fic_rushThe time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of modding schedules. Specifically, it's time for me to update the Master Modding Schedule and ask you talk of many things involving time zones and availability.
If you are a mod, or have modded, or would like to mod, or just want to be well-modulated, please comment on this post and answer the following questions. Please give answers in your own time zone, or in GMT -- and tell me which you're using. Please ignore everyone else's schedule at this time: this is all about YOU. Because we're all special snowflakes. Except for Fred, who is a special hailstone.
Please reply even if you've told me this information before and nothing has changed. If I don't hear from you at all, I will take that to mean that you are no longer interested in modding and I'll cry. If you can't commit to a regular mod shift, but are interested in/willing to do occasional Stunt Mod shifts, please say so, but also answer the questions.
If you have never modded at all, or you've been an Emergency Stunt Mod, or a member of the Fic Rush Highly Irregulars, or a Master Usurper, or you modded in the past and took a break and would like to mod again, this is your chance! Crack a glowstick! Set off fireworks!
1. Out of our usual 48 hours, what hours are you NOT EVER available to mod? (Due to sleeping, regular commitments, etc.)
2. Out of our usual 48 hours, what hours are the VERY VERY BEST for you to mod?
3. There is no number 3.
4. If your schedule is in mad flux, but you're interested anyway, what's your best guess?
5. Are you more comfortable with having a set, regular shift that's pretty much the same each weekend, or would you prefer a variable shift, or are you only interested in (or able to commit to) providing occasional emergencyusurpation coverage?
6. Is there a minimum or maximum amount of time that you're comfortable modding?
7. Are you willing to mod for more than one shift in a 'Rush weekend? If so, can you do it regularly, occasionally, or onlywhen suitably bribed in emergencies?
8. Is there anything else I should know about your life that has bearing on this? (for example: you're a student and your schedule goes through periodic reshuffling; you work on alternate weekends; you're moving to Antarctica and starting a new job on the night shift; you're getting married/having a baby/finding a cure for cancer/marrying a Cancer; you're a clone and can mod twice at the same time, unless you get into a fight with yourself)
9. VERY IMPORTANT: What time zone are you in?

1) I sleep from midnight to 9am CST both Fri/Sat and Sat/Sun.
8) I'm in grad school, so my schedule could potentially become a sitcom, but I don't really do anything on weekends, so it shouldn't become too much of a problem.
2) Saturday during the day/evening (like noon-4) is prime modding time, but actually mornings have been working quite nicely for my productivity...
4) when in doubt, 42
7) I feel like I've been doing two shifts recently? It seems to be working for me, so if you need me to do multiple, I'm down.
5) Regular time, please :)
6) I mean, clearly I have no qualms modding forever, but I'd like to at least try to keep it under 12, including usurpations?
I don't actually intend on galactic domination I just never leave my computer :P
