That would give us more

Submitted by Ardea-Lepp on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 10:19.

That would give us more overlap with Hamfist... which may eliminate the Ham-alt option.

Tuesday is fine for me and it may open more possibilities of Saturday fun runs/mAlts

Submitted by Atar on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 10:23.

If anything I think both raids running the same nights will be better.  Plus, like you said, it would open up the whole weekend for our raiders to do fun stuff inside or out of WoW.

Submitted by Dufe on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 10:25.

Part of this concept is that with both raids in BT, there can't be any raider swapping anyway - other than Hamfist alts (Nyluna, Luchs, etc) coming in, but we avoid that and it rarely happens anyway.  Plus we've only ever needed them on Saturday anyway, as that's our most poorly attended night.  By overlapping schedules more, we would intentionally introduce more common off nights with Hamfist where Mag/Gruul, MC/BWL, SSC/TK, or whatever else you can think of could potentially be run with members of both raids pitching in.

I personally would LOVE to switch Saturday for Tuesday.  I like the idea of opening up more time on the weekends for fun stuff, RL or for LF1M and Hamfist raiders to do more things together.

I do not need convincing,

Submitted by Ardea-Lepp on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 10:43.

I do not need convincing, you know that I am all for alt healing as much as possible.  =p

Getting the main raids done early does open a lot of possibilities... makes it sound like I just want to get them over with which is not the case...

My only concern for the time

Submitted by pulga on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 11:01.

My only concern for the time being is that Tues-Wed-Thurs for me as a highschooler could get a bit much, since I'm east coast and already wake up tired on Thursday and Friday.  Another concern is scheduling my job around it.  If we do make the switch, I'd need at least 2 weeks to guarantee a free tuesday night.

I'll stay out for the most

Submitted by garreth on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 11:12.

I'll stay out for the most part here because this is an LF1M decision, but if we had a completely clear saturday, I'd start leading a Vashj+Kael kill on Saturday nights.  NOT an alt run -  main run for legit upgrades from both bosses.

Also, more than a few of our people need their Al'ar and Fathom kills.  I'd be doing those as well on this night, but not really any other bosses.  The goal would be to kill these things as fast as possible with a good mix of both LF1M and Hamfist hardcore raiders.

mAlt Gruul would still run on Sundays like usual :)

I'm really kinda sketchy

Submitted by Derchlon on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 11:54.

I'm really kinda sketchy about moving to Tuesdays.  Yeah, I could do it for awhile, but I would prefer not.  At least for the next two weeks.  I'm going to hold off on my vote, as I'm not really a yes or no right now.

One of the few nights outside of raid that I get to just hang out with people, so Tuesday is going to be a hard one for me to let go of.

As far as RL goes, I'd rather have the Saturday night free.  With it being a weekend, it's more likely that RL friends will be free as well.

One thing to ask, does it have to be Tues? Would Fri, Sun, Mon be up for consideration?

Atar is unavailable Mon/Fri,

Submitted by Dufe on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 12:03.

Atar is unavailable Mon/Fri, so that leaves Tues/Sun.  I think there is already alot of established stuff on Sun + people would still have work/school the next day - diminishing much of the advantage if might have had over Tues.

Honestly, this is a great

Submitted by Captnopants on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 12:36.

Honestly, this is a great idea, but it would have it's disadvantages. To raid, I need to go over to my dad's house, where the internet is stable and disconnect-free. So I'm over here Wednesday night, Thursday night, and the rest of the weekend. With Tuesday being moved to a raid day, I wouldn't be able to go to my dad's house to raid, meaning I may or may not have frequent disconnections (I don't know what's up with the internet. It drops often, and I don't know how to fix it. It's Comcast, btw.)

If it stays as a Saturday raid, I can't promise that I'll be able to make it every week. As a high school student, and a happy boyfriend, I can't spend the only free time that we both have on the computer, which I'm sure all of you perfectly understand.

Once summer comes, and I have all of the free time in the world, neither of these days will be a problem for me.

edit: OH! And I probably won't be able to make the week of finals. Last year, me not playing WoW that week greatly improved my desire to study and in turn improved my semester average.

 P.S. I voted yes.

If we did it on Tuesdays then I will be 100% available to those raids. So I think this idea is great!

Submitted by Thezoo on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 13:32.

I personally would love to move it to tuesday night. Summer's coming up, friends are coming home, plus my sunday morning commitments get earlier and earlier it seems (this week it was a 7:30 AM report time for an east coaster >.<). Making the LF1M/Hamfist raids overlap would also open up alot of possibilities.

I vote yes, as long as we can all keep focused for 3 straight nights of raiding it will be a great change.

For those that said no, please state your reasons.  I  would like as much feedback as poopible.  I for one, want it on Tuesday so Saturday can be my social time.

This is great guys.  Keep it coming.  I'm sure it would be one or two weeks before we would establish this move.  We'll talk about it more in raid to see how you guys feel about it.

Submitted by Chief Tenbears on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 21:54.

   Not that this matters to anyone else but free Saturday nights would make me very happy. I like the idea of the weekend to myself. Maybe we could pick it back up in the winter hours when it's no fun to walk your dog, have moonlit strolls with wifey or just party it up in the real world. Ya know? Unplug a bit. Just a thought:)

I'm closing this poll

Submitted by Atar on Fri, 04/25/2008 - 05:17.

I'm closing this poll down.  It's done.  I'm making it official now. 

OUR NEW RAID SCHEDULE WILL NOW BE TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY.  STARTING NEXT WEEK ON APRIL 29TH!!!

So next week it'll be like this:  4/29, 4/30, 5/1  and we are done with raid.  Sign up and be online.

That's 3 straight nights of raiding, and it gives us 4 nights off in a row.  This is going to be amazing.

We'll now have time to do stuff as a guild on Saturdays which could be a really strong move for us.  It would be great to have some SSC/TK runs, or an Under City raid, or MC/BWL/Naxx fun runs. 

This may take a week or two to get used to, but it's totally doable.
