playtimes and scenarios played

[Skellan]

I was wondering if people wanted to post the play times when they are available? And also the scenarios that they have played. This may highlight times when i can run scenarios for players, especially players who have missed out so far.It would be particularly easy to rerun scenarios I have already built. I can't promise anything, as really it depends when i am free, but it might show up some opportunities to run games.

We tried to do this on the yahoo site.. but it ended up with a bunch of relatively disjointed and useless info... perhaps if we ask for clearer info to start... we can take away better data.
I've seen game schedulers (like on pen and pencil) where where they listed out the days and folks checked off which hours in the day they were available...
Hmm... without that tool.. it would still be good to get that sort of info.
BF's Info.
Monday.. sometimes available to run and play in low tier (1-2) games from 5-10 Eastern Time.
Tuesday.. available to play and run in multi-tier games (1-5) from 4-12 Eastern.
Wedsday.. occasionally available to play or run tier 4-5 games from 5-11.
Thursday.. unavailable
Friday.. available to run and play in multi-tier games (1-5) from 4-12 Eastern.
Saturday.. available to run and play in multi-tier games (1-5) from 9am-12pm Eastern.
Sunday.. available to run and play in multi-tier games (1-5) from 1-5pm Eastern.

Is that useful data?

Thanks for that. Its better than a poke in the eye hehe. Its helpful as it gives me a general window to aim at
I guess it will always be difficult as peoples schedule change etc. I was just after getting a rough idea.
It would be nice to get some sort of scheduler but as you say, it may be difficult to get it working

My workplace uses Doodle to coordinate meeting times with representatives external to the organization.

Apparently there are free use options. I think you could just post the URL to the survey page in a post here.

A game scheduling function via this website would be nice, but you'll still get people who treat their attendance as optional and pull an NCNS.

Personally, my availability would be:

Monday: occasionally from 8 PM - 11 PM Eastern.
Tuesday: not available until January 2013 at the earliest.
Wednesday: not available with any regularity (GMing).
Thursday: not available until January 2013 at the earliest.
Friday: available from 8 PM onwards Eastern.
Saturday: available every 2nd week (more or less) from 8 PM onwards Eastern.
Sunday: not available.

Thanks John. I have noted your play times.
I think something like doodle is a good idea. It would be worth seeing what others think of this?

[damned]

you dont have to worry about 1802 to JOIN a game - only to host a game.

Is there a way to make a Pathfinder character without using the localhost server? I could buy heroforge is it?

Absolutely - I'm not sure where you're getting the recommendation to connect as an additional FG instance to create a character.

Refer to this thread here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...ad.php?t=16961

You don't *need* HeroLab or PCGen to create a character (but they are handy) - you can do it the good old way (manual) and input the character manually.

What type of Fantasy Grounds license do you have? Lite, Full, Ultimate or unlicensed?

[Gadreun]

I have a full license - i got the idea from watching the video tutorial link in FG downloads called "Creating a new character (4E example)"- i will read the thread - thankyou


haha i just stumbled across the PCGen and have d/l it so i think ill be good now - i must say im impressed and feel "at home" here everyone has been nothing but welcoming and kind and helpful its really appreciated!
