Round 58 schedule

[lolmac]

So, here we go!  Please confirm if your shifts work -- I've tapped a couple of the Irregulars.  Also, hunt for errors with your usual ruthless zeal.

I have not actually assigned anyone to the Friday daytime shifts:  it's currently open for volunteers, first come first usurped.  I've divided it into 3-hour shifts.  Claim one, and I'll update the schedule and tailor it to your time zone.  Anything still unclaimed when we start is fair game for usurpation. xandromedovna, I have only scheduled you for one shift at present, on the expectation that you'll cover part of Friday, and hoping not to burn you out completely by the end of the weekend!

There's also a gap on Sunday, open for bitter rivalry and battles to the death our wonderful volunteers.

raktajinos, you have your first assignment! Also, you need to choose a Pretentious Title for yourself, as does a_q.

Open for volunteers:

Hour -9: 3 pm GMT (10 am EST Fri) to
Hour -7: 5 pm GMT (noon EST)

Hour -6: 6 pm GMT (1 pm EST) to
Hour -4: 8 pm GMT (3 pm EST)

I'm off on Friday so if you want to pencil me in for a day shift I'd be willing to give it a go

[lolmac]

No one has claimed any specific shifts, so feel free to dive in!

[clocketpatch]

I think I'll try for hour 42. That's 10 AM MST if I'm not mistaken.

[clocketpatch]

And just realise thats a Sunday hour... Whoops.

[lolmac]

It's an hour that needs a mod, though, if you're able to cover it.

[clocketpatch]

Would that I could, but I'll be out of town all day. :/

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

Definitely available for my regular shift, can't claim a Friday shift right now but will cheerfully usurp if the need arises and I'm online.

[lolmac]

Have at it! Nobody actually claimed any specific shift, so it will be a bloodbath free-for-all.

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

I'll see if I can finally jump in an usurp at one point. The idea makes me nervous...which is completely stupid, but *hands*

[lolmac]

Yay!!

[a-q.livejournal.com]

Oh, so sorry! I gave my pretentious title in reply to your private message, but I don't think I realized to post it anywhere else...
I want to be 'The Nailpolish Foreman' :)
Today's color is red!

And yes, those times work fine!

[lolmac]

Ah, now I remember the PM about the title! "Foreman" is not actually very pretentious in itself, so can we call you Supreme Nail Polish Foreman? See revision above.

Also, can you cover an extra hour in your first shift? Lost Spook can't start until Hour 13. (See above, again.)

[a-q.livejournal.com]

That's a great title :)

Sure, no problem with the extra hour!

[thisbluespirit]

I can do Hour 13 & Hour 14, but not not Hour 12 (11am GMT), because that is midway through my resting/not-on-the-pc period. Sorry!! (I probably did that stint before when it was GMT+1, because that would have been actually 12-2, which I can do.)

/o\

[lolmac]

Aha, the change from summer time definitely mucked things up there. I've tweaked your shift -- thank you very much for being able to cover it!

[thisbluespirit]

Time zones, daylight saving - they're all so inconvient, we should probably just have fic_rush time! (The Hour of the Penguin, The Hour of the Alien Fish, The Hour That Got Away... ;-D)

And, yes, I can do that - noted somewhere handy so I don't forget!

[xandromedovna.livejournal.com]

My Sunday shift looks fine. And good call; I will certainly need all my strength for Friday afternoon usurpations :D

(Also, not to be that gurl, but where's Hour 0?)

[lolmac]

Since the Rush starts at the beginning of Hour 1, that's effectively Hour 0. Although if you happen to be usurper-in-charge on Hour -1, you will certainly be in a position to retitle it!

[ylla.livejournal.com]

To be pedantic, I think it's only EET - Europe all went back together at the end of October. Two hours ahead is right, though :)
(I didn't recognise the abbreviation and was curious.)

[lolmac]

Oh, you're right! I had fixed the other zone abbreviations, but missed that one, because it's new to me. Thank you!

[isdon-isgood9.livejournal.com]

My hours look fine but it's been a while since I've done a round so who knows? I could be wrong :D

[glinda-penguin.livejournal.com]

*crackes knuckles*

*dusts off lj*

I'd like to volunteer for Hour -9 as I'm off work and actually here for once!
