Hey guys! So, here's the poll. I'll let people vote on ONE map. This list is based on the suggestions in the discussion thread and what I remember from steam chat.

By voting though, I need to know when (in the next 2-3 weeks) you are free the most to do this testing. We'll probably need 3 or more hours worth of data.

Thanks! I'll announce the date when I think there is a good idea of peoples schedules. Lets make this good!

None of my maps are there.

/boycotts poll

(You don't actually want my vote since I doubt I'd be able to play, and I haven't played any of those maps in the last 6 months, if ever)

On a different note, I have a modified heatmap plugin for hiding spots for TNG. It would be nice to collect data for this at some point, too. :)

Yeah, I'd like to point out that US gameday time is pretty much the latest that EUs can spend 2-3 hours doing stuff. If it was say, an hour or two earlier than that, we could have a good spread of Americans and EUs over the course of up to like 4 or 5 hours. Let me do the math:

OK, so I'm suggesting around 3-4PM EST and 8-9PM BST/GMT. For days, I'd be guessing a Saturday as per usual and I personally prefer it next weekend or the weekend after, if that's not too early (31st/7th).

Mondays and Tuesdays are the best for me. Evenings on weekends work fine too, but like someone mentioned earlier, it'd be best to get a time that works for EU as well.

Well ideally the EU people could play for 2 hours or so until the Americans get home and then they can take over for another 2 or three hours after we go to sleep.

Half a Lambert is better than one.

I've got final exams all through next week, so any time after that in terms of date would be best for me.

As for time, it makes the most sense to me to start it at peak EU time (6:30PM or something) and just run for six hours, and start calling in US players once the EU populous begins to dwindle.

Any time after 4PM EST usually works for me. I'd prefer in a week or two at least so I have time to get a new version ready.

Dates I'm not available:
June 5th, 13th, 14th, 26th, 27th, 28th
I'd prefer not on a Saturday if possible.

Mondays and Tuesdays work best for me. I could play the entire marathon if it was one of those. Other than that, yeah anytime after 6PM EST I'm available.

Are we going to do this again this year? 2015?
