ok this sorta has to do with Item findings, but I was wondering, how long is a beat, how dose it compute into our time, and how do you figure out when your best time to find items is?

Hi! I recently found my way back here and was feeling nostalgic. On the off chance that someone comes by here and remembers me, feel free to shoot me a line over on twitter.

1 beat = 1 minute 26.4 seconds.
000 beat time = 00:00/24:00 GMT
It's not confirmed that beat time affects when and if you get a rare. I think it does, some don't. It's up to you to draw your own conclusions

I think all Beats are is an Internet time that suits everyone. Very confusing

Indeed. But the theory is good. Everyone has the same beat time, but not everyone has the same 17:00. So I could say,
"Let's meet at 500 beat time for a game"
Japanese, American and EU all know this time and can join then. But it's not widely used, so noone ever says beat time, and everyone just adjusts for their own time. Shame really.

The beat time is auto synched when you go online. Offline however, it's calculated by the internal clock.
