Default Re: NEXUS 2012 event announcement

I just realized that what astralwalker suggested is another really strong candidate - a way of getting everyone possible focused in on a single event - we can do rotations of time scheduling every three months.

For weekly events, it's actually possible to do another layer of rotations that remains in sync with the monthly rotation as well. And it could all synchronize fairly well to the lunar calendar too I think.

So if the region times are considered as A (morning), B(evening), and C(night), a month could have four weekends of rotating patterns, ie:

1: ABC
2: BCA
3: CAB
4: ABC

Then the next month would start with BCA, and the following month with CAB.

Hehe... I'm starting to realize something funny, and it's not surprising at all: this would work wonderfully well if we were using the Mayan calendar!!!

But no, we are stuck with this crazy calendar!

Oh well, maybe something to this effect can be worked out.

After some thought, I really like the idea of finding some way to synchronize absolutely everyone together, especially in the beginning when we'll in all likelihood have the smallest group of all.
