If it's done via Skype call, I'll try to fix my webcam. If that doesn't work out I'll be there in voice and a silly picture.

We'd all need a Skype premium account for a video-conference, so I'm guessing it'll just be audio :)

How many people are allowed to video chat without one? Is it just two?

Just the one under current rules. It used to be possible but then money.

Aww, that sucks! If it was multiple I thought we could take turns having the cams on depending on who was a nominee.
I'll just wait for the video. I don't even have a webcam to show myself watching this.

It's on the weekend, so easier for people to... skype in. Also, time of day. I trying to think of a time that will work across all the time zones. Suggestions?

Yay! That's the weekend I have off! Only thing is, unless it's going to be a late night awards ceremony, I know GameWizard001 won't be able to attend since he gets off work at 9PM.

How about that Saturday I have the cartoon stream I've been wanting to do since both days are super fun? How many people could attend on March 1st?

Awww shucks, thanks for helping me out.

That's sounds fun too. I could use a break and a distraction from work right now.

Apparently there's not going to be any hot webcam action on this one.

And thus, people never saw my face.
So, I just checked, and I will be able to save audio and video with Open Broadcaster System, so we should have multiple people recording if something fails.

Anyone know anything about this? It says up to 12 people can chat at once for free. I have to actually leave for work in two minutes so I don't have time to investigate.

That is something we must investigate. Also, we need to just get a head count if you plan on coming Saturday, in case we have over 12 people and therefore can't use that program. Also, I am cutting off all voting tomorrow night, 6 P.M. Eastern Standard Time so as to have time to tally up votes before Saturday. That will also give some time for our super mod team to vote in the case of a tie.

Thank you everyone for helping support this!

Yep, 3pm central.
I'll make a little info-sheet that I'll post this afternoon :)
I'll be there. Just tell me where to go. I won't be able to record it though D:
I really should actually vote... But on that note, what's the proper format? I remember the original discussion involved ranking them 1-X where X was your first choice, for the sake of adding them up as points. The PM, however, stated the opposite. How would you like this done?

Oops, sorry. I guess that PM was a bit confusing. Just rank your top as your number 1. I'll just add it all up so that lowest overall score is the winner (like Golf, except way cooler!)
