Why is it alway daytime in Cyrodil?

The war in Cyrodil is stuck perpetually on a perfect sunny afternoon at about 2 o'clock. Weather might be a bit much to ask, but why is there no nighttime? We have this magic map that lets us know when anything is under attack, but at least darkness would allow groups to move possibly unseen and add a dimension to strategy.

Is it the same reason there are no pesky deer?

    Confirmed.

    But a real dark night would be cool, the kind where you're glad you brought a destro staff for a little light. Imagine watching the zerg roll by lit up with torches and pitchforks...

    I stand corrected. And embarrassed. It's always been daylight when I've been to Cyro.

    Nights are pretty rare though. 3/4 of my play sessions is in always day.

    That would be awesome. I don't know if you ever watched a movie called "the 13th warrior" but, that's what it would remind me of, the fireworm.........

    IIRC from early days when people asked about this, and someone posted an answer, in-game day cycle is 6hs real time, 2hs of night and 4hs of day.

    So, if you always log in at the same time on your day, chances are that in-game time is always the same for you.

    'Twas the torchbugs milord, they did upon they dying breath exact a curse upon the land, being such that upon they extinction all torchbug souls ought then blot out the night sky wit' an unquenchable sparkle-- a forever-day, milord-- one that stretches hither and dither, yither and yon, an' only through certified auditing sessions can we rid the sky of the torchbugs' effervescent souls, being as the everlasting daylight is the source of wot we in unenlightened societies have mistakenly labeled as "psychological maladies".
