                Perhaps why not live long enough to reach that year and tell us what would happen at that point in the afterlife?

                  I see it's "YYYYMMDD", but this will only work until 9999, what do we do after that year? Go back to 0000?

                    Very welcome news. This problem was also with the gcam mods. Really irritating. But now it's gone.
