I think itās not so logical american style of date: MM/DD/YYYY, or 12 january 2022.
@PlayForFun Perhaps spell out the month when using dates, so to avoid confusion? Different languages/cultures use different styles to note dates, and when giving the month in letters prevents the wrong interpretation. So you could do JAN/12/2022 and then everybody would understand which date you mean, even if they are not used to this notation.

You were right it is January 12th @WaVe
I have adjusted the dates in OP.

Most people here would always say āJanuary 12ā not ā12 Januaryā so for us the European notation of putting the date before the month is quite strange.

Day / Month / Year is logical because itās chronological.
Are āmost people hereā american? That might be true but it might not.
12 January or January 12 is moot anyway because thereās no confusion.
12/01 and 01/12 is problematic.

When I said here I meant most people in America.
Yes itās logical to go small to large but when you donāt speak that way it causes confusion.

@Shunt like I said: different cultures use different notations, and a notation which isnāt the one youāre used tends to be not logical to you.
But spelling out the month also solves the ambiguity, so even if itās not in the notation youāre used to, you still get which date is meant. So thanks @play4fun.
Now back to the topic: Three kingdoms. I guess we need to wait to see how the event turns out in beta. Big thanks to @play4fun for keeping us informed.

Yeah, 1 more hour is remaining from Sign-up phase.
If I see anything more in Preparation phase, then I will update the OP.
After sign-up you can just see whaich Kingdom will you fight for.
I will be in āWuā Kingdom I hope it will be as strong as Wu-Kong when he does not miss

This is all bringing back memories. When I used to work in Canada the whole date stuff used to constantly wreck my head. I grew up for years writing it one way, then had to train my brain to do the opposite, then after moving back home after 10 years retrain it all over again. 
Even worse was people not understanding when I said quarter past or quarter to for the time. And seriously watching sports with the timer going from 15.00 mins to zero instead of the 0 to end like I was used to .
Anyway thatās my O/T meandering for the day. As you wereā¦

Spoiler alert : In history, they lasted the longest among the 3 kingdoms, but still got conquered in the end

Yeah, these date formats can be confusing.
Where I leave the date format is YYYY/MM/DD, but I am working for an US company so the MM/DD/YYYY is natural for me too.
Thx for the info

For me, the MOST exciting thing about E&P is also the most painful thing = RnG mystery !
As I approach my 2nd year with the game in 2 week, I am now, settled about the RnG aspect (all kinds of play, summons, etc).
Hence, from the first reading, find this format of the 3-Kingdoms to be BRILLIANT !
Have a fairly decent roster to play itā¦
&
Decision to hold one set of 4* mats for every colour is also working good, to level up a recent hero immediately.
While, loyalty / friendships in alliance is good but is also overrated & full of dramaā¦
So,
Playing with unknown teams is going to have its unknown aspect but also FuNā¦
It will also bring out brilliance in the new groupies to get the job doneā¦
In case the game allows communication among the new teams, I also see some new alliances cropping up & people shifting out 
I like new thing & look forward to it !
Good luck with your 3 Kingdom War, Wu Warrior. Lol

It looks familiar to wars but there are some differences.
I hope the Skillfull Swordmasters will win

Oh! Now this is curious! SGās answer to a battle royale type format, perhaps? 
Regardless, despite what some are saying here, Iām all for it! Give me the randomness! It sounds like fun to me!
I hope they have some form of automatic translation in the chat though or weāll be like cats, dogs, and hamsters trying to talk to each other

There is no automatic translation in chat.
In Beta there are suggestions to try to match players based on their display or alliance language.
