Should GW4 be offline on Thanksgiving?
« on: November 10, 2004, 03:25:24 pm »
Alright.  Lets decide this before we start.   If it does not run on Thanksgiving Day, I'll let it go until the following Sunday at Noon.

I'll go with the majority.  I just want it decided before we start.

How about we take it down for a few hours? Say 10 AM EDT to 10 PM EDT?

What DH said makes sense, but I'd expand it to midnight eastern.  That would allow east coast players to get rid of the family and play.  Many people have off or can arrance to be off that next Friday.

I agree.  Leave it up.  It's a day off, not a national day of being hen-pecked.
