Gentleman
We should come up with day and time convenient to most of us to play this beautiful and exiting game.
My proposal would be weekend since we have members from extremely different time zones, but for now let’s just get general idea what time and day of the week could we get together .

Current Steel Beasts Missions
D.O.W. Missions Saturday @ 21:00 - 23:00 GMT
T.A.N.K.S. Missions Sunday @ 21:00 - 23:00 GMT
Havoc: Missions Sunday @ 19:00 - 20:30 GMT

Thank you for posting the steel beasts mission times as this group is primary for steel beasts.
I do like the idea of having a time or possible times to have free or open play ARMA 3 game play.

I feel that usual time 21 GTM would be best time. But in Friday, since as far as I remember there is some trouble of playing steelbeast during Fridays cause there will be TGIF later on. So, we could play Arma instead?

Friday would be a good day. However the time could be an issue. @21:00GMT many of our American members may still be at work. So possibly later on a Friday (not to late though)?
The question about SB play on a Friday has been raised before and will be raised again. TGIF is an "official" game and it is not permitted to have a Steel Beasts session at a similar time as it may be seen as "dividing" the community.........

I think the only good time for this is Saturday after an hour or more break. Here is my reasoning.
With TANKS and HAVOC on Sunday and most people having to get ready for work the next day, and that it is a Sunday for those of you that go to church. This would make for one hell of a long day IMO.
With TGIF on Friday 0100 GMT, and most US members working till about 2200 GMT, (I think I have those times right), it does not give us much time in between to play, and also makes for a very long day/night, and does not include if anyone is going out on the town that night either. 8)
Saturday only has DOW right now at 2000 GMT.
Other than that, the only options I see is stating a time during the week, just coming online and asking in the TS channel, or posting a day and working out a time in the forum each week, or on going as needed.
Just my 2 cents.

Hi Cougar.
I agree with what you say about Sunday. We will have to discuss some more

So, some info about the ArmA3 Sever. This moment the server is running RHS Becti persistent world.
You can join every time the server and start to play.

Ok it looks so far like
Day = Fri or Sat
Time = 21:00 - 23:00 GMT
-
Again I have to say I do not see how either of those times will work. Saturday DOW starts at 2000 GMT. Friday most US people will still be at work till 2200 or 2300 GMT going by US Central time zone, and 2100 or 2200 by US eastern time zone.
Make sure you think about your vote prior to making it, or change it accordingly with the already scheduled events that are core to DOW.
It would be nice to actually have a date and time for all of us to play setup.

Hi Cougar
I published the general consensus so far. Nothing is decided as of yet.
You can still change your vote but please do vote.
Thanks

That is what we are aiming for. However if people do not participate in a discussion such as this then their opinion will not be taken into consideration (obviously).
We tried a "test" session on Friday 23:00 GMT and it went smooth. This is despite the low turnout.

Hello All,
I voted since I do own ARMA, but aren't any of you afraid that your stretching your time over the weekend? The reason I ask is that I had previously belonged to a group that flew Falcon 4 Allied Force and then we started to branch out into other sims, then before you knew it the group grew apart because of varying interest in the other sims.

You raise a valid point. I will try and address it.
Our priority is and has been Steel Beasts Pro. However I believe it is good to have these other sims openly discussed and casual sessions created. It is difficult to find a like-minded group of people to play with and I believe we attract the right kind of people here. Why not offer other sims/strategy games? We have the right environment. SB also takes priority in any schedule.
The members who want to play SB will not be affected by these other games. SB is our main sim.
