Stealth Stream
Added 2021-09-16 01:58:28 +0000 UTCI'll be doing a sneaky extra mid-week stream. It'll start as Patreon only for at least the first half hour, then open up to the masses.

At this point it's going to start at the usual time, but should I try an earlier stream at some point, and how many hours earlier?

1 hour earlier suits me, but I don't sweat it. If I need to hit the sack, I do exactly that.

2021-09-16 19:07:42 +0000 UTCYeah an hour earlier would make it start at 21:00 in the centre of the world. That would be nice.

2021-09-16 17:24:57 +0000 UTCAn hour earlier again for me but I do kind of feel sorry for your antipodean viewers

2021-09-16 15:47:23 +0000 UTCAn hour earlier will move the start time to 9 pm most of mainland Europe, that would be great. 2 hours earlier would be even better (but might be too early for UK participants).

2021-09-16 08:50:26 +0000 UTCThis is a nice surprise for today. I agree with other saying an hour earlier would be good, especially on a Thursday.

2021-09-16 07:38:44 +0000 UTCI'm off work Friday so I'll be there. Need to get a couple of bottles of red wine. Last Saturday I only had beer and I'm not a big beer drinker though I work for a beer company ๐ค

2021-09-16 07:37:18 +0000 UTCI'd agree, 1 hr earlier would work okay in both the UK and the Americas, but not any earlier or you'd come up against evening/midday meal times. Plus it would be just a little kinder to EUR as well, they being an hour or so of ahead of IOM time (nearly said UK!). But on balance I'd leave things as they are - starting earlier means keeling over into unconsciousness earlier, possibly an hour before the test card appears. Plus it's easier to lose participants by changing the time than it is to gain new ones that way.

2021-09-16 07:31:10 +0000 UTCMid Week streams are a bit late for me. An hour earlier would be good.

2021-09-16 06:15:59 +0000 UTCI've got no dog in this. I work graveshift, so I usually miss the streams unfortunately.

2021-09-16 05:51:48 +0000 UTCWould love an hour earlier, sometimes on a Saturday, usually I can only watch an hour live and them I'm asleep for work.
2021-09-16 05:22:22 +0000 UTCI'd prefer about 2~3hrs earlier as I'm struggling to stay awake past 9~10pm at night. It's 5am in the UK now & I've just got up for work.
2021-09-16 04:06:28 +0000 UTC6-8 hours earlier would be good for your Australian viewers
2021-09-16 03:13:10 +0000 UTCIt's hard to fit everyone in due to the timezone's around the world. The existing time was calculated for the largest percentage of channel viewers by location.

2021-09-16 02:46:55 +0000 UTCLongest was over 5 hours.
Big Clive
2021-09-16 02:45:26 +0000 UTCIt doesn't. There may have been slight issues with it as it's new. But it might be an idea to try it again.

2021-09-16 02:44:49 +0000 UTCI live in Finland and the stream starts usually at 11 PM Finnish time. So 3 to 4 hours earlier than usual would be just perfect.
2021-09-16 02:35:49 +0000 UTCThis would probably work well for a lot of folks in the Americas. I'm on the East coast and the stream starts at 4:05PM (GMT-5 DST). This time change would not impact me watching.
2021-09-16 02:24:37 +0000 UTCFor Eastern Canada things usually start 4pm and run until 7pm ... western Canada would be 1pm til 4pm .... both are convient but there is probably wiggle room.

2021-09-16 02:19:08 +0000 UTCYour streams start around 4AM in the night for me... not an ideal time to join. I'm probably in the minority there, though.

2021-09-16 02:18:50 +0000 UTCI'm in UK but it doesn't matter to me as long as we know. What's the longest one you've done Clive? Is there a time limit? Would it be creepy if we all watched you sleeping ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ

2021-09-16 02:17:58 +0000 UTCI think they are a good time for me here in the states, they end up being in the afternoon and easier to catch

2021-09-16 02:16:46 +0000 UTCRe: earlier stream: Given my timezone I would have to advise that the stream start a negative number of hours earlier. That is to say, it would have to actually be later for me to see it real time. Right now the streams are about as early as I can manage to wake up in the morning (and I often miss them due to needing more sleep). I'm in the minority in this regard but I just thought I'd throw in my two cents.
2021-09-16 02:15:22 +0000 UTCDoes this stream have the "only subscribers" chat enabled? I don't know what the option is called.
2021-09-16 02:13:49 +0000 UTCI feel bad for mentioning it. We figure it out and move on. Now I have a full day to prepare and plan my time.
2021-09-16 02:10:44 +0000 UTCI'll have to be "nicer" to meet the expectations of the main channel. Less likely to involve Bad Dragon references.

2021-09-16 02:07:25 +0000 UTCSame timezone. It really fits.
2021-09-16 02:06:54 +0000 UTCDoes this mean beverages and naughty language will be dialed down?

2021-09-16 02:05:51 +0000 UTCHaha, same
2021-09-16 02:05:03 +0000 UTCI'll edit it to avoid saying tonight. It always catches me out.
Big Clive
2021-09-16 02:05:00 +0000 UTCSelfishly, I like the current time during the week since I'm east coast US. It's right around the time I do my nightly walk at the park so I just throw in my ear buds and listen in.

2021-09-16 02:04:55 +0000 UTCDammit, I saw this and thought an extra stream? and it's now? Yippee!! .. but its only 10pm Wednesday Canuckistand time... :-(
