It's possible, but the first problem that you've got is determining just what time is going to be reported? The US alone has (I think) 5 time zones, so you can't report a single time for all of the US.

Central Time is a valid Time zone, for that time zone use on *:text:!time:*:{
var %msg = $iif($target == $chan,$chan,$nick)
.msg %msg The current time in the Central Time Zone is $calc($gmt - $duration(6:0:0) + $daylight)
}

Standard Time Zones in the US are Eastern-Central-Pacific But keep in mind that Eastern is 3 hours ahead of Pacific and 1 hour ahead of Central.

Actually there are 5 in the continental US .. Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, and Alaska (plus 2 off the continent, Aleutian and Hawaii (Hawaii is different only in the summer because they don't observe daylight savings time).
I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

on *:text:!time:*:{
var %msg = $iif($target == $chan,$chan,$nick)
.msg %msg It is now $left($asctime($calc($gmt - $duration(6:0:0) + $daylight)),-5) Game Time
}
Try this updated code. Not sure how to generate the »» to place in the date/time display

I gave him code for the Central Time Zone because that was the time zone he asked for.
I'm in Canada, and we have 6 time zones.

Remove the + $daylight from the code
Not sure why it was giving that big a discrepancy, but when tested for my time zone (Eastern) it showed correct, with that missing, even though we are on Daylight savings time.
Maybe someone else can explain it.
