QL Party

[AKryztov]

I'd like to host a QL Party sometime in the next week or two. I am planning on doing about 20 greens, a few blues, and as many Reds as I can. I would appreciate any participation from forum members, and any advise would also be great since this is my first QL launch. If anyone else would like to add any QLs please send me a message, so I can arrange a good time for everyone. Thanks

It would be good to be involved in your QL Party of three colours, once you know how many neighbours are interested, you can then plan for and structure the event, otherwise it would become a free-for-all. You will also attract interest from members who are currently not neighbours with you. Be prepared for a possible flood of interest.

Forgot to mention the best and most succesful QL Parties are when they are structured and controlled by the person who opens them. Also a thread will be needed so you can communicate with those taking part, and those who express an interest in taking first seat on some of the flights.

I'd love to join but I need more details with regards to date and time, I'll probably join with 2 accounts and a ql.

 

[cazmillon]

[Asondh]

Since this will be our first QL Party, and because our main game (AKryztov) has a lot of none forum members, we think it best to launch from my wife's game (Azure). All those who want to participate please make sure that she is your neighbor. We're thinking of having the party sometime this coming week (or next weekend). Please let us know your preferred days and times. We would prefer this party to be orderly, and not the usual "whoever reaches 576 first gets 1st position". Any suggestions on a more orderly method of assigning places so everyone can have a chance at a few nice 1st place rewards?

When is this happening ?

 

[salars]

Sounds really good ! I’m generally ok during the week. Uk times afternoons work well.will it be Green or blue launches or red ?

 

[Tom0404]

Hey I’m up for it and can contribute a QL...I work full time so only have max 5 hours in evening UK time. Thursday 21st might be best for me, I’ve got afternoon off.

 

[crescent moon (RIP)]

Unfortunately I can't commit to any specific time or date, but I will be happy to offer QL support when I can, and take low positions. Generally speaking, my best time for launches is 1500 - 1800 UTC, and I activate QLs Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. (California PDT). I'll watch for your posts and join when I can. I'm not available on Sundays from 1700 til Monday 1700.

 

[Asondh]

I am done with red launches for the moment , as I participated in quite a few QL,s earlier this week. But I can contribute with around 50 launches of Blue and Green combined and will be happy to take lower positions .
Thanks for the party in advance

 

[Teboho]

I don't necessarily to be captain on any launch, but I'll hang in there some where at the back with a ql.
At any moment when you need me to add more, just let me know.

For a more orderly way to conduct the party:
confirm the time and day
set out the rules
make a captain's list

 

[Awesomerowend]

I would be interested.

I think it would be best if you work around what times work best for you, set the points for top 3 places and a maximum points for the others (if you want more participants per launch)

Also, if you set it up based on the time (UTC) at which the pad will open , you can assign the color as well as the captain for each pad open time.

You can allow 10min gaps for a 3QL launch and 20mins if its only 2. That should remove some of the uncertainty caused by variable load times.

Just my 2c.

I'm happy to provide support during the 24 hour QL Party, I have no interest in first place. I intend to pace myself across the duration. I have no preferred days or times. I'm happy to go with what works for you. I look forward to the event, when you are ready.

It will also be important to know how many of each colour (green, blue, red) you are planning to launch, across a 24 hour QL Party. Not all those wishing to take part, may have all three space vehicles.

If this is your first time, I’d recommend that you consider using an experienced neighbour to either a) start each launch or b) coordinate who does what. Work as a team, especially if you intend to run more than one account. Things will get busy!
On a different note, start ditching non forum neighbours. Hijacks are the worst. You might feel obligated to them, but they’ll never know . You’ll also replace them, very quickly, with as many as you like from here.

Hello

That's some good sound advise, I have considered help. Just the logistics of planning this is a bit overwhelming. With regard to non-forum members, I will likely ditch most of them; but there are a few who have proven to be respectful during launches and good gifters that I'll still keep. It's a shame that I can't tell them about the forum, they would make good forum members.
