People set their clock back to bypass some DRM, I never heard of people breaking DRM by setting it forward... So, there's no reason for any "idiot" to have their clock set 1 year ahead.

Okay, my logic is this: how many people bought the game? Probably a few hundred thousand? People tend to find the most random bugs, having your clock set ahead doesn't seem that odd. Or so I thought.

For example, if Microsoft Word "expired" in 2010, I bet it'd be found out pretty quick. Just dunno how large that Gears crowd is.
