Chat 16 Schedule

Kloreep · July 13, 2003, 16:52

Time to schedule the weekday chat. I'd like to do one on wednesday US time again.

When do we plan to go to war? MWIA and GK seem to only have a few hours in common, so I'm wondering who to "favor" in scheduling this one.

GodKing · July 14, 2003, 10:53

I would prefer early morning my time - say 5 to 7 eastern.

As this will not be a war chat, I can leave some detailed instructions / orders and that will cover most of my movements. Favor MWIA as the diplo stuff takes forever and is so important.

UnOrthOdOx · July 14, 2003, 15:27

hm...3-5 AM.

It really doesn't look like we are changing from my original schedule that received all the criticism all that much....

Kloreep · July 14, 2003, 22:39

Wednesday ~21:00-03:00 GMT is out for me, but the rest of the day is open. MWIA? NM?

Tassadar500 · July 14, 2003, 23:26

What about 18:00 GMT?

MrWhereItsAt · July 14, 2003, 23:29

From 1800 Wednesday until 2000 or so is possible for me, but I'd need to hear a definite on that in the next 10 hours.

Beyond that, Wednesday from 0000 until 0700 GMT is dodgy for me, but I can theoretically do anytime after then until 1800GMT. 0700-1400GMT is great, after then it would interfere with sleep but worse things have happened to me (and recently), so what the hey - any of these times if it fits best.

Tassadar500 · July 15, 2003, 20:52

1800 is ok for MWIA. What about for everyone else?

UnOrthOdOx · July 15, 2003, 20:57

I really doubt that would work for GK. That would be 10 AM his time. About 1/3 through the workday.

Considering the situation, though, perhaps an assistant can be named for this chat?

Kloreep · July 16, 2003, 01:12

Argh, I need to start these sooner.

As I have a test starting in the late afternoon and going in to evening tomorrow, a 4 AM CDT chat wouldn't be best for me. Without something sceduled now, I doubt we'll fit in any turnplay, but I'll try to be on-line by 0200 GMT Thursday (late wednesday night US time) in case a chat can be fit in then.

It's likely we won't be able to play much if it all on wednesday, however, so what about a thursday chat? I'm gone 2300 thursday to 0200 Friday, but pretty much any other time would work. I could go as early as 0900 GMT for GK, especially if this is the penultimate war declaration chat. (Any timetable yet?)

In future, could you guys please post ALL chat times that are reasonable for you on the suggested date? Whether or short or one-item list or a few times that are not possible, it would help to know where those times interlap and what times are out, rather than discussing one possibility at a time.

Edit: Wednesday night I'll try to be on-line, not necessarily thursday.

GodKing · July 16, 2003, 13:05

Thursday will be bad for me. I have to start work at 6 am (11:00 GMT) and work until 5pm. Then, I have a planning commission meeting I have to go to starting at 7pm and going until 11 pm. On friday I am off work because I am getting the lasik surgery. I was plannning on doing a very comprehensive set of orders tonight that should cover us through the beginning of war.

Tassadar500 · July 16, 2003, 13:51

So when are we doing the chat now? 0200 GMT Thursday?

Kloreep · July 16, 2003, 22:20

As I don't see anyone else in the chat (and it looks like MWIA is not on), It looks like we may have to re-schedule for Thursday sometime (hopefully GK will have in-absentia orders by then. Looks like we'll be without our SMC this chat; unless the lasik surgery is later in the day GK? We should be fine anyway, since this should just be pre-war...).

Thursday morning, late afternoon, and late evening are all open for me. What times would be good for you, NM and MWIA?

Here are three of the possibilities for start times: 1500-1600 GMT Thursday, 2000 GMT Thrsday, and 0200 GMT Friday (Remember, also Thursday US time). Probably too late to agree on a 1500-1600 time, but what about the other two?

Tassadar500 · July 16, 2003, 22:55

I could do 2000 GMT Thurs.

MrWhereItsAt · July 16, 2003, 23:36

WHich server are we using? I am confused and can't find my way to the right one.

Kloreep · July 16, 2003, 23:43

Undernet.

Kloreep · July 17, 2003, 00:00

Okay, Chat 16 will be at 2000 GMT Thursday on Undernet's #civ3dem channel.

Master Zen · July 17, 2003, 03:14

I'm there... I can sub for GK if he is unable to make it, I wish him luck with his surgery!

MrWhereItsAt · July 17, 2003, 11:09

I may be a little late - if I am, just go ahead wihtout me, and whore maps as much as possible.

Kloreep · July 17, 2003, 23:41

I showed up 30 minutes late and Master Zen was the only one in the chatroom.

I apologize if I missed anyone who showed up before I did.

I will make sure I'm on time from now on.

Tomorrow (Friday): 1700 Friday to 0100 Saturday (GMT) works for me as a starting time. Ministers? Please post when you are available during that time.

I hope we can do it tomorrow, saturday is too late for the weekday chat even if I could do one then.

Tassadar500 · July 17, 2003, 23:44

0100 GMT. I like that

MrWhereItsAt · July 18, 2003, 00:02

With Poly going down at some point we couldn;t have done very much anyway.

0100 GMT is feasible. I will make sure I am at my computer at about that time.

Kloreep · July 18, 2003, 00:12

Okay, chat will be 0100 saturday GMT in #civ3dem on Undernet. Remember, that's friday for the Americas.

It'll happen this time. Really it will. Really.

Panag · July 18, 2003, 08:29
