Ok Team,

Let's talk Team Online Chat. When would be a good day and time for everyone to meet in either a MSN or AIM chat room for Q & A, random silliness and other insanity we are famous for ?

well, let me think.....

tues, thur & fri are out...tue & thur I'm at my martial arts class & fri is of course stargate...so pretty much any time other than those...I have been meaning to get in on the chat that dan has on wend...

Ok, how does Monday night or Sunday night strike folks ?

Sunday is cool for me, I work Monday nights

Sunday or Monday would be great, I work swing shift and those are my days off.

Alrighty,

We are narrowing the field down here fairly well. Let's talk Sunday nights...... everyone else ???

I work sunday and monday nights

Ok, the three thoughts that come next are:

How does Sunday afternoon sound ?

How does Wed night sound to folks ?

How about having two different chats ?

Yeah, this can be kinda time consuming to set up but we are looking to get the most folks possible in on the chat. While, in the end, we may not be able to get everyone, let's keep looking for the optimum set up. Hang in there gang, we're narrowing it down....

anytime sun/mon good for me....I off work on those days.

unless I get called in

Ok, how about we have the chat at...say, 1900 hours Sunday night, with a recap and secondary chat Wed night at 2000 hours ? Sound good ?

Ok, sound good to me..

and just in case, here is my MSN messenger, samurijames@hotmail.com

Sounds good... I should be able to make it most Sunday's. What will the chats be conducted on AIM, Yahoo IM or MSN Messenger?

Which anyone have any preferences ? Personally, I like AIM chat.

I have this complete aboration about having anything do with AOL on my computer...

yahoo, I'll have to get...

but if the majority want AIM....I guess I'll have to get over it...So long as somebody can give me a link...and all I get is AIM...I had too many problems with AOL... they disgust me...but that is my opinion..

Well, I have no problem using MSN for the chat ! I just haven't used it very much in the past.

I prefer Yahoo IM, but I also use AIM every once in a while. I don't have MSN Messenger

I got Yahoo IM up and running now...so I now have it...

Alright, I am cool with using Yahoo chat. I believe I have used it a few times before. If no one has a problem with Yahoo, let's do our first chat this Sunday.

Cool! I have to work this Sunday, but I should be able to make all others.

No problem. We will have our recap chat on Wed. night for any and all that can't make it on Sunday or just want to get in on both chats !

That way you can have AIm, MSN, Yahoo,ICQ but not deal with the actual AOL software!!!!

Its what we use here at work.

One of our team members, Risk, said they use something very similar ! I never thought about that....thanks TK !

I work sunday night through thursday night. If anyone would be so kind as to email me the disscussion so I can respond, that would be wonderful.

(or just know what was said)

Well, I was thinking of having someone type up the major points in the chats and post them in the private forum for team members. That way if someone didn't make the chat, they can see what was talked about, respond or make it to the next chat, if they can.

That sounds like a great idea to me. Due to my rotating-shiftwork schedule, I can't guarantee that I'd be able to make any given chat window, and have never been a huge one for online chats anyways. Having the ability to peruse at least a basic synopsis of what was discussed and offer suggestions in our private team forum whenever we have a spare minute would make that less of a problem.

I would like to join in if I can,I know I am new but I would love be apart and anytime is good for me

The team chat will be open to any and all team members, both new and old. We will discuss topics of interest to all of SG-9.

Note: This chat will also be open to SG-Command.net SG-9 members !

Note2: A special invite will also be made for the Mama Duck, TL of SG-69 ! She is a good friend and always fun to have around !

Ok folks, the first team chat will be held tomorrow night (Sunday night) at 1900 hours. There will be a follow up chat on Wed night at 2000 hours. Finally, I will be posting up the highlights of the chat on the forum, for all to see and contribute, even if you miss the chats.

Tomorrow night, on Yahoo. I will be creating a chat on Yahoo. If you want to get in it, send me your Yahoo ID ASAP. You can email it to wildklingon@aol.com. My Yahoo ID is wildklingon2003.

This chat is open to ALL members of SG-9 in EITHER Scifihero.net or SGCommand.net. If you have any questions, just let me know via PM or email. Thanks !

I'll be there Riptide
I just sent you a thing over yahoo to add you to my list my yahoo id is col.wild

Well folks, the first SG-9 Scifihero.net/SG-Command.net Team Chat went great and we had a good time ! I finally figured the Yahoo chat system out, so it started a bit late but we got the bugs worked out and all is well. The follow up chat will be Wed night at 2000 hours and Thur. I will post the first minutes log on our Private forum and on Command.net. ALL team members are invited to attend. Simply email me your Yahoo ID at wildklingon@aol.com and I will add you to the invite list. Check the private forum Thur. for the minutes. Thanks to all who showed up and I look forward to chatting with many of you Wed. night !

the chat was great I had a blast chatting with you guys
I thought wed night was 2000 hours

Oops ! Ok, obviously I am up too late ! I edited my post to reflect the correct time. It is Wed night at 2000 hours. Thanks !

No prob riptide just keeping our leader on his toes lol

And don't forget folks, our TL (me), our ATL, our Public Affairs Officer (PAO), our Quartermaster (QM) and our Senior NCO will all be at Wed night's chat. So, come on out and meet everyone !

i'll be there

Just a reminder: Chat tonight at 2000 hours via Yahoo !

what day are we having the meeting this next week and what time

The chats will be every Sunday night at 1900 hours and every Wed. night at 2000 hours. We will hold to this schedule as closely as we can, unless a better suggestion gets tossed up !

cool see you there

Ok folks !!!

We had some issues with the last night chat that we are going to fix for the Wed night chat and onward. First, we are going to switch to MSN chat !!! Yahoo chat has played on my last few nerves and we are making a switch. I need everyone to PM/EMail/or post here their MSN ID so I can set up the invite list. Second, we are going to have a different policy for the chat. We are going to do the business first and then, after we are done, engage in the social banter and joking that we all like to have at these things ! Let's be realistic here, some folks only have very limited time to be in these chats and do not have time to listen to us "yak" back and forth and joking. So, to make sure ALL the team members have a chance to participate in ALL of the planning and team related topics of the chat, I ask everyone to stick to the business until we are done. Then, after the "official" part of the team chat, everyone can break down and be the hethans we all know and love . (This way, you won't hear....Sush David....Sush Rrok....Sush Everyone....like last time ) That is all ! I now return you to your regularly scheduled insanity, already in progress !

I know I posted my MSN during the chat...but just in case it gets lost here it is again

samurijames@hotmail.com

I enjoyed hanging out *smacks David* with SG-9 at the team chat last night was good to see a team that can truely play well with others *smacks David* thanks for having me

it was nice meet you mama duck *punches david*

It was great having you Mama Duck and you are always welcome at our chat !

Well,

The MSN chat went pretty well, I would say. A few folks had some internet trouble and were kicked off MSN but were able to jump right back into the chat, which is something they could not do with Yahoo. While we have to give up the voice function (which is right handy for me, I might add), we did gain a much higher degree of stability. I think this is the way to go for the time being. If anyone has any other thoughts, please let me know. Thanks !
