Title: Allanaki RPT Saturday the 23rd, 7pm -EDT-
Post by: Case on April 20, 2011, 11:32:00 PM
This is late notice but - all those in Allanak with a warlike or gemmer bent are welcome to attend this RPT.

Meeting up will be done prior to 7pm EST and actual action will occur at the closest dawn. If you don't know what this is, find somebody who does.

If it's appropriate to do so and haven't done it already, put notice up on the IC boards, that'll inform a lot of people... or run around talking about it to anyone who'll listen.

If my trusty time converter is working, I should be able to make it too.

UTC -4 = EDT
It's not a big deal for folks living in the eastern time zone, but it makes a difference of an hour for people in different time zones (Europe and Australia).

I think what the OP meant is 7pm EDT, and the next IG dawn will be 8:10 (6:40 for the previous dawn).

If that's the case, I might be able to make the next dawn, but not the previous.

I meant UTC Eastern but I was in a rush. 7pm EDT is fine. I will change it.

Is this an insider RPT, or is it open to anyone in the area? I'm wondering because there doesn't appear to be information about it on the IC boards, or wasn't last I checked.

Whatever it is, I hope it's not going to last more than like an IC day - Game of Thrones is on at like 10:30pm eastern.

Damn you and you HBO, I'm jealous.

One can never tell how long an RPT will last, or for who it will be the shortest or longest experience.

If you haven't been notified IG, you probably won't know what's going on, though you could always ask around and see. I think the proper steps are probably being taken to include everyone who could be involved.

EDT= Eastern Daylight Time.

7pm

Decided to clarify before anyone tries to pull a fast one with technicalities.  My lawyer recommended it and who am I to argue with legal advice?

EST = UDT - 5.
EDT = UDT - 4

If you live somewhere that adheres to daylight savings on the east coast (most places?) than right now you're using EDT.  When daylight savings hits again, you'll be back to EST.

Wanted to make it, but I work.  :(

Good thing I didn't RSVP?

Bah... HBO was fucking with me - GoT new ep isn't on tonight... They're just reshowing the first ep... Must be on tomorrow night....

Camelot, however, is on Starz tonight.

EDIT: Or not... apparently they're showing all four episodes that've been aired so far, but not a new one... I hate new series...

It was a good thing I don't suffer from a fear of a certain type.

What my character might develop is another story, though.

It was fun.

That was super epic Armageddon.

Thanks to the staff for adding extra spice to it too.

I can't believe I managed to attend after being up all night (I just woke up now heh) but that was fun and all sorts of crazy. I enjoyed myself :)

That was the best part! Kudos to everyone there (and staff!), it was definitely worth the wait.
