Best Days to set up Wargames (Both factions)

[Honey Badger]

This is a thread to see what are best days to run F2p/ Vet restriction Wargames Horde vs Ally. People who are looking to set up Wargames, polls like this are helpful to show us what days are best for higher attendance.



Once we can figure out the best 3 days for people will be 2 hour window for games to be set at on selected days.


We already know Saturday is working , this is a poll to figure out other than saturday what other day works for best if an optional 2nd day is to be established.



I put multi days to vote and also public so we can actually see the serious 20s who will participate and last poll will close in 5 days

almost any day after 7pm eastern time

The amount of people voting on these polls is one thing, actually signing up is another.

Kind of agree with Lankypuss.
Not that I have participated in any of the wargame due to time constraints and I just do not use Skype because of DDoS.
My suggestion would be to give priority to regulars. Simular to a regular raiding group. For those of you that have been in any organized raiding.
Have fun!

Very true rue lanky but by these few Wargames last week and this Saturday and possibly next Tuesday. People who are looking to hold wargames can use this as a tool, to be able to see who are the serious people we need to cater towards for this event.

We need about 24-30 people in the community, who want to be involved. Worst scernio we can do like what we did last Saturday we couldn't fill spots we could check with AP or BWL to fill in spots. I thought wow that was amazing. We knew what specs we were looking for and we could just use Aerie peak or BWL to pull reserves from. Use the Ap / BWL population to strength our regular Wargames.

The problem with finding people to fill in spots last min is that one it shows there isn't enough interest in the 10v10s since roster wasn't filled out, two they may not be willing to voice communicate. Both resulting in uncompetitive games, which will eventually lead to less people signing up since they know how games will go.

If only there was some kind of hype around the event that will attract people to it. However, bad news aside, it's great to see that you've decided to take a lead role in these events. I'm sure everyone participating appreciates it.

Lanky I appreciate the feedback, feedback is the only way we can evolve as a community. So many advantages that I love about the f2p Wargames compared to 20 vet or 29 events or even guild vs guild Wargames. There is less drama, the games are less bursty.

Your 100% right about voice being needed due to less bursty coordinating as a team to get a flag return. If switching to another voice communication other than Skype needs to be used so people can play. thats an easy fix. I'm all about protecting people IP addresses.


Back to lanky , you said there isn't enough of a interest/buzz for 10 vs 10. I say lets us all create that buzz and build that interest together.

Publicvent is free. I am sure there are others. I have offered before. Others have offered.
Publicvent from what I understand is not all that bad. And, of coarse the big thing is that it is F R E E and safe.
People do not have to speak or have a mic. As long as they have some kind of way to hear other people it would help tremendously. In addition, it is a lot more fun.
Wouldn't you agree HB?

Well I agree your Fc, all healers and target caller and possible person in charge of cc's like bend mentioned a boomy doesn't remove ur poly thru dots. Id say it's up to ur groups lead. Hey alot of us hate talking on a mic but if I'm negotiating something other than Skype to protect DDosing and making people feel comfortable, I think it's a fair & reasonable requests everyone speak if they need to on vent or etc thru a mic, but ultimately it's up to the groups lead.


but where just looking to find days to host games, so far Thursday try Sunday is looking good. Well reevaluate after 5 days of the poll and I count the vote of the people who actually sign up for events.

 

[Allybeboba]

I will post up a some ventrillo info if people are interested. Just say the word or PM me.
It does have a max user count of 999.

I appricate if your offering vent for f2p Wargames. I'd only ask that some community leaders have admin permission to mute people and make passwords for channels so we aren't intruptted. Would that be doable Sydney ?
