I want to only play at night, help me

I have been trying yo play ESO only at night lately. Why? Because I think Elder Scrolls Online has the most beautiful nighttime I have ever seen in any game. The way the moonlight reflects of the water, etc.

I have been trying to study the day/night cycle. Last weekend I noticed that when I logged in at 230pm pacific time and 530pm pacific time it was dark in game, which roughly every three hours it goes dark. The issue is that 230pm time has now changed because the ESO cycle is not the same is the real 24 hour cycle.

I really wish I could nail this down somehow. Where in the outside world. I could say for sure without logging in, if I know its going to be day or night. Any ideas?

    Time does seem to go faster in ESO, but ... other than that sorry no help here.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    I've seen it said on the forums that the day/night cycle lasts 6 hours, with 4 daylight hours and 2 night hours. I hope that helps!

    Like all games, the time scale is shortened. I have never paid attention to it figure out what the cycle is.

    I do like the nights to play, and, for farming Enchanting Runes, Lore Books and Books of Interest (the ones that glow but are not Lore for the Mages Guild), night is best as you can see them from a long way off.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
