Station Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I've been playing around on Vassal for the last few weeks and have found that, despite the ability to flag on the server that you're looking for a game, it's not always easy to find someone to play. Similarly, you know you're going to want to play a game later but haven't pre-arranged one. To this end I thought it might be good to start a thread where people could put up that they're after a game and the time that they're looking to play, maybe the size of game and any specifics for that game. e.g. 'Thursday evening from 8pm GMT, 25ss, Any core encounter' or 'Sunday afternoon 1-4, GMT-8, 35ss, League game' note. as the forum clock is standardised to EST putting your timezone should lessen confusion from 'this evening' or 'Saturday morning' posts. LupusFerreus' thread with Skype details, Vassal handles and a handy timezone map can be found here and makes playing games online easier in my experience. Hopefully this will mean we can all get more games in and should help with the upcoming Vassal league organised by Tharen, signup for which can be found here ---------- Post added at 07:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 AM ---------- So to kick things off. I'm after a game later today. Tuesday evening from 7pm GMT, 35ss Edited January 15, 2013 by Station extra details added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mephiston Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Sorry to steal your thread but could we also agree on a twitter hash tag for organising games? #mfxvassal work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Sounds good to me. Any way to make it easier to find a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Figure I will use this thread instead of starting a new one. It's a slow(er) day at work and I have a couple hours I can play a game. Anyone up for a 35ss game on Vassal? Signing off Vassal and Skype for a while.

Ausplosions Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Saying "7 EST" doesn't help. It needs to be referenced to GMT. Australia (and i assume other countries) also have an EST. Maybe this thread could avoid using country-specific timezones.

Maybe this thread could avoid using country-specific timezones. Great point Ausplosions. In this case I know Joe was responding to my post where I had said I was available at 2pm EST US, so it was probably more clear before I edited my post.
