Reminder: Third OTW Chat on Saturday, January 19, 2008!

A quick reminder, ladies and jellyspoons! We announced our plans for a third IRC chat on Saturday, January 19th at 20:00 AWT, 11:00 GMT and 06:00 EST with Cathy Cupitt from the board attending [in this post].

(You can also find instructions on downloading an IRC client for your particular OS and information on how we run our IRC chats in the aforementioned post.)

If you are planning to attend, please comment to the linked post with your screen name and your question by 14:00 AWT (19th), 05:00 GMT (19th) and 00:00 EST (19th) so we can gauge how much interest there is.

So far, we haven't had any confirmed participants. *g* As we mentioned previously, we will not be able to hold the chat unless at least ten (10) people commit to attending.

If there aren't enough interested participants in this time zone at this particular time, we'll reschedule the chat or find a different way to continue the public dialogue between OTW and all interested parties.

Thank you!

Yeah, we're still trying to find the best ways to organize these sorts of discussions to make them convenient for everyone. Mind you, when we scheduled the Europe-friendly chat on a weekday evening, there weren't many takers then either.

It's possible (she said, speaking entirely for herself for a moment) that we Yanks are more likely to show up at chats because we're yappier. :)

Or more likely, there are vastly more of you, so it's more likely that there will be some who can make the time. The fewer people are there, the more likely they'll all fail their availability roll *descends into D&D mode temporarily*.
