Since we cannot (yet) create a real-time game, I have a (hopefully) feasible solution:

YOu are wrong ... pay the $25 and you can play all the "real time" games you like ... they are called SPEED GAMES!!!

Why should Lack make special accomodations for those who just want to use the site for free. Most sites with memberships don' t allow freebies anywhere near the access here.

Frankly, I know I am not the only PAID member who is more than a bit tired of freebies who insist we ought to play "real time" games just becauset they don't want to pay $25.00

If I happen to have the time, I will play "real time", but if not .. PAY or don't complain!!!!

Hey most of us never asked lack for a speed game alternative, but for us who are scabby or simply unable to pay for any number of reasons, there is no reason why we should not make a thread like this, dont be a total prick! yeah asking for more is too much, buts its a dam tiny minority of freemiums that have the neck to ask for more. so get down of your little gay high horse and get the hell out of this forum. Its a great idea for us to try, and for zorba_ca to try do something about it. We arnt demanding any resource, we are simply using what we have(which is an awful lot-thanks lack) to make our experience more enjoyable.

And i dont think there are many people here apart from you that would hold that against us!

But going back to my question, is there going to be a a standard time for this forum?

eg. Gmt or GMT+5.....

Or if not can everybody instead say something like 2 hours from now(which would be the time of the post) to the nearest hour mark say?

wow...way to bump a completely dead and rotting thread.
its been like 2 years! and wicky, you aswel?
dont people know that another form of realtime is called a speed game?

but anyway...rt forum...yea...go to live chat..

yeah, it would be of great use and benefit to freemiums that don't want to pony up for the speed game option that comes with premium membership. however, how much effort does the site truly want to put into keeping freemium members happy? they already have more access on this site, than i have ever seen on any other site. when i was a freemium, i was shocked that i had access to all the maps and all the game options, i thought lack was a fool.. but, once i got hooked, i knew he was a genius...-0

This isn't a bash freemies thread guys.

BC, before chat, the callouts forum was used mostly for setting up RT games. Most would just post a thread when they wanted to play. Some did try to set it up beforehand at a "certain time," but it worked best just to make a thread at the time. Some people still use the callouts forum, but most do use callouts in live chat. Use whichever you want; they're both available for ya.

Hmmm.. Just thought of a suggestion... why not see if [time] tags could be added to the bulletin code?
*heads off to suggs & bugs...

why not just go on live chat?
