Talking about the appeal of the books in the Library, we agreed that one of the great things about it are the details, and the fun we can have playing trivia with them. So I thought why not have one in the chatroom as well.

The rules will be the same as in Middle Earth Quiz Game!!!!!!! (http://www.warofthering.net/forums/vbulletin225/upload/showthread.php?s=&threadid=193&perpage=15&pagenumber=18) (the one who gets the answer asks the next question) with the only difference that it'll be in the chatroom which means it'll move faster and be more fun (:

Of course to do it proper, we'll need some people and with the different timezones we have here we might need to discuss the time a bit. My idea is Saturday, from say 7pm GMT, but we can change that (:

So do you like the idea? And the time?

Hmmm well I'm not quite sure..... For Mountain daylight savings (whatever that is eek) it's 1pm, that's what I figured....

It's 2.20am in GMT right now if it helps

Okay, if you check in your options you can see what's the difference between your time and GMT

oh, okay... yeah, now i can do that math ;)

it's about a 7 hour difference. (it's 9:32 pm here) So that means... that when it's 7pm your time, then it'll be 2am here! :o

hm... well then... if we did it 11:00am your time, it'll be 6:00pm my time. Or even 1:00pm your time, 8:00pm my time :) maybe something like that :huh:

EDIT: okay, wait a minute... i didn't calculate the AM/PM thing grr! let me think... oh, okay it's only 5 hours difference... which means 7pm your time, midnight my time... you can fix the other times accordingly ;)

hm... maybe we could have more than one session... each at different times so if some people can't do it at one time, then they could always join a different one later :huh:

Sounds interesting. I should be available at 2pm (EST). Not sure, but I'll come if I can make it.
May I ask how long would it run?

Well, actually i think we're trying to figure that out right now. We're thinking of having it on Saturday, but are trying to figure out timezones and when everyone could be there at a convenient time. You're in the same timezone as I, Ithielnor...

aw I'm sorry Winnie.... stupid timezones.

Yup we can have more than one session, maybe the ones who can't come to this one can work out a time... it's ok with me it's not like I sleep or something hehe ;)

okay, well i had forgotten that was going away this weekend, but i'm back now. I probably missed the chat, but maybe we could work out another one? :huh: Can't be this weekend though... it would have to be either during the week this week, or next week, or next weekend (after the fourth)...
