AMIA ARCHIVE • View topic - OOC: Time Planning for that thing with the people somewhere

Those linked here know what this is for. Please use this thread to establish a Doodle and countdown for that thing at the place with the stuff.

Here I will post the time until the JOINT event with You-know-what and You-know-who

BACKUP TIME: NEXT SATURDAY 2014-05-10 23:00 GMT+0 (LONDON TIME)

Explanation
We will use the PRELIMINARY TIME as the AIM. If we fall short on people and only 2-3 appear, we will postpone the event and use the BACKUP TIME

Reasoning
Why was this time decided upon? It's a time where MOST Americans and Europeans are available, MOST people are Online and MOST events are scheduled.

Psst, both countdowns are the same :3

I am not available at the PRELIMINARY TIME; because shrimp boil! The BACKUP TIME would work for me. HOWEVER, that other character that is not G'eld'ardul is already committed to this event. If it is back to a joint effort those other people won't require her to get them there, though, and thus G'eld'ardul could participate.

Both Dead and Very_Svensk are available for the PRELIMINARY TIME and the BACKUP TIME.'

Edit: Does it work for you now naivatkal?

Okay... weird, the times keep changing. Can you PM me the link to the actual site? Might work right for me then. I don't know what's going on with it haha.

Based on my initial glance at timezones I -might- be available for those. I think it's 7p EST for me, which is a bit early but I might be able to swing it. I definitely was on track for coming to the expedition initially.

Yeah. The countdowns can apparently not be used simultaneously. I'll see if I can't remove the last one.

Edit: there. If we decide upon the backup time I'll activate it again

Haha, nice. Works perfectly now!

I'll need to talk with the wifey and see if tomorrow will work. I doubt we are not going to be home, and so I should be good. Else the backup, same thing.

So long as it doesn't cut into Game of Thrones, I'm in. That appears to be a Sunday CST?

Should be Sunday 6p CST, as it should be 7p EST.

Argh converting GMT is really a PITA -_-

Ack. Sundays are impossible for me, because they are my Mondays.

Can we try to aim for Saturdays?

Are you Aussie?

I think we should try this Sunday, se how many appear. If it's like 2-3 people then of course we will use the backup time. If not - Progress!

And dusty - you download game of thrones damnit!!

Like a r-e-a-l person.

I pay to watch it live so I can support it, and by extension, give you more episodes full of beautiful CGI and Stark Deaths.

There are some IC things going on that will affect the start-date of this so we can't do tomorrow.

So nothing of this tonight?

if we are on for tonight. i can make it! negotiations required with missus. but i should be able to take part!

we can do tonight. The certain IC things we need to discuss can be done prior to the event in itself.

It's Sunday... Is the timer still supposed to show 1 day and 5 hours to go?

Hehe. Refresh it a few times.

We will proceed as planned tonight: IF it works it works!

Oh, good, because I'm going to make it :3 Shifting my online times up to 7p-10p if we do it.

So it is roughly 10 hours and 30 minutes from this post?

If so, I -should- be around with a momentary pause as I will need to eventually switch locations which should only take about 10-ish minutes.

(6 hours)

Oh. Can't stay longer than 10 minutes before Game of Thrones >.< Your timer, even when I refresh, shows:

10 Hours and counting down.

What time does GoT start in CST?

8pm CDT.

I have other social obligations involved with it though.

Backup time is gonna be used it would seem.

Not quite sure. His GoT stuff starts at 8, The event itself at 5. Plenty o time

Social obligations start in 2 hours for me.

Weekly Potluck before the viewing party.

That's the final nail in the coffin

Yes, We need to use the backup time then. I'll switch around and post a new countdown. :mrgreen:

This is weird. 1 hr 15 min from now (countdown says 6 days 1 hour 15 min currently for me) is 7p (it's 5:45p EST as of my posting), which means it will be Saturday at 7p EST not at 6p.

So... for some reason the countdown seems to be 1 hour later than what it should be. Anyone else seeing this?

Hmm... I don't know if it incorporates daylight savings time or summertime?

You gotta hit the "Reload" button to see the accurate countdown timer. It for some reason displays a different time when the thread first loads. Hit the reload button, then it shows the correct countdown time.

Yep! Press F5

Nope, I know that and already had done it several times ;p

Right now the countdown is around 5 days 8 hours. 8 hours from now is 7p EST, which means the countdown is pointing to Saturday at 7p not 6p. So, sounds like the countdown is just being stupid with DST or something (though it'd be good to make sure it's set correctly on the site).

Ah! Solved it.

We're getting more activity from Tarkuul this time.

As for me (Shynt'aonar) I'd love to come and see this "activity" and meet ya people, but I'm on a music festival during the weekend...

Hit F5 to refresh the countdown.

Is this even happening after yesterday's negotiations?

Yep. Today negotiations solved it

This is a thing that is happening.

Kewl.

I will try to be there. Lots of RL shit hit the fan. Dealing with it as best I can.

so uh its time now why am I like the only one on B in nec when i haven't been involved in anything up to this point

It's in 1 hour. At least, my GMT clock says it's only 22:00 GMT right now.
