Fooville Day 26

Hello, everybody. After a long time of no Fooville, day 26 is finally on the way. How soon is "on the way"? This week! Here's the question. I need to know what date works best for you guys. It would have to be Tuesday or later (Monday doesn't work for me). I was thinking of having it be at 2:00 PM. I live in Washington state, so it's up to you foos to buy a calculator and do the math involving time zones. Because I'm lazy. Tell me if this is a bad time. If you like, tell me if it's a good time. Anyway, vote in the poll.

For anyone who doesn't know what Fooville is, here is a quick explanation. Fooville is a hotel level for JJ2. But not just your average ordinary hotel level. Fooville is completely automated. How is this different from a normal hotel, you ask? There is no need for you to wait for the host to allow you into the shop. When you get enough coins to buy something, you go buy it, no questions asked. This is done all by a program created by Overlord and myself. While Fooville has the usual things you'd expect in a hotel such as showers, beds, televisions, and the usual household appliances, you will also find many Foo Products related goodies.

Last thing I want to say before the end of this post: I will be editing this post soon with a link where you can download the tileset and music for Fooville. No matter who the host is, they will not look kindly on having huge download lag because people were too dumb to download a .zip file. You've been warned.

Hmm thats around 4-5 o' clockish for me, living in Georgia.
I say Tuesday, since my schedules open all week(so it doesn't really matter, so I choose Tuesday. The day of no logic)

Whee, fooville. A Saturday seems better to me, since more people would be open, and you can play more, and such. Plus, the server could be open longer, so to me, it seems like a win-win situation.

Saturday. Most likely you will host this in the middle of the night (I'm from Finland) so I can actually stay up the Saturday - Sunday night.

FS, I was thinking about just that. The only positive to hosting it on a day when AB is taking place is that a lot of people would be playing and the level would have a much larger audience. Right now I am thinking that either Thursday or Saturday would be best.

I must say though, the chance that it would be hosted on time for AB7 depends on how quickly whoever is updating can finish, which may or may not be soon. Let's hope they have enough time to finish it soon though.

As I said, there may be other "events" related to the Anniversary Bash, you may not appriciate what would happen if you host Fooville at the time one of them is on. You do remember that one time Violet hosted his hotel at the time a JDC event was hosted right?

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday are all very bad choices, because you live in America. I (and many others in Europe) can stay up the Friday and Saturday nights, but NOT tuesday - thursday nights. Or you can host it next week, when there is no AB7.

FINAL DATE DECIDED:
Next Saturday, the 16th.

There are several reasons for the delay.
1) I am adding new features and minigames
2) This weekend I will be visiting Spay (excellent!)
3) Arby's Melts are 5 for 5 dollars.

So what time it will be on? 2:00 PM? (I recommend doing it a few hours earlier. That way it's the middle of the day for Americans, and NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT for europeans!)
