Hey guys, I have some more suggestions.

The good thing about moving Infinity War a few months later to accomodate Scott's house arrest, is that it means that the sunrise can be earlier and the sunset can be later. But one of my suggestions would be to ignore the sunrise and sunset times, as it has been shown to not necessarily be true to real life.

For example, at the beginning of The Winter Soldier, Steve receives a message at 6:39 AM and the sun is already up, which isn't accurate with real life sunrise times of Washington DC in January. I don't think the filmmakers really think about the daylight time accuracy to the time of year in regards to the movies, and I think the same thing could apply here. As long as the daytime events are after the earliest possible sunrise and before the latest possible sunset, I think it's fine.

However, if Infinity War takes place after Daylight Saving Time, then that changes things from BEJT's post here https://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:224967#250, as New York is now 6 hours ahead of Tahiti, instead of just 5. Wakanda and Tahiti are still 12 hours apart though.

In light of this, I think it might be better to ignore the 10:24 time from Fury's car. Unlike the 1:21-1:42 time from Tony's phone (which is in focus and in plain sight), 10:24 isn't in the main focus and is easy to miss. That alone wouldn't be enough to disregard it, but considering the issues it causes, I don't think it should be a big deal if it's ignored.

I think the 0:24 makes sense to be kept, but the hour doesn't really matter as long as it's after the earliest possible sunrise and before the earliest possible sunset. I guess the snap could be at around 6:24 AM in Tahiti, 9:24 AM in San Francisco, 12:24 PM in New York and 6:24 PM in Wakanda. Ignoring the 10:24 time adds two more hours of leeway.

I did some rough math, using BEJT's breakdown of the last couple of episodes of AoS season 5, and I figured that if the timing is kept more or less the same as BEJT posted, it actually leaves a lot more time for those episodes to reasonably reach their conclusion before the Snap.

I can post my rough breakdown here, if anyone is interested.
