The Hammertime has several definitions:

  1. The official time zone of CTY Lancaster Session 2, especially during Silent Football, but still applicable elsewhere.
  2. The time on the watch of Jeff Sachs, which may or may not correspond with CTY time.
  3. The time on the watch of the person wearing the Hammertime mood ring.

Unfortunately, Jeff has lost the mood ring, which he had planned on passing down to the next Keeper of the Hammertime.

Origin of the Hammertime

Hammertime was created during a game of Silent Football during LAN.05.2, some time after music was declared existant within the universe.

During this game, MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This" was being played from a Kunkel balcony. The universe was dancing happily. Suddenly, horror of unspeakable horrors, a player wanted to know what time it was! Said player raised said player's hand and made said player's query, stating, "Mr. Dictator, what is the current time?" to which Mr. Dictator replied, "It is the Hammertime." To which the ever-curious player replied, "What is the current hammertime?" A certain player, Dr. Strangelove or: Etymologies SUCKS, was then called on and said, "Mr. Dictator, the current Hammertime is X:YZ." The term Hammertime was used repeatedly to ask this question, and the same player always had the answer. That player then made a request, saying, "Mr. Dictator I motion that the official time zone of the Universe be the Hammertime!" This motion was granted and has been enstated ever since.
