PP is an alternate era name used in {{favilink|Frivolous Lives, Vol. I}}, which denotes the rule before the 6 sultans. Like BR, the years in PP count backwards. The author denotes PP as "prior [to] publication". The specific year in which Frivolous Lives was published is unknown, but since it references Abram I as ruling from '100?-97?' prior to publication, this places it around 1000AR, since Resheph and Abram were contemporaneous in 3AR.<ref>[[Resheph]]</ref>

* The [[https://wiki.cavesofqud.com/wiki/Merchants#In-depth_Restocking_Formula|restock time for merchants]] is 6000-8500 turns.
* If the player has accidentally rendered someone temporarily hostile (eg an accidental attack, or ill-advised conversation choice) but the faction is still at least neutral to the player, then waiting nearby for about two weeks (16800 turns) for the hostile party or parties to "calm down" will allow peaceful conversations to resume.
