    I need to get a feel for how many people are interested in planned games, randomly announcing a game every so often is harder on everybody than knowing a set schedule that we follow every week.

    You may miss the game announcement or not be able to bend your plans to accommodate the game time.

    In knowing the day of the week the most people are interested in playing, everybody can then try to make plans to make it to our official NBR games.

    I plan to have everybody try to get together just 1 time a week in a 3 or 4 hour chunk. The server is always open and you can always play but its nice when you see a lot of fellow forum members in there with you.

    After the poll gives us the day of the week, we will get into the finer details of the best time.

    being able to select multiple days might be worth considering. me personally, i don't care much if it's WED, FRI or SAT for example.

    just my 2c worth :)

    Only TF2? I think thats fine but it would be great if we put in other things like COD and stuff.

    I also would love to play Goldeneye against someone :D

    Due to time differences I usually play from late Friday to early Sunday mostly. There's also the occasional weekday game.

    Yes I noticed this 2 seconds after making the poll but for some reason I could not edit it or delete the thread like usual. So I figured statistically it should still work out the same with the prime day having the highest votes.

    It will just make you put more thought on the very best day for you.
