Title: Poll: Add a second planned developmental testing game per week
Post by: khalsa on July 06, 2009, 05:04:00 am: Currently there is one dev testing game (that generally lasts a good 3-6 hours) per week. (Info Here if you don't know allready (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=8622.0)) Suggestion has come up that we add a second one (probably on Wednesday) while people are still on holiday.

Please respond yes/no if you would be able to attend a Wednesday game. Or reply with a different suggested day.

Thanks!

Khalsa

A wide range of other joys awaits for the living at a saturday night.

By the way Khalsa, your news page link is borked.

Post by: Knowitall66 on July 06, 2009, 09:15:37 am: Depends on the time, problem for me with the other one is that it starts at like 3 AM my time. (My timezone; UTC/GMT +8 hours AKA 'WST') So if it could be held at a different time then different people could participate. (I also get around 250-300 ping, but cant fix that :P)

Post by: Ryanw4390 on July 06, 2009, 11:13:15 am: Yeah it would be great to have a second day because most of the time I can't make it Saturdays. If its a Wednesday you can count me in :)

Means you are not giving a yes/no answer, but you will post a reply in this thread instead.

You could try it a few times and based on the level of activity make the decision. Actions speak louder than words and all that.

Post by: {7}wrath on July 07, 2009, 05:43:17 am: You should probably make the wednesday game a different time, because 20:00 gmt is midnight for some people.
Title: Re: Poll: Add a second planned developmental testing game per week
Post by: Overdose on July 08, 2009, 06:36:36 am: Any time will be midnight for someone. At least at that time it's not too late at night for people on the East side of the Atlantic and not too early for the people in the West.

Post by: {7}wrath on July 09, 2009, 02:04:54 am: I suppose so, but if we have two games at different times, at everybody will be able to attend at least one, amirite?

Post by: borsuk on July 09, 2009, 05:46:48 pm: I think this poll would've been more useful if it was phrased differently. Possible choices could be:

- I can attend on wednesdays
- I can attend on saturdays
- I can attend both
- I can attend neither

The Saturday days have been succesful so far, so it would be pointless to see who can/can't attend those, they wouldn't go anywhere regardless. It's most likely easier for the devs to do wednesday as the extra day, so they want to see if there is enough support and ability to participate in a second weekly match on wednesday or if they'd be wasting their time.

It seems like most people wants to have another dev game. I think *someone* should start new poll about when (=GMT hour) should it start.
