Dragon Fight and UHC update (Far too late, because Celeste is a bum)

[celestepastore]

 In all this Skype hullaballoo, it seems I've forgotten that THIS is still Salad's primary form of communication.

That being said, those of us in Skype were trying to schedule the Dragon fight and UHC, and the days were TODAY at approx. 6PM EDT for the dragon fight and SUNDAY for UHC (At maybe 2PM EDT?).

As I usually ask for, please tell me if you can make it to these dates and times, but please don't be afraid to request that we reschedule. I realize this post is very late and last minute, and I accept full responsibility for that. But I also know how eager everyone is for these events (I was rather eager myself, and I internalized all these conversations with you guys and entirely forgot that they needed to be external too), so I'll make sure these things happen in the next couple of weeks at least.

Once people start putting their names in for UHC I'll spin the metaphorical wheel and get the teams all randomized, whether it's Sunday or next week won't affect that.

Again, I'm really sorry this is so last minute. I'll try to be more on top of things in the future.

(TL;DR: Celeste dropped the ball. Whoops.)

EDIT: Kawa's proposed possible reschedulings, just to give others an idea of what else is being considered:

"Next week, maybe? Saturday afternoon for the Dragon, Sunday morning/afternoon for UHC? Or Monday/Wednesday but in the evening, like 8 PM or so. (Or afternoons Tuesday/Thursday, but that's probably horrible timing for most of you.) "

If I can drag my butt out of bed early enough tomorrow morning I can make the dragon fight.
For UHC, I'd love to come but sunday in american EDT is always a no-go for me except on holidays because school. Most of friday and saturday on most days are pretty free right now though for me.

[theropod]

I can try for both, no guarantee on the dragon but I'll try my hardest, I'm feeling tired and I've got the cold I think. Not the best thing to be in a skype call with. There shouldn't be anything stopping me from joining on sunday I don't think. That should be around 7pm for me I think.

[jack_unicorn]

I can't make it if it is at these dates. I'm at the wrong house and my computer here can't handle minecraft. So I would be really happy if we changed the dates, to maybe next week? And even if i could join today, it would be at 1am for me... and thats way to late.

[crazy_millbee]

Won't be able to play in the Uhc, Its at 7pm my time when the internet is probably at it's worst - Jad

[mewbladexxx]

I most likely will be able to make it for UHC, but I won't be able to make it for the Dragon Fight, I don't think. Perhaps later in the night...? Like a Fun Friday, 10 PM EDT...? Also, usually Saturdays are no goes for me becuase I have extra language school 'n stuff like that. :P I don't mind missing the Dragon Fight (rather not if it's possible) but I really want to be in UHC. :3

I think for us US EDT students, probably weekend nights would be best...? Next Week probably isn't good for me or Archeo because it's her birthday and we're having a 'girl's night out' sometime that weekend.

[voufreail]

Voo must check the calendar but school makes that hard. XD I'll edit this when I know. :)

Dragon fight: I can make if it's at 6... yeah that's fine. Question if we're fighting the dragon are we fighting the wither?

UHC: Yep I'm fine for this Sunday :)

EDIT: I can make it on the weekend at the time provided... I wouldn't be able to do it durning the week.

Friday and Saturday nights tend to be "hang out with my real life friends" nights, so it's no go for me on the dragon. (And I know to some degree you all waited for me to get back, too. Sorry!) UHC is /doable/, but I'm more than happy to move it.

Next week, maybe? Saturday afternoon for the Dragon, Sunday morning/afternoon for UHC? Or Monday/Wednesday but in the evening, like 8 PM or so. (Or afternoons Tuesday/Thursday, but that's probably horrible timing for most of you.)

I can't record/stream (don't have my external hard drive and not nearly enough space on my internal, less than ideal bandwidth for streaming and not enough screen real estate), but I'll be more than happy to commentate with someone who can record/stream in either event.

[jack_unicorn]

The weekend works best for me. Time zones destroys everything. But Saturday afternoon for the dragon and sunday morning for UHC. It could work for me at least.

[squidney87]

I don't think I could do next weekend. I can make it this weekend! Whenever we get actual times figured out, I'll let ya know what I can do.

