Title: Official NWR WiFi Night - August, 2009

Now that I am happily wed, it's time to get the official monthly WiFi night back up and running again!  As usual, we'll kick things off with a poll to decide the day and a thread to collect game nominations.

The "can't do the same thing we did last month" rule is not in effect because it's been a while since we've done one. So, everything is game!

Vote for every day you are able to play and nominate as many games as you like.  The poll will run until Friday, July 24th.


Official WiFi Night Rules and Procedures

The process is made of four sequential threads that will show up (stickied) in this forum.

Thread 1: Day voting and game nomination. Users will vote for all days that they are able to play on in a poll. Thread responses will collect game nominations.
Thread 2: Game voting. A poll that consists of each game that was nominated in the previous thread. Players each vote for as many games as they are willing and able to play on the day that was selected in the previous thread
Thread 3: Friend code collection. All (and only) participating players will post their friend code for the chosen game in this thread. This is so people can start updating their friend lists ahead of time.
Thread 4: Gameplay chat thread. This thread shows up on the day of and is used to chat about the action as it is happening.

There are only a few special rules regarding this process.

The same game can not be chosen for two consecutive months. This will force us to experience at least a little bit of variety.

The same day of the week can not be chosen for two consecutive months. People often have regular work schedules that keep them from playing on certain days. It would suck for them if one of those days was chosen every single month.

This should go without saying, but all forum rules apply to every thread involved in the WiFi night.  Don't be a jerk.

Aw, I don't think I'm going to be able to make this one. Don't pick Mario Kart Wii as the game!

Don't worry, I'm going to be pushing for more Conduit action.

But I don't like The Conduit and want to play Mario kart Wii!

Also nifty logo.

Pro, I missed you when you were gone on vacation. :)

BTW
If it wasn't obvious earlier, my I'm nominating Conduit. Just thought I'd state it for the record.

**** The Conduit.  You guys already play that every night and you have your own Wi-Fi night.  Mario Kart 4 Life.

I actually haven't played it the last few days. I've been more on an AC kick and after I'm done with that I've gone to bed instead of staying up late to play Conduit.

Mainly been having a match or two while I've been experimenting with settings & such myself. Learned some new things in the process.

I haven't played in about a week. I have been playing Rock Band.

I'm going to nominate Super Smash Brothers Brawl so you all can play that if I'm not around.

Forget The Conduit.  You guys already play that every night and you have your own Wi-Fi night.  Mario Kart 4 Life.
My thought semi-exactly.

If Mario Kart Wii doesn't get chosen then I might try putting together an unofficial Wi-Fi night. I have some ideas which might make for interesting GPs...

Hmmm..  The conduit.  While people have been playing I have yet to play with more than one person at a time..   I will go for FRIDAY
Although, i like DBZ BT3 and can suffer if a lil lag happens.


Why not a marathon of gaming.  I.e.   go from one game to the next.   kinda like a wide spread tourny?

Take the number of votes of the winning game and multiply it by 0.25.  That will be the number of people who actually show up to play.

Half a person will show up? Where is his other half?
