Yeah, there's been enough posturing to get things moving. Saturday 9 am would be cool, but I guess we'll wait until noon.

Rather wait a week myself as announcing the official start of a server should be done at least 7 days in advance.  Otherwise you might catch some players not ready for the start.  Kitties need to get a strategy pow wow together still for opening moves.  Go with the 30th.

I cannot start the week of the 28, my internet access wil be shaky at best as I am moving

If this does not go live on July 23, it waits 2 weeks minimum.

Although I must point out (4 Chuut yesll at me again..oh the hurtful PM's I get) that I'm not a RM
I am (kinda) a player.
Start the 23rd, with a campaign of this length it won't really matter if somepeople aren'te here for the start anyway.
Heck I migh not fly for the first week or so.

You hosting this server?  If so would it be wise to do so on such a shaky connection?  Better to wait till you are stable again.  If its not hosted on your equipment shouldn't really matter if we start the 30th.

Anyhow I'd say wait as we are still working out rules stuff.

Get some early era hair on your nads Hexx  ;)

But definately don't want to be running on an iffy system like Die Hard implies.  I think more time for an official announcement is required as well.

When I got roped into RM'ing, they told me it was going to start on the 23rd, so it was released some where.

From an extremely selfish perspective, my Eco War window is getting narrow.  The sooner you can start the better for me.  (And really, who matters more than me?)

Unless you are volunteering to handle the last minute technical shake out issues and inevitable first week tech glitches then it most certianly does matter that DH has a stable connection the first week of the server.

Chuut you seem to give the impession that servers just majically configure and run themselves.  :rant:

I'm not hosting it but I'm admining it.  It doesn't start if I do not have reliable internet connection at home.   Period.

Tis a 30 (or so) day server your Rmness.
The opening strategy will consist of me sitting in general chat crying
that my ship doesn't have 40+ power and 10Ph1's

The server will pick up people as we trundle along. Given the def values and
with all races haveing droners it will come down to who can put the most peeps on the server in the last week or two.
