As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

MoT Members' Social Distance Summit Scheduling Poll

Post by MoT »

Now that we have some pretty good interest in a virtual meet-up, let's start hammering out preferred days and times.

My thought is to have it at approximately 8:00pm Central, as it's not too late for the Eastern time zone, nor is it too early (maybe?) for the Mountain and Pacific time zones.

I'm aware this leaves non-North America members in a tough spot, but maybe we can do an "Overseas Edition" soon as well.

Vote in the poll above.

Great idea. Although I doubt I can make it due to my work hours.

Maybe a Thursday/Friday evening could be possible.

I hope this turns out to be a success!

Feel free to spitball a time that would work. The 8:00pm Central thing isn't set in stone.

That happened to me for the last poll. Sounds fun and I'd love to partake, but 6:00 p.m. (my time) is smack dab in the middle of dinner prep and then I roll straight into the kids bedtime routine after dinner. Having kids takes up pretty much all of your time... but they're pretty awesome so I'll cut them a break.

I don't know how old your kids are, but FWIW I fully expect my 3yo and 5yo to partake in the summit in some form of fashion.

[mention]ManOnTime[/mention] Not sure if this is an option, but would it make sense to allow folks to cast multiple votes? For example, given the options I would prefer Saturday evening, but if push came to shove I would try and make it during a different slot.

Mine are 1 and 3, and I'm sure the 3 year old would love to partake. Great idea!
