Gentlemen, Synchronize Your Watches.
Posted: Fri May 11, 2012 12:39 amGentilemen,
A number of [N] Officers and fine Rabble Gentlemen have discussed setting a time for games during the slower weekdays to aid in game times and convenience with schedules. These times are not mandatory by any means but a suggestion we might try that may improve participation during the slow nights. Should you wish to take part in this experiment the consensus is as follows:
1) On The hour:
We wait until the top of the hour before starting a game. Knowing this players can now go about their real life business and time other games and activities to arrive on the hour. Also players who have limited time can check in a few minutes before the hour to see if a game is available.
2) The Fullin Hour:
(Named after the famous General's idea)
The following time, Monday through Friday, has been set based on player participation throughout the Western Hemisphere as the primary hour to meet:
11 PM New York, 10 PM Chicago, 9 PM Denver, 8 PM Los Angeles, 4 AM London, 5 AM Paris, 1 PM Sydney, 8:30 AM Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte, and 12 AM Buenos Aries
...or...
23:00 New York, 22:00 Chicago, 21:00 Denver, 20:00 Los Angeles, 04:00 London, 05:00 Paris, 13:00 Sydney, 08:30 Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte and 00:00 Buenos Aries
Should your time be limited you may wish to schedule your gaming to the Fullin Hour as this should be the single best hour to check in.
The Old World Hour: Should this experiment help us with games I suggest the other half of the world adopt it and schedule a prime time to check in.
