How we verify dates

Trust in the numbers is the product. These rules are public and aren't broken for any amount of money.

1

Dates come from official sources

Every date and time is taken from the publisher: a notice on the official site, a Discord announcement or a store page. The launch page links to the source. Fan sites and rumors are a reason to go look — never a source.

2

Estimates are labeled

When a publisher hasn’t announced a date, we may show an estimate based on the game’s opening history. It is always marked as an estimate and never presented as an announced date.

3

Changes are tracked

If a launch is postponed or cancelled, the page says so and everyone with a reminder gets a Telegram message. We don’t silently rewrite history.

4

Organic placement is not for sale

The order of the calendar, the catalog and the waiting counters can’t be bought. Paid placements, if any, are separate slots with a clear “Sponsored” label.

5

Core features are free

The calendar, reminders and game pages are free forever. Publishers and guilds pay for extra visibility — players don’t pay for the basics.

6

Only gaming ads

Slots are sold only to games, servers, guilds and gaming services. No casinos, betting or gray offers.

“Play” and “Pre-register” buttons on launch pages may contain a partner code. This doesn't affect the counters or organic placement. Found a wrong date? Write to hello@daystart.online — we fix it the same day.
