Soooo...sticking with Friday as day 1 and Saturday as day 2, even without the rest of the con structure around it?

Couldn't slide that to...Saturday as day 1 and Sunday as day 2?

Well the theory is that people had Thursday / Friday / Saturday off for the con already.

Well...I don't hate the idea of taking time off for it, even without the con involved.

Time off is...ummm...pretty easy to get right now. Chalk me up as interested, although non-committed. Have to see how things look by the end of the month to be sure...

With all the craziness going on I’ve been asked to work extra shifts, so unfortunately I can’t participate since I already told them the trip was canceled 😕

Heyyyyyy those shifts got sent to someone else so as of right now I should be able to participate, pending further reassignment 🤣

Who do I need to talk to about that?

Very interested, will have to learn to play on Vassal.

In theory. Any chance for Saturday only players?

I mean, I can figure out a way to get you guys playing one way or another.

You might not be in the running with 0 points through 3 rounds, but... uh... you'll be playing.

LET'EM PLAY REF, JUST LET'EM PLAY

I'm defo very intreested!

Beyond the tutorials and tips the mod comes with on Vassal any other good resources to use to get up to speed on it? Ideally anyone fancy playing a teaching game?

Nothing beats actual experience, but this playlist is great.

That being said, if it's your first time with Vassal I doubt you'll get your games finished under the three hour time limit. Just speaking from my own experience.

Thanks for this.

I've found a few other Vassal noobs and we're gonna try get up to speed over coming week.

I've been mobilising Europe

Sato will ride again!

If Australia goes into full lock down I will join as well - never mind the Timezone! Full speed ahead!

DO IT.

Well, it's been well over a year since I've played on vassal, but why not

And we are in stage one lockdown so my calendar just cleared up nicely.

Add me to the insanity.

I wanna do this so bad. Let me check with the wife since we're all locked at home together.

If we're going to do it real-time, we're definitely going to need some kind of digital form for submitting scores and posting pairings. I don't think relying on forum or chat posts is going to be workable to get the needed turnaround...

Awwww, I canceled my vacation days and will probably be working. 😞

Now that I’m “working” from home, definitely interested!
