This is something that I know we've talked about on and off for a while but have never really made any decisions regarding which day would be best. So, the general idea is that I (no doubt other people too), have no idea when people *try* to go on PSN to play some fighters. This includes days of the week as well as time of day.
I know we all have our own commitments, some of which make our schedules pretty erratic and frankly unpredictable. But this is more of a scheduled time to try to be online to play. Unlike what we used to do where we went to someone's house to play GGXXAC, it's a lot easier to hop online for an hour or less or however long. There's no real commitment to being online at whatever time, but rather a time we all try to be there if we can so we don't always have to play against random people online. I think it'll help to get some more consistent practice (particularly for me) if I try to set some time aside to play.
Personally, I think Wednesday is good, probably sometime after dinner. Maybe 8 or 9? Also, should we continue to use steam for a chat client? Its a lot more fun (and frankly useful for getting instant feedback) when we can communicate with each other while playing/between matches. Vent is also an option. I think just using steam is probably the easiest just because we all already have and use it.
Actually when I think about it, maybe we'll figure out some time during the week and on the weekends where we'll try to be online? This doesn't really have to be limited to only fighters. It might make organizing AI wars games (or whatever other game) easier if we have some sort of expectations of when people would be available to play too, rather than trying to get everyone too agree to a day/time via individual text messages.
It's not like we're really committing ourselves to playing at these times, if you're free try to be online, otherwise it's not a big deal. Post whatever day/time where you tend to have free time.
