------ meeting thread ------

Hi people,

is it possible that we have an irc meeting? I think we could benefit from it very much.

to irc, you need a client program such as you can get at www.mirc.com. The network we use is: undernet, and the channel: #ggs. I will be there from 21:30 GMT. I can stay later, but hardly sooner

oh, and everyone can come, lurkers, etc.

[VetLegion]

Uh, the date

I meant 12 November (Sunday).

[The Joker]

I'm not sure I'll be able to make it, but I'll try.

But still, let's make this our "official" meeting thread!

We should definately have some more meetings. And although having a meeting with everybody is pretty cool once in a while smaller meetings, with just a few people, would also be really great.

So here are the days next week where I will be able to attend a meeting:

- tuesday
- thursday
- friday
- sunday

(Of cause these days I am available now, but it's not certain that I will remain free all these days)

So let's see if we can gather some people for a little meeting (or more) next week.

Hmm. Ok, now that I think about it, I could come Fridays and Sundays from 1900 GMT ahead, though I don't like staying up very late. 2100 GMT starts already be late, its 2300 around here. But once in a while, it might be ok to stay up later, at least on Fridays. Monday mornings, I have to wake up 0600, so...

[VetLegion]

ok first meeting went fine. I am deffinitely for more of them. One a week or month when all of us could come would be excellent.

Ok, this is my situation:

Most days after 21:00 GMT. Internet becomes cheaper at that time here. But I could do it earlier too, just not as often.

I see amjayee ... sundays are a real problem for you if you get up that early. Then how about during the week? monday - thursday?

[heardie]

I'll try be there on day. On problem is the big time difference, the times you are talking about is at 9:30am for me, so I am at school on all weekdays, and on sat morning, i have sport so welll see how it goes.....but

7th Dec
I FINISH SCHOOL
for the year
sorry to shout but i cant wait!!

[heardie]

The first meeting:

It was just Vet, me and Chrispie (a potential GGS programmer!) there. And since none of us had really chatted together before it was mostly smalltalk, and general exchange of ideas for the game.

I think that when we arrange a meeting we should also decide what to do on that meeting, to make sure that not too much time is wasted.

And I also think that we should have smaller meetings.


Amjayee:

Ok, so should we have a meeting this sunday 1900 GMT?


Heardie:

Cool! So your schedule will become more flexible then?

I won't be able to make nay meetings since I don't have a computer. My only internet access is at school or at the public library and neither place has any IRC that I know of or whatever and they won't let us put it on there.

How will you make it if you never even try?

This Sunday 1900 should be nice, and I think I could be there for 2 hours. On weekdays, I could be there 1900-2100 GMT, but not much longer/later, since I have school. On Fridays I could stay longer, 2200-2300 GMT.

[heardie]

Thinking out aloud

my sport is cancelled this sat.

i may be available at 9am

I am 11 hours ahead

makes me available ~ 22:00GMT. Ill see whatt I can do

[The Joker]

Guildmaster:

Sad. I'm sorry about that.


Amjayee:

Sunday night at 1900 GMT it is then!

What should be the main issues there?

Ideas:

- Capital implementation and general supply issues in the econ model.

- pop model things - how to handle mortalities.

Anything else?


Heardie:

I can't this saturday, unfortunately.

But that shouldn't stop a meeting from happening!

I ll try to be there this sunday 19:00 GMT then.

Guildmaster:

It has completed one year and three months since I got a computer. It was not so long ago, so I know how you feel

There are web based services, which you can use to attend IRC chats. You may know of chat on apolyton site. I believe these chats are just java apps that redirect your input to irc server. If I knew java, I d write one to put on our web page. There are probably free ones available on web, so if someone has time ...

You may try to find a free service using keywords (of top of my head): +irc +chat +web +servers.

I think Saturday morning in Australia would be Friday evening in Europe, so I think heardie meant Friday 2200 GMT. I could try to be there, too. But not promising anything, it's midnight here.

About Sunday, I will do everything I can to be there. Those topics sounded good, generally the next version of the economy model might be a good topic. Also VetLegion and I are going to work with the UI, so something should perhaps be decided about it, too.

Oh yeah! How silly of me.

I should be able to be there tonight around 2200 GMT then. I can't promise it, but I'll try.
