Did it work? Because, honestly, messing up electronic clocks (or mechanical clocks powered by electronic motors) does not seem to be evidence of anything that alters time. It seems more evidence that your clocks got screwed up. A power surge, or something similar could account for just about all of this aside from the watch. Clocks themselves are not time... they are tool by which we measure the passage of time. Having three varieties of clocks that inexplicably do not have the same measurement any more is evidence of nothing more than three broken clocks. It does not at all indicate that time has passed differently for any of them.

Also, by what standard did you gauge these deviations? That is to say, how did you determine they were incorrect?

I would say that it work. Since the paper work got done faster than I expected.
I measureed it on my boss reaction to his thought that somebody touched his precious clcok. He has the thing on a secuirty camera, the watches could have been messed, but I doubt that owing to the fact that drawer is locked, and I have the only key. I admot it could just be a coiencidence but I'm not the only one to notice. My cubicle neighboors also pointed out the fact that my work computer clock was wrong.

Well, it's odd to say the least. Lithium batteries have been known to rapidly discharge on occasion, particularly when used in a device intended for normal zinc-based batteries. That may or may not explain that particular issue.

You feeling as though you got it done faster? Again, that can be chalked up to psychology.

Your watch? Again, rather hard to say. And your computer? well, power surges, viruses, worms, etc. All possible.

But then maybe the whole thing worked.

This is why time "magic" is so difficult to nail down. Those who believe it to work simply feel it worked. Otherwise it can largely be explained away by coincidence and psychology. You didn't actually travel through time... You just needed to get the work done.

Actually if you freeze time (or in other words just slow it down) you'll also be slowing yourself down. You'll notice when it becomes difficult to move, you'll see things moving slowly and hear things going into a blur. Its not like in the movie "wanted" where you get to move freely while everything moves slow. Again it is possible to freeze time, stopping it you CAN NOT, but making time go by fast? That only happens if you're doing something you enjoy, such as eating lunch with your friends, going to the movies, or visiting your girlfriend/boyfriend while her/his parents are out of town. Example, You might have noticed in school when your friends say it feels like we've been here forever, you look at the time and you'll notice that class started only 2 minutes ago.

So you can physically freeze time and space... but not speed it up. Couldn't the symptoms of "freezing" it simply be psychosomatic as well?

Actully I use to belong to a different coven on here, under a different name. It was time mages. We discussed stuff like that all the time. I use to want to actully do something like that. The best example I can think of was the mile run back in highschool. Somebody wanted to slow down the coach stopwatch and then speen up his own time. We came to the conculusion it was possible. But that would be to seperate skills and they would have to be done close to simutamiliously. But that kinda hard to pull off.

I was browsing the replies and I read about "having the right Mental Attitude. Having a set of goals" as a response to the topic.

I have not yet come across Mental Magic yet or maybe I have but never knew that is what it is called but Mental Attitude based on my understanding isn't the plans you set for yourself that has to be right. Mental Attitude refers to your beliefs and feelings of the matter which is being talked about. But yes, it is true that an individual can be an influence to another individual, even if they have a different views of the matter being talked about. The influence does not have to be impacting to how a person will think moving forward, it is just how they will view things from a different perspective.

As for Time Distortion. In my opinion and understanding: Stopping Time and Rewinding are both out of the topic. When we say Time Distortion, it pertains to how people perceive time. And that will be: How Fast or Slow time moves. Stopping Time and Rewinding is I will consider Time Travel.

For people that says "Time just seems to fly nowadays. It has already been a year since we last saw each other" Time is what we are measuring here. But if it is the Distortion, we compute for the speed to how time travelled.

Speed = Velocity : Distance travelled divided by Time it took to get there.

If you set your mind to how a clock moves, as well as those people around you, you will say time is slow.

If you are occupied with a task, time will be faster.

That is just how it is.

Is it possible? From what I've experienced myself I believe it is. As for any contradictions I'm not sure to be honest as I hardly understand what I'm doing as I experience it. As for what spell it is? I don't use a traditional spell. It's more or less simply using my energy to effectively change the perception of time. Since time is relative I'm not entirely sure we can affect it directly without a massive strength of will.
