So I'm sure you all know of the Coaster Crazy Chat. I've found that it is barely used which is quite sad considering it is a lot of fun as pretty much anything goes. I'm proposing a chat revamp in which we set aside times for everyone to meet and chat.

Why?
If any of you have ever been in the chat you will know that it can get pretty funny and out of control at times. Also, you can talk about anything here and just go crazy if you want to. The chat usually never has people in it and there are many people here who would love to use it more often.

How?
My suggestion is to set aside special "chat meetings" in which anyone from this site can participate. We can plan to have one at different times every week and try to accommodate those in different time zones as well. I have included a poll for time zones to help us plan these out. These meetings can last for as long as you guys want them to last.

Upcoming Meetings
-Friday 5/29 at 7 PM EST/6 PM CST/5 PM MT/4 PM PST/11 PM GMT/12 PM BST
--If you would like this to be either earlier or later please say something.

PLEASE MAKE SUGGESTIONS FOR UPCOMING MEETINGS!!!! This idea will only work if we get input from you guys. I don't want to plan a meeting and have no one show up.

Thanks for reading! :D

I think a win's-day meeting would be in order. Maybe at win-o-clock in the afternoon, EST?

It's okay. We're probably all high or drunk or both on the chat anyways.

So let's confirm this Friday. What time do you guys want to do?

I hope that issue where if 13 people are in chat, it crashes, is fixed.

Well, we may as well put the roll feature to use, and play a little game.
Like maybe a roll tournament. Everyone rolls, and the highest wins. If two people have the same roll, and they are both the highest, they roll again, and the highest of that wins an internet cookie.

If I can score E I'll be rolling, but regardless, I'm always the highest 8-)
