But I think that if you do develope a new tag that everyone else's program will just ignore it and not cause trouble about your unusual tags. Pete 9.5: Time and date related information The following tags assist with further refinement of the time and data information associated with a game. 9.5.1: Tag: Time This uses a time-of-day value in the form "HH:MM:SS"; similar to the Date tag except that it denotes the local clock time (hours, minutes, and seconds) of the start of the game. Note that colons, not periods, are used for field separators for the Time tag value. The value is taken from the local time corresponding to the location given in the Site tag pair. 9.5.2: Tag: UTCTime This tag is similar to the Time tag except that the time is given according to the Universal Coordinated Time standard.
