I've tried to search and find this, but I haven't found it - how long after ringing the Gong can I ring it again, in real time? I usually run at 2x. I've seen people say they ring it "every day" - is that a Village day, or a real day? I want to see more things it does!!!
Thanks!

It's a real day. You can ring the gong every 24 hours.

Its like if you ring it 14.10.07 12:01, you can ring it on 15.10.07 12:01 but not 15.10.07 11.01

Guess I'm a moron. I thought after you put the gong together and rang it the game was over.
Can someone please point me to where it continues and what the point of ringing the gong is?

The gong is probably one of the most-discussed features of VV2. Look here, here, and here for some of the best discussions about the gong.

You might also find some of the discussions about continuing the game interesting. Here's one to get you started.

Thanks for the tips. I will read up!
