And a date xD

I propose December 12th, and I recommend Discord, because it's both easy and proven.

I think a few of us mods, and perhaps some lucky guests should get voice rights in the main channel, otherwise it'll be bedlam.
But what do we do?

MCM trivia perhaps? (answered by text in the channel)
Perhaps show some 'my crap car' submissions that didn't make it into the unicorn circuit?

Open to ideas

Okay so we have one participant. Two if you count me.
Yeah MCM trivia sounds cool, I can make a my crap car video if people are interested.

Hi everyone! I think that would be very cool!
Wouldn't it be funny if everyone who wants produced a 2-minute car video and we have votes for the funniest!
I am interested anyway!

Hell yeah! Good idea Zecke, count me in!

Does Discord support video chat? I've only used it for voice chat so far...

Absolutely, and screen sharing.

Starting to get some feedback, nice!
If a mod or admin could ask the boys if they're down for it that would be maaaad!

Also, is the setup of the discord server a mod/admin duty or do I do that as the meet organiser?

Hi lads, I’d be interested in this as well, provided I can find the time. Any ideas about the time of day?

Hmm, finding a common ground for Europe and Australia... tricky

According to my calculations, Dec 12th 18:00 in aussie time is Dec 12th 8:00 in euro time. Any objections?

Helloooooo

I've been so absent recently I've missed loads!

Yeah 1800 AEST would be 0700 GMT and the 12/12/20 is a Saturday so that's also fine by me.

I could email Marty and see what he thinks, if

Master_Scythe hasn't already done so.

I'll maybe ask Marv too if he wants, his car knowledge is insane too.

I guess if you're organising the meet, then you'd be the one to set it up. I dont even have discord lol but I'm sure it'll be straight forward to set up.

7am is very early on a Saturday morning... How about pushing it forward 2 or 3 hours, still wouldn’t be very late in the evening in Oz?

Alright I'll get to it then. Filmed my crap car segment today!

Oh right you're an hour ahead in ireland. Starting an hour or two late is fine with me, any objections from the AUNZ folks?

I've spoken to Marv, he's going to ask around and see who's free on the 12th December

I have a Discord server configured.

While the webpage version works fine, I highly do suggest the App, if we're going to have voice and video content on the day.
