Jay, possibly Inesdar, and I are going to discuss the HWCS and want to know if anyone would like to join. The point of the convo is to bring me up to speed on the different worlds since I am taking over leadership. We would love to have those committed as well as those on the fence join us. If you can't make it from 8AM-9:30AM CST we will record it.

If you have any questions you'd like discussed you can post them here. Pm me if you want to join. We can make it so you can type in chat if you dont have a mic.

What day?

Oops. Got it. I'll be there.

We are currently planning to use Skype for this call, since we have already gotten used to using it for conference calls, so I suggest you add at least me as your contact on skype, so I can set it up. My username on there is jay.lauser.

I'll try to make it, but it depends on several factors. That is the only time that day that I can do school, as we will be driving northward most of the day. I may be able to do some extra school today or do some in the car. For school purposes my internet is blocked at that time, so I'd need to ask my parents to unlock it, which would also involve convincing them that I don't need to do school....It also depends on if I can remember my Skype password... Jay, if you say that it is absolutely necessary that I be there to represent my team, it will probably happen. I would also probably only type, so as to not bother my brothers who would be doing school. See you then, maybe...

* chuckles * Alright. Get some schoolwork done then!

Caleb,
Seeing that I just anounced this today I wont require anyone to come, but having team leaders would make it so much better for discussion.

Having the ability to voice chat will be a big bonus if possible. If you can please try.

This is emarrassing but I just got called in to work so we will have to reschedule.

This very rarely happens but when I am asked I need to do it to support my family.

Can we reschedule to Saturday same time?

I am so sorry about this. Thank you for understanding.

That is perfectly acceptable for me.

I'll be there.

XP I just did all of tomorrows school work...I may be able to make it Saturday, but I can't say for sure. We'll be out of state, but the house where we are going has internet. Since it would be Saturday that would be more likely that I could use audio, but where we are going may be hard to find a suitable place where I wouldn't disturb others and be able to hear.

I won't be there, I don't have Skype.

Skype is free, Varon. Even if you don't have a mic you can join us and type in comments or questions.

And I'm so sorry Elanhil! Good job getting your work done.

Glad Hannah and Jay can make it. I hope many more can as well. This likely won't be the only such meeting, so maybe next time if you can't.

Yeah, I learned I'm doing my old volunteer job on Friday.

I may be able to get the details worked out on Skype to be there. (Pondering getting my own account, so I have to get that all squared away.) I won't be doing audio, however, and I don't know how likely my attendance is.

Aaw sadness, I don't have Skype I'm afraid but will you be letting us know what went on etc?

Oh, you also have to have premium skype to do video conference. I can get the trial, but that would rule out future calls.

Folks, skype is free. We don't need video trials or anything too difficult for you to get it between now and Saturday. Go (here) to get your free version on Windows. My user name is timothy.ward7

I know it's not that hard to get. I just have to obtain parental permission.

(I'm one of those strange grown-up kids that still gets parental permission for stuff. )

I hear you, Philly. I'm exactly the same.

We won't be doing video conference, just voice. If you don't have a mic, just listen in and talk with chat.

If there is a possibility of joining in, send your contact info to either Tim or Me, or just add us. One or other of us needs everyone added on skype for us to call everyone.

I have two skype names, but we'll go with elanhil. Less confusing. Jay, I'm pretty sure I already have you added.

Yep, got you.

Whoo thanks Tim! Downloaded it and sent you a friend request. I'll certainly try and be there!

So...you don't need skype premium to do conference voice calls?

I haven't got a web cam so I'll just have to type. I found you Elanhil!

Nope. Just regular skype and you can voice and video.

I don't have skype, so I'm out.

*echoes Airianna* Thankfully, I don't need to be there, though...

That might work better for me too as we will be traveling today a little later...

* chuckles * It can often take about a half hour to get set up and everyone going anyways. I will be there early to talk with Tim, but I don't have a later limit so it can go late if we need. I don't mind having it a half hour later.

Ok so English time it will be about 3 o'clock am I right? These time differences confuse me lol.

You are the same time as me. 2pm.

Aah ok thanks Jay

So it's a half hour later than the title says? (but if I understand, we will start setting up at 9?)

Actually, Inesdar made it early, so we can do it at 9am EST.

How do I join the chatting group? Haha. I've never used skype before. I tried to add Tim but he hasn't added me back

Whoah, so like one minute from now? Ok. *Opens Skype*

Elanor, what's your skype name? I've added all the requests sent to me, but don't see yours.

Try adding me.

You just added me now Tim so all is cool! Thank you. Sorry if I sound confused.

I think I just added you too Jay did I?

Tim, I don't think you have me either. My name there is just elanhil...

Um, do y'all need me in this chat? I just remembered I'm the prayer admin so if y'all want me to get on skype I can.

eruheran

Go ahead and log into skype, and we will see if we can get you in. Add us.

That was fun! This thread can be archived now, right?

What do you all think about posting this chat? At two hours, the editing will take me forever to get it to standard for our podcast. Can we post it in the forums or should I create a blog just for storing the file online so I can put a link in the forum? I don't want to move discussion of the HWCS off of the forums, so that blog would just be for storing recordings.

Hold off on archiving it just yet.

Just attach it to a post, should work fine.

Okay, I will post it somewhere in the Triterrus forum.

Sorry I wasn't able to make this. Thanks for posting the transcript elsewhere - I shall have to read it soon.
