This is broken, btw.  The way 5E0 is phrased, someone can go ahead and
turn the clock on during the emergency and resume game time:
{
1. Game time is stopped. Whatever means used in the Game to track time
is stopped as of the beginning of the Emergency. Pending events and
deadlines relative to Game time, with the exception of those specified
in this rule, are postponed until Game time resumes. Pending events
and deadlines with absolute dates and times do not occur.
}
