Due to the firing of an unreliable part-time employee in my department, we no longer have a person covering saturdays. Nothing is certain yet, and if I do start working saturdays, I would get a weekday off in exchange. The question is, if circumstances prevent me from running D&D on friday nights, when would each of you be available?

It can't run late if it's going to be on weekdays. I have classes and a job, basically, so that won't work. Also, Tuesdays won't work at all for me.

It'd really help to have time blocks. Put the days and times (US Eastern time preferred) that you can play. Include all times, whether or not you believe other people (including me) could play at those times. Telling me the times you can't play doesn't help, unless you can play at any time, day or night, which isn't specifically mentioned.

Probably somewhere from your 12am to 6am on wednesdays or mondays (of my perspective of wednesdays or mondays.) Or any time on the weekend, from my perspective.

I can't play Mondays, Tuesdays, or Thursdays...Fridays won't always work anyway, because I have to attend football games (I'm in the band, heh.) Besides that...Basically, I'm free most friday nights, saturday after 12, sunday before 5:30. Weeknights would have to end around 10 or 11, and couldn't start before 3:30. It's not a flexible set of times, but I'm busy this year.

I can't play on Tuesdays or Wednesdays at all. I can't be up past 11 no matter what on weekdays, due to morning classes/work.

So... I'm free after 2:30 on Mondays, but will have a break of around an hour in there at 4ish. After that, available until 11. (Remember, these are CST.)

Can't do anything on Tuesday.

Can't do anything on Wednesday.

Thursday, free after 2:30 and available until 11.

Friday, obvious. Free at night.

And there you go.

Wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't, oy. Okay, let's see what we've got.

Ukko and Taylen are essentially flexible. Pved is, for all intents and purposes, friday morning through saturday night, as I don't plan to start the game at midnight on a weekday. Drakkenmaw is 6:30-midnight on Mondays, or 3:30-midnight on Thursdays, or 3:30 (you didn't say) and later on Fridays, with no weekends. Reyolen could play wednesday 3:30 (central?) to 11PM on Wednesdays and most Fridays, or saturdays starting at noon.

The biggest problem here is that Pved and Reyolen are essentially the polar opposite of Drakkenmaw, with the exception of Fridays. So, here's another scenario. If I took Fridays off on the weeks when I work Saturdays, I could schedule the game to start and end three hours earlier. That's a start time of 5PM and an end time between 10PM and 11PM, US Eastern time. Who could, or couldn't, attend for the entire duration?

I could do that, unless there's a football game...at which time I would miss the whole thing. I can give you a schedule of all the games I have to perform in...hold on.

Sept 17, Sept 22 (might) be taken away...anything after that...I'm not sure, but I know I miss at least 2 Fridays in October.

Alright, schedule is locked in, at least for the time being. I know this is going to be a stretch for some of you, but unless my department finds someone to work Saturdays on a permanent basis, it's the best we've got.

Next session is this Friday, September 10th, at 5PM Eastern time. If you want to figure out how that compares to other times, check the timestamp of this post against the current time here. It is now 10AM on Monday, September 6th.

The session had its ups and downs; I'd say it went pretty well considering who showed up, and when. Sorry to hear about the power failure Pved, this just hasn't been your weekend.

It seems like most of you need to struggle for the 5 o'clock time. If it'll work better for everyone, I can move the start time to 6PM instead of 5PM, but games will still need to end around 10PM, so that I can wrap everything up and get enough sleep before work on Saturdays. Let me know if youall would rather have the later start time (6PM-10PM US ET) or the longer session (5PM-10PM US ET).

On a related note, I won't be able to run two weeks from now. Yom Kippur starts that Friday night, which means family time Friday evening and much of Saturday. I can't rotate schedules with Kat, because there's too much going on in the weeks before and afterward. So the next game, at whatever time everyone agrees to, will be in four weeks.

While I would prefer the longer game sessions, I think the later start time would probably be the best for me. I can make it at the earlier time, but it's a serious rush even if I leave work an hour and a half early.

Sorry about being late...I completely forgot the new time. As for moving it from 5 to 6 (which would be 5 to me), I'm all for that. Gives me more time to get after school stuff finished. Seems like 4 hours should be enough most of the time.

Next session will be this coming Friday, November 5th, at 6PM US Eastern time.

Remember, most of the US has just rolled back their clocks an hour. If your area doesn't change its clocks, or didn't last weekend, the game will start an hour later. If your region turned its clocks forward over the weekend, the game will start two hours later. If you're not sure, err on the side of caution, and show up early/on-time, rather than late/on-time.
