Anyone interested in figuring out a day every week where everyone who wants to can go online to find other fleetops players? Hopefully there will be enough people each time that that day becomes a fairly dependable day to find a game. Players can of course still set up their own games by pm and this forum, but it would be nice if there were a time span each week where you didn't have to worry about setting up a game before hand, you could just find people because people would be expecting to find you, see what I mean?

Well, first let's try to take an educated guess as to the maximum size our timespan could be (to easily cover people of different timezones) and have enough people playing during that time given the size of the community. The longer the timezone, the less likely you'll be to actually catch other players who are also looking, whereas the shorter the timezone, the more likely it will be some people will be unavailable during that time.
Once we figure out the length, we need to figure out if this will happen weekly, biweekly, etc., and exactly when each week/biweek it would start.

I am GMT -6.00 or Mountain time, currently it's 1:52pm. I'm available on Saturdays and Sundays (usually) from 12:00 -> 02:00. (But not this coming weekend...I'm graduating  ). Weekdays I am often busy, but I can make room anywhere from 16:00 -> 02:00 |

I thought about that today... how is it possible to find a time when it is sure you can go into the lobby and definitely find FO players. If we want to establish a stable online player base we have to make sure players come online on defined times. Maybe if others see us playing FO they'll also change on FO... time to bring some variety into A2 ^^
I'm there almost every night, from 19:00 GMT+1 till 22:00 (depends on when I have to wake up next mornings) The only thing why I gave up joining the lobby is because I never find others playing FO.

wel im more than happy to host anytime, i cant say im gonna be here at specific times like you because thats just crazy talk cuz i do have a life but at the same time im also around a lot of the time... but i cant leave FO running waiting and hoping someone si gonna coem hours among end, people seem to think playing on there own is fun when its not...
the problem is people post on here who wants a game, by the time someone replies that person is gone...
whatever happened the teamspeak thing?

Ye... I see that. I'll have a check on that, in the mean time use this one: IP-address: 217.172.177.10:8768 PW: No password needed (I think it got shut down because of under use  ) Posted on: May 26, 2008, 09:55:57 AM
We really need a single place / lobby with the ability for a qick check if someone's there... |

If anyone is up for a fight I will be hosting a game under the name (ProtoOmega) No password is needed. See you on the battle field!
It's up and i'll keep it up for a while. Just log into the Gamespy room!
It's 9:11PM Pacific Time I'll keep it up till 10:00 longer if someone logs on.
