        I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but as of this morning, the module is still not performing correctly. Yesterday, I set a simple test for tomorrow. It correctly reported 2 Days Left. This morning (7:09am) it still reports 2 Days Left. I’ve made only the changes that you have advised.

        sorry. no screenshot. I’m not at my normal computer

          {
              			module: 'MMM-doomsDay',
              			position: 'top_right', // This can be any of the regions, best results in center regions
              			config: {
                  			doomsDay: "2017-03-03 24:00:00", // the end day of the countdown, 
                  			toWhat: 'Pay Day is in', // the title of your countdown event
          				present: 'Benjamin Pile!',
          				updateInterval: 1 * 3600000,
          				singular: 'more day!', // what it should say when it's only one day left, default is `Day Left`
          				plural: 'more days', // what it should say when it's more days left, default is `Days Left`
          				}
          		},

            Just glanced at the mirror and doomsDay is now reporting 1 more day. I don’t know at what time that occurred.

              Reporting the correct present: message this morning. I’ll now set a week long countdown and see how that goes. I’ll try not to bother you anymore

                I know I said I would try not to bother you anymore with this but . . .

                I set doomsDay: "2017-03-15 24:00:00", which is the Ides of March, just as a test. I keep testing because I really want this module to work for me. Well, as of 8:50am today, 2017-03-04. the module is reporting 12 More Days instead of 11. The last test didn’t update the Days Left until late morning, early afternoon. I wouldn’t mind if it was slow in updating by an hour or two but it’s no good to me if it’s 12 hours behind

                Sorry

                  @Mykle1 Okay, do a new git pull now. I have altered the method of rounding the numbers, which I should have done from the beginning if I knew better :P

                  Anyhow. Try the new version!

                    I’ll get it right now. Thanks for dealing with this for me.

                    Did the git pull

                    I changed my test to the 7th as a 3 day test. I didn’t want to wait till the 15th to see if it was working correctly. It’s reporting 3 Days Left so that’s an improvement right away. I’ll check it in the morning. Thanks again

                      @broberg date and time stuff can get really painful, that’s why I’m using moment for those tasks. there are some clever brains that thought about all kind of edge cases etc. you might want to check it out http://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/to/

                      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
