Speaking for myself, I'd only say that the idea of a countdown timer implies that we know with any certainty at all when the event will end. Each and every time prior to now, this one included, the stated end time has been inaccurate. To use the stated end time in order to post a countdown clock with second-level precision is just silly. We don't know that information, and to claim we do is wrong.

Even if the date in-game is accurate (to my knowledge it has never once been so), it does not tell us the second. We pretend that we know something with specificity but we don't.

So I'm firmly in the anti-Bane camp here; there is harm in pretending we know something we don't. There's less harm in posting the information we were given.
