Thanks for posting. I was just using Worldtimebuddy[0] yesterday to get times for about 15 different cities and order them. A single view in WTB caps out at 10 or so locations, so …

I also made pretty heavy use of plugins to manage PCs, NPCs, encounters, items (!!), custom tables, maps, and setting details in a single campaign. Led to a lot of bug reports for …
