VGCollect 2023 Secret Santa!

[Cartagia]

Well, to get things back on track, my gift is supposed to arrive today! How many folks would like to record an opening on the 8th? I think we had two people say yes and another say they couldn't make it?

I'm still looking clear for the 8th.

Are you able to stream Zoom to your Twitch channel? I can try to figure it out myself but I don't know Twitch very well.

I'm not actually currently set up to do any streaming after I ditched OBS Labs.  I never went back and set-up the original OBS for streaming.  Should probably update my sig lol

The week of the 8th is fine, but the actual evening wouldn't work for me. But, always happy to watch the fun later.

I'll try my best to be there on the 8th!!

Once there seems to be a consensus as to when the planned event should take place, I'll update the opening topic post with the details for quick access. And, if the event is being streamed, I'll add link information too, although that may not be until shortly before the event begins.

Great! Looking forward to seeing everyone whether it's in real-time or later.

We were thinking 9 PM UTC-05:00 on the 8th, what time would that be for you and is it something that would work?

Just to keep the conversation going at a steady pace, 21:00 UTC-05:00 is 03:00 UTC+01:00. It's certainly a difficult plan to organize since we have participants at both ends of the world. If somehow everyone were to participate at 21:00 UTC-05:00, it would be 18:00 UTC-08:00 (December 8, 6:00pm) at the earliest and 14:00 UTC+12:00 (December 9, 2:00pm) at the latest.

If we know certain participants won't be joining, it may be easier to plan accordingly. That detail could very well change the preferred day, even.

12/9 in the afternoon in the states would work. But I think that would mean koemo couldn't join.

That's fine, no worries. Though I hope I can watch the stream later . I'll open my secret santa on my birthday

I like how everyone is so willing to be flexible. But, I think it's time to settle on a finalized date and time.

Apart from koemo1, ferraroso is the only other non-US participant who's shown interest in joining a gift-opening event. It may be best to message them to see if that interest remains. If not and there's no one outside of the US able to or interested in joining, then settling on a time and date should be much easier.

I won't be able to join - will have to watch after  .
