What time is it?

As a sideways segue to my "What year is it?" question (
http://www.alandfaraway.info/phpBB3/vie ... 83&t=52216) ...
What is the ratio between game time and RL time. In other words, how many minutes in RL does it take for 24 hours to pass on Waterdeep? Or, if it is easier, how many minutes RL does it take for one hour of game time to pass? (I used to know all of this stuff!)

I've always figured on "comic book time". That is while a lot happens (even a few days sometimes) during sessions, we otherwise figure that a RL day = a game day.
In other words, don't worry about the time really.

I think WW may be referring to game mechanics. And I’m not sure, but when it just turns 18 and I want to map the last bits of the north ward, the answer is, “too long.”
FWIW when my toon refers to a day or a tenday, I usually mean RL day or RL week. Unless within a single session, when I stick to game time.

I think it's 7 min per RL hour.

It looks like it's 8 minutes RL.

Yep. Got in game a tracked it for a while today. 7 was too short. More like 8
