Turn Chat Info and Starting Times Index

This thread is to list the dates and times of each turnchat, including a link to the turnchat threads. Each post will be made only by the elected president. This will also include gamesaves and chat logs. This is not a discussion thread. And post other than the president will be deleted.

Each term, the president will post in this thread, their starting times for their turnchat. Once a turnchat is completed, they will post a link to the turnchat, save, and log for that turnchat, or, a link to the thread.

Interim chat room information (to be moved to chat office thread and improved).

rooms: #turnchat (for the official chat), #demogame (for general demogame discussion)

Play Session Schedule

Creation: Thursday March 3, 10:00 PM MST (Midnight EST, 0500 GMT Friday)

Edit: The original time for Chat 1 was Saturday but it is too soon.
Chat 1: Monday March 7, 3:00 PM MST (5:00 PM EST, 2200 GMT)

Chat 2: Thursday March 10, 7:00 PM MST (9:00 PM EST, 0200 Friday GMT). President cannot play this time slot, scheduled for alternate DP from the CoC. Discussion has not died down on planning for this one so there hasn't been time to poll either. This play session cancelled, these turns will be played at the next regularly scheduled time.

Chat 3: Sunday March 13, 9:00 AM MST (11:00 AM EST, 1600 GMT)

Chat 4: Wednesday March 16, 6:00 AM MST (8:00 AM EST, 1300 GMT). President can only play 1 hour, then will fall to next available in CoC.
Chat 5: Saturday March 19, 4:00 PM MST (6:00 PM EST, 2300 GMT)


Chat 6: Tuesday March 22, 11:00 PM MST (Wednesday 0100 EST, 0600 GMT)

Chat 7: Friday March 25, 6:30 AM MST (8:30 AM EST, 13:30 GMT)
Saturday March 26, 4:00 PM MST (6:00 PM EST, 23:00 GMT)
Chat 8: Tuesday March 29, 11 PM MST (Wed. 1 AM EST, 0600 GMT)

Note: Daylight Savings Time has started most places -- but not Arizona. The difference between my time zone and GMT does not change, but the delta to Eastern Time (US) is now 3 hours, and to London it is now 8 hours. The best way to be certain you have the right time is to calculate your time based on the delta from GMT to where you are.

Chat 1: Sunday April 3, 4pm MST, 7pm EDT, 2300 GMT

Chat 2: Thursday April 7, 6am MST, 9am EDT, 1300 GMT

Chat 3: Sunday April 10, time TBD (will ask Tim to play, this is my wife's birthday and I value my life )

Here is the official turn chat schedule for Term 3. The times will be listed in GMT and in 24 hour format. For times greater than 12:00 subtract 12 for PM. I will also try and list one of the US time zones. If I post the time conversions wrong, please don't hesitate to correct them. In the case that I do get the conversions wrong, the GMT time is always the correct one. I am currently on GMT+1 (due to daylight saving), but will use GMT for all times.

Later dates are provisional to give an indication only, weekday times are unlikely to vary much, but I will vary the weekend times and probably have some chats on the Saturday rather than the Sunday as well.

If you have any comments, please feed them back to me in the Presidential Thread.
