Well, Im back! got a laptop and can play somewhat laggy minecraft!!!!! =) I was monotoring the server for a couple of days and didn't see anyone on. And like boya said, its lost its spark. As I missed the get together and im guessing most people did I'm suggesting a community event. everyone with youtube channels can put out the server IP in a video, while the Happy Diggers Community hosts a party in the server lobby. This whole shabang will go down on lets say, August 25th, that should give people time to see this thread and respond. Please respond below what you think. On the 25th, we could keep the party going all day, so nobody has to worry about road blocks or things they have to do on that day. Im thinking we have a paintball/spleef tournament and pumpkin pie for everyone! I hope this works cause I dont want to have to retire the flag.

Maybe we could try the 24th or 23rd instead? Considering I'm a few good hours ahead of everyone in terms of time zones, I'd rather stay up during the weekend rather than Monday. :l

Don't mind either way. Just might make it easier for everyone as well as me.

I agree that friday/saturday are probably best for most people. Some people have jobs and/or school and don't like to stay up late on sunday nights.

So if it's possible I would suggest moving it to the 23rd or 24th. Also use our new TeamSpeak server at ip: teamspeak.happydiggers.net :)

Ok once again, the party is being moved TO THE 23RD OR THE 24TH I WOULD APPRECIATE PEOPLE TELLING ME WHICH DAY THEY WOULD LIKE MORE. IF WE DO NOT GET ENOUGH PEOPLE TO TELL ME WHAT THEY WANT IT WILL BE THE 24TH OF AUGUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What time is this happening?

Well, Pernix is the only problem here. Pernix being Australian, is farther ahead than any of us. I'm guessing he's GMT +7, making the range I know of between GMT-7 and GMT +7. That's a 14 hour difference between the staff members.

I play Civ 5 with some internet pals, and we have a similar problem because there is an Australian. If we start at 3 PM Britain time, it would be 8 AM for the staff in Mountain time(GMT -7) and 10 PM GMT +7. Pernix would most likely be the first person to leave because it would be late for him, but at least he would show up :D

From the people who have replied so far, it would only be between GMT -5(Not sure what state Talon lives in) and GMT+7. In that case, I'm fine with waking up at 8 AM so Pernix can play longer.

I don't mind what time this event happens. Don't want to make anyone stay up later or get up earlier just so I can play longer.

Also, I'm GMT+10. Wrong end of Australia, Demman. ;)

Curses! I never knew Australia was so big!

In that case, you're 15 hours ahead of me >_<

So, I can still wake up at 8, do you care about being up at 11?

Talon, if you're reading this, what state do you live in?

Pernix_8D
22nd August 2013, 11:32
I don't mind.

Guess this all depends on where ever Talon lives now, though.

talon6758
23rd August 2013, 00:55
Sadly, I live in Washington. Hardest to figure out time. So in my first post I said its gonna be pretty much all day so anyone can access it at any time of the day. So we don't have to worry much about time. Any time on the 24 of August.

Pernix_8D
23rd August 2013, 12:36
Oh, well. Righto then.

Might not work as well as you may hope though, Talon. :S

Perhaps we could try something like this again, 'cept with a little more planning... and warning.

I know alot of people on the forums have youtube channels, to attract new players, they could put out videos to support the servers and invite people

Pernix_8D
2nd September 2013, 11:58
How's the 21st look?

talon6758
2nd September 2013, 18:22
Of september? Depends on if its a saturday and what time. Cant do it from 9:30 to 1:00, pacific time

boya0910

2nd September 2013, 19:13
I changed the thread title to something a little less depressing ;)

21st of September is on a Saturday. I think I might be able to make it.

talon6758
3rd September 2013, 05:09
Youd ont like my thread name? =( anyway what time on Saturday? Cant do it from 9:00 to like 1:30 pacific time. Also, is it just a server meet? Or are we going to try and attract new people? I personally think we should try and attract new people to help re-start Happy Diggers. Alot of use have youtube channels and we can put videos out on those.

Pernix_8D
3rd September 2013, 11:12
Okay, so we have the date. Just need to figure out the times and what we're actually doing during the meet. :P

I have no idea what would be a good thing to do. Maybe a tournament with the minigames? A building competition on one of the servers? Or just the usual meet and talk for a bit sort of things?

boya0910
3rd September 2013, 18:32
21st is good for me!

InsaneJ
3rd September 2013, 19:04
I just had a chat with Marius. We're going to try to get the Public HappyDiggers RPG server up and running by the 21st. Make it sort of a release-day-thing maybe :)

Pernix_8D
4th September 2013, 09:18
Date: 21st September
Time: Will work that out
Event: RPG Release

Startin' to sound good to me.

Oh, and is the RPG Pack as CPU/RAM heavy as the AMP pack? If so than I won't be able to show up. My lappy can't take the strain. :L

Marius49
4th September 2013, 10:37
Its not that heavy on resources as the AMP, even RJ when he tested it was surprised to get really good frames running it. You can play around with it a little its on the FTB launcher.

Pernix_8D
4th September 2013, 14:08
Okay, considering most of our players are either European or American, I've figured that they'll be somewhere between these time zones:

UTC-7 : PDT (West coast of America)

UTC+3 : EEST (Eastern Europe)

It's a 10 hour difference between the two, but we can figure out a good time for the meet. Might help if we could shrink the gap, though. So post your time zones if you haven't already.

You need to download the FTB launcher, add private mod pack, and type in the code. Not too hard :P The launcher does everything for you.

talon6758
8th September 2013, 02:13
No, where and how do I do that?

InsaneJ
8th September 2013, 03:45
Read the forum thread about the HappyDiggers RPG mod pack.

Marius49
11th September 2013, 11:59
So we have a hour for the meeting yet? I say that the event will take place the whole day and I have a good idea for it but first we need a hour where everyone will be at least at the same place before we start. One hint I will give you its that it will require team play also the reason we all should be there at once. ;)

Pernix_8D
11th September 2013, 12:25
No idea what time we should start. Forgot about this all together tbh ^.^

Something everyone has to agree on, though

boya0910
11th September 2013, 14:00
I suggest 7pm european time, that way the guys in the us have woken up! the only problem is pern :/

Pernix_8D

Don't worry about me, mate. Just decide on a time! ^.^
