For that group that's stuck

Post by paazin »

You know who you are.

Let me know what times you're available so we can try to run some things when we're all on at once.

I can do most EST evenings. Advance notice is helpful.

What would be more useful is actually giving some vague idea of availability of time of day/hours. That way we can synchronize up a bit better.

Yes of course.

Before I do just that, I would like to commend the BG DMs, Paazin and Ronan especially in this case, for Bu's current situation, and even more specifically, Paazin this morning, for what I must say was quite possibly one of the most exciting and entertaining DM sessions i've ever been so lucky to be a part of in over 6 years playing ALFA1 and ALFA2, and that's saying alot because ALFA1 was quite epic for me. This morning I literally LOL'd at him, and myself at least 3 times uncontrollably, and caught myself laughing so hard twice that tears came out for real. What a great day I had because of it as well, keep up the great work all you DMs.

Now to answer your noble request:

I am GMT +7 (Bangkok, Thailand).

My playtimes below are in my time zone:

Monday-Friday 3:00AM - 5:00AM *

Saturday-Sunday 3/4/5:00AM - 9/10/11:00AM **

*Yes. I set my alarm on weekdays for 2:30AM... and play ALFA for 2 hours, every morning before I go to work. This has always been the best way to even have a chance at hitting any DM action, and also the best times I can find to meet up with other players' playtimes.

**Yes. I set my alarm on the weekend to also get up sometime before 5:00AM to play ALFA for at minimum 4 hours, to a maximum of a possible 8 hours both Saturday and Sunday. Same reasons as above, and my best chance to possibly hit any recurring DM'd session or weekly routine.

Other playtimes are completely random, whenever the wife and daughter are occupied and I can login for any amount of time other than the above solid playtimes which can be garanteed. After work on weekdays (my timezone times: 4:30PM-5:30PM) I can often login for an hour to see who's on, run a static maybe if there's any available or RP with any other PCs in Bu's vicinity.

Granted some days i just stay in bed, especially on weekdays, but only a giant alien robot invading Bangkok, the loss of Earth's gravity, or nuclear war could stop me from playing ALFA on the weekend at the quasi set times above.

Thanks again so much.


When Paazin is DM'ing next there won't be anything that can stop me from casting "Speak with Plants" anytime Bu is near any giant mushrooms....

Cheers.

So it would seem EST Friday or Saturday nights are about the only times on account of Bu, but Im sure they are not the best for the rest of us. If I had to choose, I would choose Saturday night as there is no hunting for me on Sunday mornings (I totally slept in this past Saturday morn on account of our late night extravaganza :mrgreen: :coffee: ), but I will do Friday if it comes down to it; however, I can tell you that either way I am only good for 2/4, 3/4 tops, Fri or Sat/month as I can already think of a few in the next month or so where I will certainly be unavailable. Of course, if I cant play thats no reason you all shouldnt.

I didn't even realize/expect our little situation to be a weekly event. I'm happy it is, but I am absollutely never expecting it. So, if another time is better, the LAST thing I ever wish to convey is any kind of demand or expectation that i'm to be DM'd. In fact, I see Bu's presence as least in priority based upon my late arrival. Finally, as you all can see above, at first request by Paazin for "our play times", I didn't even respond as he wished... and he had to ask me a second time. So, to comply with his request, I entered my entire possible weekly play times... again, with NO demands (of course) or even no expectations.

I'm here to play with whoever is around, and like 90% of Bu's existence, i'm also here to play when no one is around since for the past 16 months, there usually isn't. :)

yay team stuck!
