I agree on the schedule
But would it be possible for an alternative than email? or, maybe something else like a PM box for class requests + email notification?

We could use Google Calendar/Some Other Web-Based Scheduling Software.

I'm sorry reaper but that sentence is really throwing me off. What do you mean by 'alternative than email'? Do you mean being contacted when a slot gets filled? When a slot gets filled, an email and a PM will be sent to you, the PM going to your user account on the forum. The user will have your contact info so he/she may get in contact with you before you even check and vice versa. As Circ also suggested if it's easier to use another service like Google's Calendar, we could include a mashup as well or even both. I don't think we're gonna go as far sending SMS messages to peoples cellphones, that just seems a little too, overboard? Would be hardcore for sure though

I was busy all day putting together a site in drupal for my friend so tomorrow I'm gonna get around to install ing and getting the forum up. phpBB seems fine and I'll be able to link any/all other site details (teacher, classes, whatever) to it. We'll get this going. Slowly throughout the week I'd like to get the other pages up, even if they are a bit basic. I've seen a couple designs I'd like to apply to the site but that'll be on the bottom of the list.

Also for the servers, I know Circ and Hoopajoo we're looking into servers. Since this will be small/slow in the beginning one should suffice (maybe, maybe not) but a backup is definitely welcomed. Maybe we can get a naming scheme for them so we're not trying to slow down/block each other's servers? Try to get the SoTF tag broad casted as much possible.

Thanks all, this is turning out better than expected.

Yea, i typed it wrong, sorry

but you answered my question right on the spot.

Circuitous · 03-24-2008, 08:45 PM

If hoopajoo gets one set up, I'll keep mine as a backup and run hunted 24/7 otherwise.

Everything · 03-25-2008, 02:37 AM

24/7 hunted, sounds good.

We need more hunted maps D:

Well I just picked up a student, any progress on this?

reaper18 · 04-26-2008, 03:57 PM

FYC is doing something similar to this
We have training days where everyone teaches each other, things class specific.
Yesterday, we did Conc Aiming and also Conc Tricks/Jumping
Im sure a few people learned new tricks, as i learned how to conc aim.

Dr.Satan · 04-28-2008, 03:46 AM

cow is still working on it, but last I remember...rl kinda halted it for a bit.

reaper18 · 04-29-2008, 03:26 AM

RL comes first

myersjr · 04-30-2008, 07:57 PM
