
An exact announced time can run to the second. A date-only announcement counts whole calendar days in its governing timezone. We never invent midnight to make a timer look more precise.
How it works
A countdown should say what it knows.
We count from source-backed dates and keep uncertainty visible. The number stays simple; the evidence stays close by.
02 · Status
Changes stay visible.
Confirmed, provisional, estimated, postponed and cancelled dates are different states. If a date moves, the countdown and its wording move with it.
03 · Sources
The trail is one click away.
Official and organizer sources come first. Every countdown shows the claim we relied on, when it was checked and a direct link to the source.
