PC Gaming - Deprecated 2009-14 - [Run By: Pfkninenines]

Alright, CS:GO is officially out! We're seriously considering it for a new game of the week due to the server capabilities and general familiarity, so it'd be great to get a headcount of current owners. For $15, it's not a terrible deal, and I'd hope we could get enough interest to deprecate CS:S.

I don't own it

Although I meant to get it during the presale I do NOT own it, but if it joined the rotation and stayed around the same price I would probably get it.

In the words of some French dude...

I've obtained a copy, although it cost me about the same as preordering it, just in TF2 items.

I've got an 8am course this semester on Monday, and 9:30 on Tuesday, so I'm really not looking forward for 10pm PC Gaming night (at least in my timezone anyway). At least not on Monday night. I'd be looking to either move the time to a few hours earlier, change to Tuesday, or even potentially do a combination of the two.

Regarding changing days, I don't have classes Wednesday, so the current time would work for me if we transitioned to Tuesday instead of Monday.

Regarding timing, I know there are many people currently in school (or who have jobs) who can't attend at the current time. Moving it even one hour earlier would often allow those individuals to attend. Since Shane and all of the Mountain Time Zone (or similar) members are eating dinner often around these times, I'm not sure if the time can be changed too drastically.

Also, it looks like ~7 of my Rsbandb friends on Steam Community own CS:GO, so I'd assume 7-10 people in the group own CS:GO. This should be enough for games, especially if more people end up purchasing now that it's officially released and it looks quite doable to host as a server.

I wouldn't mind moving it to Tuesday. My day where I do nothing is on Wednesday this school year

DO IT

If we add CS:GO for next week (which I'm hoping to do) I'll put up a different poll for next week regarding day/time changes, and we'll play CS:GO next week.

At any rate, hopefully we can get some discussion going on. I'll post in our Steam Community group page, so hopefully we can get a decent bit of talk about these two issues.

I voted for the first option. I feel like that would be the best for me.

Earth · **Posted:** August 28th, 2012, 4:19 pm

One hour earlier at most if we do it on Monday please

Pfkninenines · Global Moderator 12/4/08

NOTE -- We moved back to 10pm EST. See the updated information on the initial thread.

I like the new time change (back to the old time). It looks like you got CS:GO running too!

Pfkninenines · Global Moderator 12/4/08

We're going to try it again, both the time and CS:GO. CS:GO was always working there have just been complications in the startup time for the server, and general usability since we don't have any mods installed. Hopefully it'll be more usable by the next time it gets voted as the game of the week.

Need more people. If anyone else from BandB can make it, please do try.

Maybe invite some friends, too.
