What day and time we play isn't that important, but 1500 CET and onwards are fine with me. I would rather play on sundays, but I can play on saturdays aswell.

OK folks,
The next session will be our last Sunday game. After this weekend we'll most definitely have to move to Saturday. I see alot of folks putting up times. cheech and Sterk post the hours when you can play. I know you put 2300 Sterk, is that the earliest you could play on Saturdays?
Anywho, Blackeye is in the same boat and can't play on Sunday any longer either. He's back from Idaho or Indiana or where ever he went. So Blackeye will be here for our regular Sunday game. Think about what works for you and we can discuss it more on Sunday.
We should have no problems with the game at least on my end. My ISP assures me that all is well. I have 5.62 Mbps down and 767 kbps up. See ya'll there. Oh and everyone needs to dl the save and place in your save folder so we can jump right into the game with no delay.

It seems that I will get PA (Parantal Abduction) tomorrow. They want to go and visit my brother. I will try to convince my parents to not overstay, so I will mearly be late, but hopefully be in time.
Yes, 2300 EST is the earliest I can play, in fact more like 2315. If we move the time to anything earlier than that on Saturday, I will have to quit. Quite frankly, switching the time in the middle of the game (if it means some players have to leave because of the switch) is unfair.
yeah seems unfair to me to sterk. I may be able to play some saturdays but im usually doing other things. Ah well.
Well, we are playing this game for 6 months now - and things can change.
Allthough I will probably miss a lot of sessions too if we play on saturday.

The next 2 weeks I can't play Saturday mornings EST. After that however, I can play pretty much anytime on Saturday except for the time between 1900 EST-2300 EST.
Weekly Game Update
We played at Slow for most of the game with 7 players. We played from September 21 1290 to October 21 1295. Newest game MAP is up. I’ve purged and zipped the most recent game save which can be downloaded from here.
The players this session:
We had 7 game stops. I’ll list the causes for each stop:
Again frustration with game stops. Please if we have to restart I know it’s tiresome but please do not leave or TAB to do anything until we are in game. Once in game and things are running if you are AFK the rest of us wont be affected.
As far as moving the game to Saturday I know that the move will negatively affect some players and I apologize for that. But, I am not the only player and don’t decide the fate of the game. If the rest of you wish to continue without me on Sunday then by all means do so. You have the most recent save and I’m sure one of you is more than capable of hosting. I didn’t want to change the day of the game and will understand if the rest do not want to move.

RP is getting up at 5 AM. Also, this could just be temporary, but I believe right now we have to switch to this time or we will lose at least 2 players.
Frankly, at that time I won't miss more sessions, though it sure as hell doesn't make things terribly easier on me as it was Sunday mornings that were getting tough to fit in... But hey, we do what we gotta...

As far as I know 1500CET is the new time, but I'd play on 0500 once or twice. Playing 0700 CET would be fine by me permanently on sunday. My aging pets won't let me sleep much longer anyways.
I also seem to have made quite a mistake yesterday - I had some mercenaries for a while during peace and had put my militairy spending to zero. I never put it back up. So my 350K soldiers held out for 2 years against over 800K without ever getting payed for it.
If the 3 against 1 bashing didn't calll for a rematch, this certainly does.
I am a little confused. You seem to have negotiated a new playing time ingame yesterday; this Saturday time is just temporary? I am sorry to say it, but if we would lose two players moving to Saturday, and just one by keeping it on Sunday, then Sunday is the lesser of the evils, though I really don't want to lose as faithful a player as Trav.
Both Blackeye and Trav can't play on Sunday anymore.
It seems we will loose 2 players whichever time we choose.

I say we go with the ole democratic vote, but lets spice it up with some good downhome cooking...
Vote: I choose Saturday.. **loads and cocks the shotgun**

Oh yes, I forgot about Blackeye - which shows the benefits of opening your mouth once in a while. It's the squeaky wheel as gets the grease.
I really, really dislike the thought of losing two players, whichever two it is. Trav, is there any chance that this situation with your Sundays will blow over and you'll be able to play again at the usual time?

Well, I choose Saturday 2300 EST (Sunday 0500 CET), but there is another option. If it's at 1500 CET I can play starting the 5th of November, but not until then.
