YOU :!: are Invited to
The Fleet-Wide Squad of the Month Meet!


The scheduling of the JULY Meet is now CLOSED.

It is time to choose the next meet date. Getting started early for July, because I will be going on vacation at the end of the month.

Post your scheduling choice in a reply below. Note that dates you say you cannot attend are more important than the dates that you say you prefer in deciding the date of the meet. We are trying to get the highest turn out of all squad members. Thus, if 5 people prefer a date but 1 more can attend only on another date, then the date on which 6 can attend will win even though 5 of the 6 preferred a different date. It is assumed that you can attend all the date options, unless you say otherwise in a post below or have communicated that fact to me directly.

Extra weight is given to the votes of squad captains, squad XOs, and anyone who is actually committing to showing up at a time (as opposed to "maybe" showing). Scheduling depends ultimately on who wants to participate and who will actually show up. In order to get the maximum turn out from US and European members, our starting time is traditionally set on a weekend at 10 PM in UK (which in winter is the same as GMT/UTC), but the time chosen depends on who is committing to be there.

Currently, I am favoring [Sunday the 9th].

The other choices are Saturday the 8th, Saturday the 1st, and Sunday the 2nd. I am leaving on vacation in the mountains of California for the last two weeks in July, so the [16th, 22nd,] 23rd, 29th, and 30th are off the table. I will be packing on Saturday the [15th], so it is an option, but I could could only manage the competition that day, you would be on your own the rest of the event.

    What is Squad of the Month?
    The Squad of the Month ("SotM") meet is a monthly fleet event which starts with an inter-squad competition to determine the Fleet's Squad of the Month. The competition is followed by group activities which may include: build advice, challenge match PvP, teaming up to cruise the PvE/PvP queues, and just hanging out together on TS. We are a casual fleet, and participation in any portion of SotM is optional.

    The rules for the competition can be found posted here. The competition portion of the meet is not designed for perfect balance; there is no great honor in winning, nor dishonor in losing. It is intended mostly to provide a focus activity for everyone at the event which allows us to hang out together, improve our gaming skills, and have fun. :)

Early half of July would be ideal

Sunday the 2nd or 9th is good. I'm working on both Saturdays.

Changing the lead date to Sunday the 9th then, but could change back to Saturday the 8th if any squad officer/member wants to attend and can't make a Sunday (disadvantage to being a VA, when it comes to SotM scheduling you rank under squad members :) ).

Sundays and Mondays are my days (er, nights) off, so the 9th would work out perfectly for me as well.

Scheduling has been open for almost a week. Two conflicts with the original date, but none voiced to the alternate suggested. Therefore, the next SotM will be:

Sunday, July 9th at 21:00 PM UTC (i.e., 10PM BST, 5PM EDT, 4PM CDT, 2PM PDT) :!:


The scheduling of the July meet is now CLOSED.
