Detailed Description of the Problem The time interval shown to players is off by nearly one week. While the date is accurate, the interval itself (x days, x weeks) is not. This could cause some confusion and missed sessions if someone just glances at the page. Steps to Reproduce the Problem Set a campaign's Next Game date to be 13 days in the future, which is shy 1 day of being 2 weeks away. The interval displayed states 1 week. Description of Your Setup (Browser + Version, Operating System, etc.) Chrome and Firefox in both Mac OSX and Ubuntu Linux. Screen shot attached with Google result for "date"

I agree. I've noticed the same issue. It works fairly nicely when your game is counting down the hours ("3 hours from now"... it's usually fairly accurate). It seems to do more poorly on the switch from "2 weeks from now" to "1 week from now" --- seeming to say one week when it is 10 days or more in the future. It can cause confusion. As a suggestion -- Perhaps under 14 days it could count down the "days" instead of weeks, example "10 days from now".
