is it me or does barely anyone use it? every time i go in i'm the only one there.

We have a chatroom?

HA....yeah, we do, it's in the links up above

Chatrooms are still a thing?

I use it but I tend to have the same problem- My timezone is such that I'm in the room when most of the meme would be asleep or in the middle of their day.

Keep trying anon! Surely we can get more people into it. =)

Would it make sense to set up a fixed time for a regular get-together? I sometimes check the chat, but I've never actually found anyone there to talk to.

that idea would be pretty awesome! of course i think it should probably be on a friday or saturday, though.

So I did some basic maths. 3 pm US Central time is approximately 9 pm the same day in central Europe and 7 am the next day on the east coast of Australia, which is just about the only reasonable time for these three areas. I tried looking for the poll results link but a brief search failed.

So.
1. Are there any other time zones that I should be considering?
2. How does a US Saturday next week (18th Jul) meet-up at the times above sound as a start?
(3. Does anyone have the link to the poll results?)

Sounds good. I might be panicking about starting my new job that week though.

sounds good by me!

Sounds okay to me. 7am is sooo early but for fandom I'll try to manage.

So, 3 pm Central is 4 pm Eastern right?

Oooh exciting! Let's do it!!

I'm in central Europe, but, yes, 9pm generally works for me. Can't promise I'llI'll be there every week, but I'll try to drop in when I can.

OP of times:
My maths was a bit rushed and I may have made a slight mistake and forgotten about Summer/Daylight Saving. So Europe will have to stay up a bit later (I believe it is around 11 pm?)

In the future it may be more convenient to have two times as EU and AUS are not fun to co-ordinate.

3pm Central US time is 10pm Central European Time. That's okay with me too, though for some it might be a bit late.

down for it!

(uh. just to confirm: 3PM US Central is 2PM US Pacific, right?)

Isn't Pacific -2 hours from Central? Hence 4PM ET, 3PM Central, 1PM Pacific.

So that was kind of a success? It was awesome hanging out with you guys!

For next week, we might try something a little different.

As a general meeting time, we'll start at 6 PM UTC/GMT+0 on Sat (25th Jul) and go for 6 hours (check out this page to find out what time it is for you http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=dd+chatroom+meeting+time+&iso=20150725T18&p1=1440&ah=6)

6 hours is a long time, and I'm sure as hell not going to be there from 4 am my time, so if you're not there when it starts but still want to join in the fun, I propose a second meeting time halfway through (9 PM UTC/GMT+0), so there's a guarantee that there'll still be people in there about halfway through, who'll probably stick it out to the end of the 6 hours.

Hopefully that'll mean more people are able to get in when there are people!

WHAT? what do you mean we already had a scheduled chat? I thought that was happening tomorrow?

That works for me!

I had tons of fun with you guys. Thanks for hanging out! I'll try to be there next week, but this time I can't stay until 2 am. I am sooooo jet-lagged today. :-P

Sounds great! Hopefully will be able to hang out for more than ten minutes this time haha

Which chatroom will we be using? I just went to the thread about it and there seems to be a couple of different options?

(DA) Those are all different options for connecting to the same chatroom. There is only one place but they've given us different options; so the more chatroom savvy can get in how they like and those of us who aren't so savvy can get in easily enough and not be excluded. =)
