April 3, 2006: Pope Gregory Lives?

Michael Cule, in the latest Alarums and Excursions, raises an interesting point: "The odd thing [about Yrth] is not that the world has the same length of year; it's that it counts the months and years according to the modern Gregorian calendar."

Got me. That is indeed odd.

So I'll pass the challenge on to our GURPS Banestorm players: Explain why this is so. For extra points, embody the explanation in an adventure set in the period when Yrth adopted the Gregorian calendar.

For discussion, I've created a forum topic in the GURPS area.
