Games

[SkrapssparkS]

This should help the community understand the sort of games we could play, I just chose random games, if you have any other games you'd like to suggest please do. It'd be great to get something like this going.

What is this, the billionth `What do you play` poll?

What is this, the billionth `What do you play` poll?

Well nobody seems to have done anything about them so I'm getting all the games people want to play the dates people want to play so the only bit of work left to do is to literally say "Right we are playing this game, on this date". If all else fails I shall make that post. But I would like to get some out of minecraft events up and running.

I'll take this down on monday or tuesday so we could get an event up and running by the weekend.

Polls such as this were for identifying games that we will host servers for, assuming we raise enough funds at the upcoming donation drive to cover the cost: https://nerd.nu/forums/topic/2965-poll-expanding-the-nerdnu-community/

 

What SkrapssparkS is doing here, I assume, is identifying a good day to have a player-hosted game (basically like SwitchViewz' Friday Night Gaming and Saturday Night Gaming events). Might be easier to just pick a day or time to complement those (sometime Sun-Thurs or during off-peak hours) or take over any Fri/Sat that doesn't have a game yet planned, then just roll with a game already known to be popular.

 

Also, moved poll/thread to the non-minecraft gaming section, as the events section is really more for events with an already planned date.

Please can we have earlier events. FNG/SNG by their name and nature are late night in american times. I see plenty of australians in their late night coinciding with european mornings, or european afternoons with american mornings.

Any better times suggested just put them forward and people can upvote the ones they prefer.

CS:GO is also very popular in the community, around a fifth of the people in the steam group play it.

Well I don't have GTA 5 but on the day we can play other games, people that don't have one game can play another while we wait for those that do have the game to finish. If we get bored of one game we can swap we don't have to stick to the games mentioned in this thread they are just to give an idea on what we might be playing.

Thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't actually seen those I was talking about the redditmc one however it's probably best to go on the unofficial player run group. Thanks for pointing that out.

the redditmc one

Yeah I ran that one, but we changed names here, so I made a post on that group about how we moved to the other unofficial one, as a official one wasnt up yet. Glad to see that people are still part of it.

If you want to post an event for this I can make an event on my group for it.

That'd be good, we want to get as many people involved as possible, unfortunately i'm not sure how much time i can spend on it got my end of semester exams coming up. But it's not the sort of thing that requires someone in charge.