[ficeny]

It'd be super great if the dragon fight was a bit later, just by a few hours... >.<

Also, I really want to attend this UHC seeing as I missed the last two but Saturdays and Sundays EDT are usually the worst time for me hnngh. :(

[mewbladexxx]

Agreed, agreed. I don't get home until around 7 and then I have a crapton of homework to do before then. XD

[dracanea]

Dragon Fight: Me and Jad never got word on which portal we were using, so we decided to go ahead and fix up mine. There's a base and everything set up. For times, I MAY be able to make the start, but I have an appointment thingy at 7 for my Mac's fan, and if they have to take it to fix it, I can't get on till I get it back. I'm willing to go with whatever the majority wants, and if it's pushed back to later tonight, I may be able to make it, idk if they will even need to take it in. Whatever the majority wants.

UHC: I'm in EST, for reference of times I will say. For Saturday this week, I have something at 5, so I'd only be able to make it if it was earlier than, idk, 2 pm for start? Probably even earlier. Sundays I can't get on till 1 or 2 pm, unless I wake up super early, in which I need to be done by 10 preferably. Next week Saturday would probably be best, but idk if I have something then. On weekdays, I'm normally able to get on if it's later in the day, except for Wednesdays which I'm usually busy from, like, 6 to 9 or 10. School gets out for me at 2:45, and I will be home anywhere from 3 to 5. So again, I'll say whatever works for the most people.

[elfowlgirl]

Rescheduling for me/Spunky is def. best, your proposed times seem good.

[bluetwilight]

I can't make it for the dragon fight if it's at 6PM EST, it's just a bad time of the day for me. I could make it an hour later or an hour earlier, but not 6.

UHC sounds good for me, I'm definitely in!

[single_malt_scotch]

Ahh, man I wish I could make it to both of these. I'm kinda caught up with the Mindcrack Marathon today so I won't go to the dragon fight. Plus a concert on Sunday(and all my homework) so i can't do UHC.

I see quite a few are going to make it for these events so I won't ask to reschedule but I do hope there is another UHC at some point that I can hopefully make! And I would also say to try and say these things in advance ^-^' I work better that way if I know what's going on ahead of time.

[yamina_chan]

Well, I missed the Dragonfight.
Having these events during the Mindcrack Charity Livestream is maybe not the best date XD'

I'll keep an eye out to when the UHC really starts, as that seems to be not quite set yet either. Before that I can't say anything about any possibilty of joining or not. Just a general heads up: If we stay in this timeslot but have it on a friday or suterday (not this weekend) I can probably make it, if it's an other day there's no chance. If the time is set at any later point in time, there's also no chance.
So I'll probably not be able to join in anyaway but we'll see Xb
Regardless, a not-so-last-minute-info would be nice ;)

I do hope there is some rescheduling, at least for UHC. I've never been in UHC and I have no clue how long it'd be till the next one so.

And if it is changed I also really hope it's a weekend/Friday later afternoon or Tuesday~

Whoops

— Miaou too tired to log in

[bookworm2692]

Well, I'm a bit late for this stuff. In future, because of the stupid time zones, I will generally be available at the following times:

(It's in EST, coz that's the current time zone in part of America, where most of you seem to be, which might explain why it looks weird)

Monday - 1-4am
Tuesday
Wednesday - 2-3am
Thursday
Friday - 4-6am, 4-6pm, maybe 6-9pm
Saturday - maybe 1-5am, 4-6pm, maybe 6-12pm
Sunday - maybe 12-5am

Personally, I think 4pm ish EST is best, (on a saturday) as it means that it's Saturday afternoon for the Americans, Saturday evening for the Europeans, and Sunday morning for Aussies/Kiwis. 4pm ish EST on Fridays would also work, for the same reasons

[antiloquist]

Sundays early in the day work for me. But Sundays later in the day don't; I'm part of the cast of Pak's dramatic reading of the Mardek Saga, and I need to be there on Mumble with him and everyone else.

Tuesdays I have class for six hours.

Thursdays are my day off from class.

[jellybeanninja]

I'm open for the Sunday UHC (and will hopefully be able to make it this time...)
