CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
I would suck at it, but I wouldn't mind playing it. I can do it any date, but I would prefer later evening.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
Hey, anyone interested in playing the rest of the questions on IRC should shoot me an email at externalsolipsism at gmail dot com so we can work out a date. Sometime next week is what I'm aiming for and I'd like to know what times work for everyone.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
So I'll tentatively suggest the coming Wednesday, August 25th, at 8 PM as a good date for people who want to play the rest of the questions and the packets of death on IRC. If no one vocalizes their inconvenience either here or over email, I'll assume that date is fine with everyone.

Yes, it's 8 PM EST, and we'll gather in #quizbowl and maybe move to another channel afterwards.Sir Thopas wrote:Which packets have you done already?

The only questions that have been read were the ones played at CO. There are a couple other packets, a bunch of replacement questions, and some packets of death to be played.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
Yeah, sorry about that. For reasons unknown to me I had convinced myself that it was happening Thursday night rather than Wednesday night. I'll tentatively reschedule things for tonight; if people can't show we can always work out another date. I'll also send Abid a copy of the remaining questions in case there's a night that works for everyone else and I can't be there.

I can't make tonight. I could do tomorrow or Saturday, though.

Selfishly, I would also prefer Friday or Saturday.

I definitely can't do Saturday or Sunday but could probably make it on Friday.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
I don't think either Friday or Saturday work for me; next week I'd be free Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evenings. Does any of those days work for everyone?

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
Zero percent chance I can make Tuesday, a bit under 50/50 for the other two. I'd love to show up, but chances are I just won't be able to.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
Wednesday is definitely out for me. Tuesday is most likely out, though I might be able to re-schedule if that turns out to be a day that's good for everyone else. Thursday works fine for me.Megalomaniacal Panda on Absinthe wrote:I don't think either Friday or Saturday work for me; next week I'd be free Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evenings.

I'd rather do it before Wednesday, if possible.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
I've just realized that Thursday is out for me. I guess it looks like we're doing this tomorrow night. I don't think I can start until around 9-9:30, if that's alright.

Re: CO Side Event: The Jean-Baptiste Lully Memorial
I was in #quizbowl waiting for this before Matt Weiner kicked me out. Anyone happen to see this and care to tell me what room, assuming not #quizbowl, this is in?

Just as an update, I did send this to George a few days ago, but he won't post it until FNT is done and shipped out.
