Test concluded, thanks to everyone who participated.

It's late March and spring is here (or fall for the down under), so how bout we organise a test for this coming weekend on March 25th 26th or 27th? Just like the first two multiplayer tests, you can show interest by posting a reply here, or sending me a PM. Perhaps if enough non-euros are interested, we can look for a time that's more suitable for other regions.

Last two times we got a pretty large turnout which easily filled a game with 12 players for a few hours. This time, I would like to arrange multiple hosts to be able to run multiple games at the same time so we can do more than just dogfighting. Many of the missions have a maximum of 8 players, and some have a maximum of 4.

If you are interested, please include the time you would prefer to have the test take place. If you have any other questions with what you need to get BP:Multi up and running, or anything else just ask. I'll update the list as needed.

17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

Unless something comes up, I can probably make it regardless of which day you pick. Good week for me this time :)

100% in. Haven't got any preferred times, seeing as how I'm one of those evil, demented Euros. :)

I was actually thinking of Saturday morning March 26th at 1:00PM GMT. That's 8:00AM North American Eastern time. Would that encourage anyone from the FAR east to join? Kind of an early start for the Americans, but I'll do it.

Anyone interested who does not like that time?

Use this map to determine your time with respect to GMT.

It might work, depending on how long the games lasts. Might sleep through the whole thing. I can't have it too late either 'cause I have to take a Greyhound back to school that day. I'll set an alarm.

1:00 PM GMT is...6:00AM my time.

There's no chance in hell I can wake up that early D:
(And even if I could I'd play like I was stoned)

1 P.M. GMT would be 5 A.M. my time.  There's no way I could make that.

I don't think there's any need to have sleepy yanks. Move it to 19:00 GMT, it's a convenient time for the Euros and it works out as roughly the same time for US as it was going to be for Europe in the first place.

Yes, I think that 1:00 pm GMT might not work. But 19:00 GMT soundz good.

I wanted to give a chance for the Australian and East Asian gamers to participate in the test since both previous tests have been at unusual times for that region, but since there has been more opposition than approval of the time, I no longer think it's a workable one.

Saturday March 26th 19:00 GMT is 2:00PM Northamerican Eastern time. Would you all prefer this time then?

11 A.M. my time for Saturday or Sunday can be done, but not for this Friday as I have a doctor's appointment at 11:30.
