Marathon Survivor - Interest/Dates? (Post in thread DATES)

[animorpherv1]

Alright, since interest in this has been brought up (again) but Xalxe's thread got eaten by the Rewind, I decided it might be a good idea too make a new thread.


Mod: ??? (I'd be more than willing to mod if no one else will. Stealing old challenges is fun).

Interested People:

- Mist7676
- animorpherv1
- izakthegoomba
- TheBadOne
- Shiidaji
- kdowns
- Cheery Dog
- Nicholas1024
- Twistedspoon
- JDGA
- KageLord
- Dramonic

Another discussion that should come up is day and time.

Things to consider:

1. izak &
   TBO
   TS live in UK (TBO livesin Netherlands), Cheery Dog is
   West Coast US
   Australia I think.
   
2. Shiidaji can only play dependent on certain days.
   
3. BACK TO SCHOOL SEASON is very soon (it's August 3rd). If this is happening, it needs to happen within the next week and a half (so by like August 15th/16th), imo.
   
4. I think I'm forgetting something.

Also, just as a reminder: For things like this to work,

EVERYONE

needs some form of instant messaging service. The most popular on MS appears to be AIM. As the challenges would have very strict (like 30 minute to 1 hour) deadlines, so Mass-PMing the entire team would be very slow.

And my Crazy ass Work schedule.

If the date is set about 2-3 weeks in advance I can get it off.

[Shiidaji]

Uh
I was under the impression that Mist wanted to run the game, considering how she worded her post.

[Nicholas1024]

I'm interested, but I can't guarantee. Let me know whatever ends up happening.

Also Shiidaji, send me a message on AIM about S:ME sometime, we need to get back to planning that game.

I'm somewhat hesitant to say yes to Mist modding, because she's mod flaked all of her games and the last time she modded a Survivor, she never got past the first challenge.

Whoops, I got the PM but I never responded to it, will do.

*shrug*
It's her responsibility and reputation at stake. Now wether or not she'd be able to gather enough interest after her history is another story, but it's her decision.

[Cheery Dog]

Australia is now west-US? (my location field does say my country)

[JDGA]

Tentative maybe-/in, depending on time and schedule. (Friday/Saturday US, unless you're planning to hold it in mid-September)

[Twistedspoon]

yeah, I'm UK too (although TBO is actually Netherlands but close enough)

[JDGA]

wait
TBO is Netherlands?

[izakthegoomba]

Hmm. How long is this thing likely to take?

A weekend would be best for me, but I'm away on the last weekend of August. Also, JDGA is Australian, right?

[JDGA]

[izakthegoomba]

Best answer ever.

[animorpherv1]

It was after 1 am. My bad.

I'd be willing to hold it in September if we can get enough people who say September may be better.

Last one took

was

a few hours. At least 5, but off the top of my head, I can't think of how long. The Jury Phase happened throughout several days.

[TheBadOne]

September would be pretty difficult for me, so I voted for august. What time do you think it will start?

[animorpherv1]

I could probably swing all of the dates. That said, I'm entering college in September, so who knows what's up then.

[animorpherv1]

BUMP

[KageLord]

Tentative /in depending on the exact date. A weekend in August should be good for me, in general.

[TheBadOne]

So 8 people want early August. I think we should start looking for a date early August. Any suggestions?

[kdowns]

I suggest the 8th... I am off for sure other than that I am really busy.

[animorpherv1]

Alright, by a 2:1 margin, Early August wins.

Now obviously, I can make any day, but if we do the 8th I need all interested parties to post if they can make it, because the mod (whoever that is) has to come up with stuff fast.

[TheBadOne]

I can't make that

[Shiidaji]

On vacation for a good week or so, have fun.

[izakthegoomba]

8th is probably ok for me, it just depends on the time.

[KageLord]

I'd rather it not be a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, but I can make it if that's when people decide (just not Monday morning or Friday afternoon for about an hour and a half each).
