I'm looking to test a couple of ideas to fix multiplayer but I need a few people to join a game with me so I can test the network in normal conditions (playing with people from random locations).

If anyone is game for playtesting with me during any of the times in the poll, please post back and let me now!  The fate and future of the game depends on it! Muahahaha! :lol  :p .....or something.

Thanks everyone!

(quick reminder for myself: record the test once we get it going! :p)

I'm available on both the wednesday and the thursday, Tim. Not in north-american evenings though.

Someone else needs to record this one than me though. I don't have my computer with enough ram to both play and record the screen without a huge lag.

I have a new pc so can be available if I'm given advance notice. I assume it can run the game.

I'm getting my wisdoms removed tomorrow, so I may be a bit disoriented, but if I can sit upright I can participate. Don't expect any philosophical breakthroughs, though.

Wish I could, but my life's too hectic right now.  I could promise to be on, but it'll be like a 50/50 chance of me actually being able to be there unless it's 10:00pm or later.  That's when I stop taking appointments most of the time.....but I have been known to have appointments up till midnight at times.

I can do any north american evenings, starting at like 4:30 EST. I know it's not on there, but I can do any time on the weekends.

Alrighty. I guess in that case I cannot be in there (north american evenings is way too late for me to be up).

That's okay though. I just want someone to film it instead of me :p

Maybe there can be 2 tests since folks are spread across different time zones and countries.   1 for the usa, canada, mexico, ect, 1 for europe, asia, africa.

I think one is enough since Action just wants to know how it works.

Next to that I'm the only european :p

Thanks for wanting to help though, kor :)

The more people I can test with, the better, but it's true, I only need one test session.

Yes, it looks like a weekday evening is looking more appropriate for most people, understandably.  Any evening is fine with me so I'll look through this in more detail when I wake up (I've been up all night and I'm calling it bed time :p) and post back then!


Thanks for the input, everyone!
