People had decided on monday when I was outside (nobody bothered to ask me how I felt about a change of the day), when I came in and said "so were go for next tuesday right?" I got "well no, Christian has a problem with Tuesdays now" I got a bit miffed because my boss wanted me to work that Tuesday but I turned her down saying I already had plans, but agreed to work monday for her instead! Brett said he would keep it on tuesday because thats what we agreed to origionally.
Tuesday is really the only day that works well for me week in-week out.. monday is a little better than any other day, but I will play on any day (but would have to leave early wed-sun, and will generally be tired for not being able to adjust my sleep schedule before the game)
I'm willing to do whatever as long as we game, but unless theres a pressing reason why Tuesdays are bad (or a specific reason why a single tuesday is bad) I'd really prefer we keep our gaming on Tuesday nights. I'm trying to get my schedule changed to having fridays and saturdays off but so far (*over the last 3 years) I havent convinced my manager that it's really all that necessary.
Going into this, I've always said that we were going to have to play around Jason and Mel's schedules. They work crazy adjustable 12-hour shifts and that has to take precedence.
I always try to make as many of the players happy as much as possible, but sometimes someone will have to miss a session here or there. We've forged ahead without other players before and everything was fine.
In this instance, no decision was really made as there was no agreement made by everyone. After Christian and Roy dashed out (understandable because we played late), Jason and Rich stated that Monday was no good for them. So it was 2 to 1. So I just stuck with what had already been discussed and put on the calendar.
So here's what I've been able to ascertain as far as what days are good for people:
Christian: Wednesday & Thursday? (I think you've said on separate occasions that every other day is bad) Rich: Tuesday & maybe Monday Roy: Any, barring unusual circumstances Jason: Changes every week Mel: Changes every week Me: See Mel
I will continue to use the calendar here, so always refer to it ahead of time and let me know ASAP what days work for you or if you won't be able to make it, etc.
Most days actually are good for me. But now that I think about it, i am going to have soccer I think on Mondays and Wednesdays coming soon so I wont be available on those days.
I thought everyone said they were ok with Monday when we left last time, but if not its all good.
wow, were gaming on all those days?!?! seems like a bit of overkill dosent it? (lol j/k)
ok so looking at the callendar, assuming we want to keep the gaming to about once a week, my best days would be the 2nd, 9th, 15th, 21st, and 27th, again... that seems about the best spread and closest we could come to once a week... it also keeps me on a few mondays so at least I dont have to leave early and stress about being late to work.
side note no.1: if we wanted to game say, two days in a row (like on the first and second... I have those days off) I would be cool with that (but I assume some of you have other commitments or spouses who might have a problem with that.)
side note no.2: I know we havent really hung out much outside of the game, but "the Watchmen" comes out on the 3rd... any of you interested in catching the movie together on that day?
Cool. So I'm going to say we are playing Monday the 2nd, and Monday the 9th. Hopefully Jason can make it, I haven't heard anything from him yet. Once I get his preferences for the month I'll figure out the rest.
I realized after everyone left last night that there is a UFC card on Saturday night, the 7th. I'll go ahead and play if we are only down one player, but there is no pressure for those who'd rather not play that night. We can just put it off until the 13th.
