@chills42, you about by chance?

I guess that answers that! (:

chills42

@RebeccaChernoff why yes i am :)

Rebecca Chernoff

You didn't actually give me any times in your email... (;

Rowland Shaw

@JamWheel Anything nice?

JamWheel

no lol, only have ingredients for spaghetti bolognese (home made bolognese sauce though)

Rebecca Chernoff

@Pearsonartphoto It won't be today / in a couple hours. (:

@JamWheel thats what we're having tonight too

Rebecca Chernoff

Also, the 4 of you suck at being available at the same time...except for now apparently. Which was not evident from your replies... q:

Rowland Shaw

@JamWheel Well, we had homemade caeser salad, so nothing wrong with spag bol

chills42

@RebeccaChernoff 12-3pm tomorrow is great... or 12-4 wed. and I think i'm free most of the day thur.

yeah... we do a nice job of spreading things out :)

Rowland Shaw

@RebeccaChernoff Well, it turns out the wife is a little unwell :/

(and no, that's not because the homemade caeser salad ;) )

Rebecca Chernoff

heh

@RowlandShaw that's what you claim at least :)

Rowland Shaw

@chills42 She cooked (I'm normally the chef), so I'm innocent

chills42

fair enough

rfusca

If she cooked, and you're normally the chef, maybe it was the salad

Rebecca Chernoff

So between the 4 of you, @RowlandShaw and @chills42 are available at the same time, and @jrista and @Pearsonartphoto are available at the same time.

Except that those two times are totally different.

>_<

chills42

@RebeccaChernoff Perfect :) we like to be difficult!

Yay for geographical coverage

JamWheel

ah the joys of running a multi time zone online team :)

Rebecca Chernoff

Wednesday 7 or 8pm UTC (2 or 3pm ETC) and Thursday 2 or 3am UTC (9 or 10 pm Wed EST)

rfusca

I've got my questions ready...i'm hitting 'em hard. "If you were a moderator for the Middle East, how would you bring peace?" ;)

Rebecca Chernoff

I did 2 THCs for Gaming as they were evenly split also, but they also had 12 nominees, not 4.

Do y'all have enough chat activity to do 2 THCs?

rfusca

typically we don't have enough to do 1

Rebecca Chernoff

Feb 14, 2011 20:03

I am open to suggestions here.

Rowland Shaw

@rfusca To be fair, we're getting more...

rfusca

@RowlandShaw very very true, its definitely picked up

Rebecca Chernoff

There will be a banner on the site letting people know the chat cast is happening.

chills42

The funniest part of this is that I'm usually pretty open in the evenings... but this week i'm busy :)

Rebecca Chernoff

Well I'm doing this for the photoSE community

So community, what would you have me do? (:

Rowland Shaw

Feb 14, 2011 20:06

Well, I think that's what @jrista was saying, too

I blame @Pearsonartphoto - if he hadn't have run, it would've been uncontested ;)

rfusca

lol

technically nominations are still open, we could have an influx right before closing

Rowland Shaw

Very true

chills42

@rfusca I'm actually surprised there hasn't been more

Rowland Shaw

A couple of the people I thought might have said in chat they weren't interrested

chills42

@RowlandShaw true

rfusca

@chills42 truth be told, i think most have been happy with the community in general and the appropriateness of the modding plays a big role in that. From my POV, why mess with a good thing. I don't feel like anybody is abusing power or being too absent (of those that are rerunning). Personally, I'd be more interested if I felt I had something to add beyond what is already been done.

Rebecca Chernoff

So, these are the options I see: do 2 THCs, subjectively pick 1 time and have 1 THC knowing 2/4 won't make it, or don't do a THC and y'all can handle things informally with meta posts asking the nominees questions or on chat if you so choose.

Rowland Shaw

@RebeccaChernoff I'd suggest its possibly fairer to not do a THC, but do it via meta instead

rfusca

+1 for meta

chills42

@RebeccaChernoff If you're going to only have one, I'd suggest the one with @Pearsonartphoto, since the current mods are probably a little more known.

Rowland Shaw

Generally I'm around between 19:00 and 22:00 in here most days anyway.

chills42

Feb 14, 2011 20:13

@RowlandShaw yeah, that seems fair

Jay Lance Photography

+1 for meta...

Rebecca Chernoff

Ultimately the community drives the THCs, I just do the organizing, so I'll follow your lead. I won't be offended if there isn't a THC.

Jay Lance Photography

Personally, I'd kinda be surprised if there were much in the way of attendees for a THC...

rfusca

We're pretty international here, its usually quite an accident when more than a few of us end up on here at the same time. Scheduled events in the past like critque sessions have shown low attendance. Like Jay, I'd be pretty shocked if more than a few folks came.

Jay Lance Photography

You're sorta lookin' at all the chat regulars ATM. :-)

Rowland Shaw

Feb 14, 2011 20:17

@JayLancePhotography And then some

Rebecca Chernoff

@JayLancePhotography and you're such a pretty bunch. q:

Jay Lance Photography

That's us. :-)
