King of the Forums Time Frame

Post by Josiah »

So, I need to figure out a time frame for KOTF this year. Ideally something when I'll have a decent amount of internet access. At the moment, I don't really have net access at work, though I might be able to get it at times. Travel though, makes things a bit more complicated and I want it finished no later than the end of March since I'll probably be traveling for the first half of April and have no idea where I'll be or what I'll be doing after that... Anyway, here's a few possible time frames. I'd appreciate some opinions.

As a note, I'll be traveling from something like Feb 27 - Mar 4 or 5th (exact dates aren't final yet but should be close). I plan to bring my computer but net access is unknown.

Feb 1 - Mar 3 (Starts really soon, and I might not have much net access during the last few days.)
Feb 6 - Mar 8 (I have a lot going on the week of the 6th, so this wouldn't be the greatest starting time for me)
Feb 13 - Mar 15 (My week long trip is in the middle, but it should work ok.)
Feb 20 - Mar 22 (Still have that week long trip in there plus an overnight trip right before the end, but it could still work.)
Feb 27 - Mar 29 (Starts during my week long trip and ends a few days after my jobs ends (which may mean I'll have a lot of free time or be traveling somewhere with unknown net access.)

The other option would be starting it really late (sometime between mid Apr and early May) when the traveling is over and I'm settled down wherever (hopefully with a new job). That would avoid all my traveling times which, in theory, would make things simpler for me. But since I don't know where I'm going to be living (Japan, Arizona, somewhere else in the US, etc) or what kind of job I'll have (game designer, game teaching, more English teaching, etc) it's hard to say for sure.

Feb 20 - Mar 22 sounds good to me.

Yeah, I want to go with either Feb 20 or Feb 27 as the starting date... mostly because spring break for me starts March 15 and I wouldn't be able to use it for any of the other options.

Whichever one's more convenient for you, Josiah. That's where my vote goes. [/brown-nosing]
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

I get Feb break the 20th-ish, I believe, so that'd be chill, but I'm probably busy during break, so it doesn't really matter for me.

Still haven't decided if I'm gonna try and keep my title or just chill.... I'll have to see.
May the Triforce be with you.

I don't have any particular preference, just as long as it starts sometime soon-ish.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

I have to agree with Saber. Feb. 20th-ish is the best time for me.

I guess it will start on the 20th then. More details will come when the time nears.
