This year's Christmas play.

Last year on break, KB and I randomly decided to put on an IRC-based
Christmas play, a presentation of A Christmas Carol (read it here). We decided we wanted to do it again this year, but this time, I'm hoping to be a bit more prepared.

(last time, we came up with the idea around 1:00AM, and didn't get through until nearly 3:00.)

Apparantly, we decided on Rudolf the Rednose Reindeer, since that's what's on the calendar. Now we need to put it together. We need people who would be willing to spend about two hours one night (the exact date and time is something we need to figure out, too.) in chat with us acting out their characters.

BoB also suggested the other day that we do it in voicechat. It'd be easiest to do it using TeamSpeak, which I could set up a server for, but we'd need someone to record it all for us, as well as enough people who would be willing to do it vocally.

Volunteers? Suggestions? Anything?

I volunteer to do my duty for my country.

But if it's oral (hoho) then I can only have a minor role as people might want to sleep, but on the plus side I already have Teamspeak downloaded for undisclosed reasons!

I will take part in the IRC-based one, depending on the date and time. :D

sounds fun~

Yeah, sounds fun. I'll see if I can be there! :D

Sounds cool, when? O_o

I don't get a mic til Xmas. :(

Neither will hsu.

I think I'd prefer an IRC-based one, as the only mic I have is crappy at best. But if I'm around I'll definitely take part in the chat one, and maybe in a vocal one if that's what we go with and if someone can persuade me to.

I'll do something anyway.

I'll give it a wizz, Rudolph is 1337.

Most people here are too mic-shy. IRC will have more success.

Let me know when this happens - I'm long overdue for a part.

Okay, so it's decided that we'll do it text based.

Now we need a date and time. I'm not out of school for break until Wednesday, so that day or later would probably be best.

What? Goddamnit, mic would be so much better though!

Well, as for date and time, I'm sure that most people cant do it during the day on Mon-Fri, so perhaps in the evenings?

Count me in, or out, but id prefer in. =) Anytime is good for me really, as long as its not to late, because im home and my parents go to bed very early =(.

Would something like 7:00PM EST be good for most people? It can be adjusted accordingly to whatever schedule we need, I'm just throwing it out there as a base time.

Thats good for me, anytime really is as long as it ends before midnight AST.

I'd like to!

I would soooo be in, but alas, I have to work until midnight for the rest of the week... :whimper:
Damn blockers...

I'm not sure it would be near as successful as A Christmas Carol if it's not when everybody's dead-tired.

I'll of course attend.

I stuck this thread, but it somehow became unstuck. I don't know what kind of jerk on staff did it, but I'll exact my revenge.

>:DDD

What time is that GMT? :o

I think it's something like 12:00AM GMT, if I'm thinking correctly.

Also, what day would be best? Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday seem to be the best candidates.

I'm useless with working our times. xD

This week? :/ I'll not be able to make it if it is at 12pm. I'm still at school all this week. ;_;

It'd be 12:00 AM, not PM.

xD wow, my bad, I meant 12:00AM. I'm dumb. I'll edit my post :P

edit: Yeah, Psy caught it.

Oh right. Hmm... I'll see what I can do. 12am... Well, Friday is the last day, I guess it won't matter if I'm falling asleep on the desks. :D

whooo! :excited: sounds like FUN :hyper:

This Friday? at 12am?
Ehhh, I'd like to. But I might end up leaving at half past :(

I say we should do it tomorrow. This is, of course, based solely on the fact that I'll probably be unavailable Friday till at least 8. And by tomorrow I meant Thursday. Forgot it was past midnight.

Yeah, I was planning on tomorrow night.

Damn, looks like I'm sitting out again.

Is it happening? I'm confused! (Not hard, I know, but still! :()

No.
