You are not in the game unless you reply my PM with the role you picked.

Technically you are in EDT, not EST, so I'm still right.

Folks I just realized (thanks juliets!) some of you live in places with daylight saving time, which is not my case right now, so some of the time calculations I posted yesterday may have been wrong.

Either way, what you need to know is that the game is scheduled to start in 1 HOUR

4 people have replied. 4 more to go.

[mention]Quin[/mention] in did you ever get to contact your potassium rich friend?

I sent her the two roles just in case.

I have sent all the roles. You have until 7:15 PM UTC+0 to pick one.

Some information: I can't host the game if there are more than 80% or less than 40% civ/town roles.

In that case I'll have to draw them again. I promise I'll do it as fast as possible.

That is good for me.

The first 15-30 min are likely to be spent drawing the roles anyway.

Havent thought in advance yet, so we can discuss. I'm thinking of a game with no more than 4 hours. So maybe ~30 min for the day and ~5 min for the night?

I think tomorrow I'll send the role draws to all the maybes, if they pick one they are in.

Though it would be nice to know beforehand if people will play or not. I'm cancelling my Sunday movie session to host this game.

Maybe we should get an official Syndicate time or smh

7 PM UTC+0

7 - 5 = 2

So it's 2 PM in your time.

3 PM in UTC+0? Then yes.

2 PM EST
4 PM BRT (my time)
7 PM UTC+0

I'm using UTC+0 because it's the one timezone with a zero on it, so it's a simple math. I'm assuming you all know the number of the timezone you live...

Game will happen depending on how many confirmations I get.

Can you confirm whether you will play?

Ok so I asked the guys at Pokemon Showdown who play this game all the time and they said it works with 8 players.

I think we can get 8 players this time.

I'll be tagging everyone on Friday to remind you.

I also forgot to tag [mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention]

[mention]Quin[/mention] can you contact your banana friend? I dont think he comes here regularly.

Thanks!

Feel free to suggest different timeframes. I'm suggesting it early this time in an attempt to adapt to you guys.

If I get enough yays I'll also start reworking the setup to adapt to 6-10 players.

A tentative yes.

Can you confirm at least one day before? I might want to schedule something else for the same day if this doesn't work, so it would suck if everyone disappeared at the last minute.

No need to apologize, I was never going to do that sunday lol. I went to my counsin's wedding on the Saturday and spent the whole weekend traveling.

Guys, how about next Sunday, 7 PM UTC+0?

Werent you already in?

I'm not giving up. Thanks for your patience!

Forgot [mention]insertnamehere[/mention]

Sorry guys, I tried.

I'll try to cut down the setup so it can be ran with less people, and also I'll consider doing it early in the day next time. I think most of you prefer an earlier timeframe from what I've seen.

I'm still here in case everyone suddenly appears.

Damn

Ok lets see what we got.

[mention]Ricochet[/mention]

[mention]sprityo[/mention]

Are you in?

Give me 30 min if no new players I'll just start.

Epignosis wrote: ↑Sun Sep 03, 2017 4:45 pm What's the new proposed time for today?

As soon as I get 10 players or something close to that.

Welcome to the Syndicate! And thanks!

Gentlemen I'm in the middle of a Pokemon tournament which means I will take some time to reply when/if this gets sign ups. But dont worry, this game has priority.

Basically I'd have to delete 1/2 factions and a proportional number of civ roles.

I can try to rebelance the game and make a reduced version of it but unfortunately that can't be finished today. Too big and complicated a setup.

I'm not sure if I can host Greater Idea with less than 10 people tho. It's a 4 faction game

If anyone has a suggestion on how to get more people, I'm all ears. Honestly I'm wondering if I'm picking a bad time slot.

It is schedules to start in 15 minutes. Though I have more time myself is needed be.

Chances are we might have to delay again tho. We are 5 players short.

I need players asap or I'll have to postpone this again.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Sep 01, 2017 9:25 pm An hour? Even half an hour would work, since there's no guarantees I'd be alive at endgame.

An hour can be done.

Tomorrow

How much earlier?

4 more!

Sunday wins by 1-0 votes.

I'll host this game on Sunday, 9 PM UCT+0.

I'll send a PM to everyone soon to see if I can get more sign ups.

Also I'll host the game if it gets 10 players.

Not this weekend. Something came up and I'll have to travel to my parent's house.

Next weeked (2 or 3 September) is posssible tho.

I'll let you guys pick either of those I'll stick to it. This lack of certainity is probably hurting it.

Nice.

Tell your friends. Your family. Your worst enemy. I have hosted a game of GI on Naruto Forums and now I won't rest until I host one in the Syndicate too.
