Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
I can do it on the 24th, Friday, so long as we start no later than 6:30. So I put in as a yes.

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
I'll go ahead and say IN if it helps get this thing off the ground.
It'll be tight for me time-wise, but I can probably swing it. I've only played in one turbo game before online and I was absolutely terrible.

Cool. I'm gonna get the role list put up on the first page (hopefully) today. It'll change up depending on the amount of sign ups, but I'm capping it at 13.

Roles have been added with the assumption of 13 players, but I'll probably just chop some vanillas out if we don't get there. I'm also gonna send a mass PM out later.

One day I'll find time for a burglary. This is not that time, though. Too much house moving madness.

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
I'm going to add more flavor with host posts rather than flavor the roles. That'll mean the roles don't make any sense to most people but that's part of the fun, I guess.
linki: All good, Golden. Just make sure you have Chinese food for dinner instead.

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
One more thing: It was mentioned in the Chatzy last week, but people were tossing around the idea of turning the Chatzy into the spectator chat for the duration of the game. We can either do that (which means that if you play, you won't be able to join the Chatzy until it's over or you're dead) or I can just make a separate room. I can see benefits to both, but let me know.

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
Either way is fine with me. Those of us who are playing won't have time to go to the chatzy until we are out of the game so you can use it as the spectator chat if you want.

2 would give us 9, in which case I can cut some vanillas and still have an even ratio, so that's a minimum.MovingPictures07 wrote:How many more folks do we need?

Where the hell is Rico? I sure hope we have enough people to play, I'm getting worried.
If we cant play Quin you'll have to make this into a Side Mission and put it in the queue.

You'll probably end up waiting over a year for it in that case. I'd sooner just delay it another week but if we can just get 2 more sign-ups this is ready to go.juliets wrote:Where the hell is Rico? I sure hope we have enough people to play, I'm getting worried.

With the other burglary games it all came together at the last possible minute.

Quin, you might want to try and line up Rico as an alternate in case someone can't play at the last minute.

EST: 5:30pm
PST: 2:30pm
AEST: 7:30am

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
I was on a bad team once where I was in US Mountain, we had someone in Australia, some one in either the UK or the Netherlands, I can't recall, and one east coast USA, and we were never all online at the same time. Max, two of us at once. Time zones iz confusing.

Re: A Game About Chinese Food [SIGN-UPS]
Now looking at a time conversion website, I'm being told my conversions are 1 hours off. It might be because of DST and google just hasn't updated it, or maybe it's the other way around. I can easily bump it an hour if I need to, but can people in EST timezones tell me if I need to change things?

Ok, you are not on Brisbane time then. They are UTC +10 and you are UTC +11. Anyway, 4:30 pm EDT is too early to start the game - people won't be home from work yet. As it is even starting at 5:30 EDT llama said he will be a little late.Quin wrote:https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ ... t&p2=tz_et

There is a chance I can do this. The university requirements don't prohibit me from using electronic devices during testing. I read the guidelines thoroughly.
Hell, they don't even require me to be in the same room as the guy taking the test. I'm not sure what the point of me being there is, but okay.
No guarantees.
