Chat 8 planning - c 2300GMT/1900EDT Friday

[Makahlua]

Some time this weekend, but don't lookat me, I'll be AFK mostly I will try to drop in if I can, but this one is up to the Veep to schedule

[ormuzd]

So, Godking should it be

[GodKing]

Actually, look to Kloreep. If he cannot do so (and I will check in on sat to see) I can. But if I do it will most likely be at a time that most people here in the US will not appreciate

[Kloreep]

I'm available saturday afternoon and sunday evening US time. Saturday up till 2200 GMT, sunday after 0000 GMT Monday.

I propose a chat on Saturday starting at 1800 GMT (1400 EDT, 1300 CDT, 1100 PST). Ministers, please respond to this ASAP so we can know if that will work. If that's too early for someone (I can understand if you don't want to wake up at 6:00 MWIA ), we could move it up to 1900 GMT or 2000 GMT (2100 would cut me down to a max of about 1 hour, so that's out I'm afraid). If that isn't possible, a starting time from 0000 to 0200 Monday GMT (Sunday evening in the US) would be good for a sunday chat; it would be better to lean to the early side there for the east coasters.

Again, ministers please reply soon so we can sort this out.

Actually most times on Saturday are good. Maybe we could do 22 G.M.T for MWIA?

[MrWhereItsAt]

That could be possible, NM. Kloreep mentioned 2000GMT to me in chat as a time he could only JUST make - that is 8am here. I MAY be able to do either of them, but no promises as I am off to a friend's 21st tonight and I, well, there is this nice Swedish girl, see.

Stop laughing at me. You never know...

[Kloreep]

The chat will be 2000 GMT Saturday then.

I guess I shouldn't hope you make it MWIA.

[Tassadar500]

@ MWIA

[ormuzd]

these times are good for me. I'll try to join but we need to set the exact time

[Kloreep]

I think we'll be out a FAM regardless of MWIA's luck; there's ISDG business at 2000 GMT. Since we don't have a SMC either, I think this will be a short chat.

However, I do still want to hold at least a brief chat, and perhaps we can pick up again on sunday too if we don't get far today and the ministers are up for it.

[Kloreep]

It's 2005 GMT, and me, Nuclear Master, and orzmud are the only ones in the chat. Actually, NM seems to be AFK; and orzmud just logged off, as I have cancelled the chat.

So, we need a new time. How does 0030 GMT Monday (sunday evening in america) sound?

[GodKing]

Sorry, too much beer and soon to be leaving with a very pretty lady who of course is watching all I am typing and wondering why me leaving a message for you all was so important... (good thing she is driving ). If nobody else is available, I will be glad to help out as SMC.

GK (and friend)

[MrWhereItsAt]

0030.... perhaps for a time, but that is smack in the middle of a workday, and I have a lot to do after taking some ill-advised days off last week. My orders so far have been posted, however.

[Kloreep]

Sorry to do this again, but I think I have to call off this chat. I need to get some stuff done today, and I'm busy with a tennis match this afternoon.

[Kloreep]

Let's try this again. How about 0100 GMT Friday? (Remember, america subtracts, so this is Thursday evening for americans.)

I'm afraid this weekend is up in the air for me. I'm going to an out-of-town tennis tournament, so I likely won't be here saturday and may not be here sunday either.
