3/12/09 IRC Hour


Greetings Community! Every 3rd Thursday of a month we have an IRC Hour for the community. Due to the popularity of last month's session and the buzz surrounding GDC, we are having 2 IRC Hours in March!

Where Is It?:
Server: irc.maxgaming.net
Channel: #GarageGames

What It Is: IRC Hour is a chance for the community to have real-time talks with GarageGames employees and our site admin, David Montgomery-Blake. We will be using the GarageGames IRC channel hosted by MaxGaming OnLine.

What It Isn't: Debugging other people's code, marathon one-on-one help sessions, soap-box rants, etc.

TheAgenda:

GDC Announcements (Demos, Interviews, and Video Streams)
Torque 3D Updates
Recent Game Releases
iTorque

Community Suggestions: Video playback in Torque products

Anything we cannot cover in this IRC Hour will roll over to the next one on 3/19/09.

To learn more about IRC Hour, provide suggestions, and get the transcripts, please go here: 2009 IRC Hour Discussion Thread.

BIG NOTE

We usually have IRC Hour at 5:00pm PST, and it's been very active.

Tonight's is happening at 3:00pm PST instead, by request of some of our European members. If less people will attend because it is 3:00pm, let me know now.

Michael, the summary on the blog page still says 5pm. Might want to change that ;)

Well, I was going to take the Christmas tree down tonight, but since I had a 14 hour travel day yesterday that probably wasn't going to happen. Now I have viable excuse.

Good lord...you still have your tree up Scott? Slacker =)

Glad you can finally make it to IRC Hour tonight.

Might as well leave that tree up for next Christmas.

I'm going to try and finally make this IRC hour. I even wrote it down, since as Cathy Ryan says, if you don't write it down it never happened. Whether or not I remember to look at what I wrote remains to be seen.

Nice gesture for those of us over here in Europe. I'll definitely be there this time.

I'll be a little late since I'll be in transit to my house when it starts. But I'll be there.

Sorry couldn't make it. Was still at work at that hour. Look forward to seeing the transcript though.
