So I got to thinking recently and thought it would be quite a nice idea to have game nights every so often on GTM, mainly free-to-play games like TF2, Cards Against Humanity or any other suggestion that people might make. Suggestions for improvements or feedback will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT:Added poll.
Rules:
1.The previous week's winner will not be put in the poll for the next week.
2.Game's must have a working multiplayer for more than 4 people.

i like this idea, we should set up a skype group. the only problem is time zones

I think that around 8 BST is probably the best time for it because that's wouldn't be stupidly late or stupidly early for most timezones, seeing as the most active timezones are America and European that would probably be the best time.

Pretty good idea. I also like Playzooki's idea, too. We can have skype groups. And you know what, we should have a GTM Gaming channel or something (that's just an idea). If possible, we could play games that some have already bought (Mario Kart 8, Call of Duty, Minecraft, ect.)

I'd recommend at Eastern Time (Toronto, Ontario's time), I'd do it at 7:00-10:00.

How far ahead/behind is eastern time to british time

Badnik96 · « **Reply #6 on:** July 08, 2014, 01:53:02 PM »

I believe it's 4 hours.

maybe we could alternate between uk and us time zones? i dont stay up until midnight.

I'd join this. The Skype thing does seem like a good idea. As for the gaming channel, if that was to be taken seriously, you'd need someone dedicated to the channel.

That sounds good but if we could find a sweet spot where everyone is available, then we should try that time first.

I would do this but the only genre I play these days are JRPGs.

playzooki · « **Reply #10 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:05:33 PM »

We could also have a list of games we want to play. Personally i'd like TF2, ace of spades beta and of course, robot arena 2

NeighImACarrot · « **Reply #11 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:09:13 PM »

If anyone could make me a list of what time it would be in common timezones at 8-BST or timezone difference it would be greatly appreciated.

KOS · « **Reply #12 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:10:52 PM »

I would love Call Of Duty, Onigiri :3, RA2, Counter Strike, Dayz, Rfactor (or any racing game) - just some ideas.

NeighImACarrot · « **Reply #13 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:12:28 PM »

Call of Duty's not in my shortlist for the first few weeks right now, but I'm going to do a poll for next weeks game if this idea takes off

Badnik96 · « **Reply #14 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:15:50 PM »

I'm game for whatever we come up with doing.

playzooki · « **Reply #15 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:18:27 PM »

I think its best to play games that are available for free.

Same here. By the way, are we doing this on consoles and pc, or just console or just pc? I'm fine with whatever.

If any of you guys have risk of rain, I'm able to set up a working server.

NeighImACarrot · « **Reply #18 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:24:52 PM »

Mostly PC but if enough people wanted to I could add console games to the poll, but somebody else would have to host it/organise it

Lemonism · « **Reply #19 on:** July 08, 2014, 02:25:44 PM »

This sounds cool. I'd come along for whatever I could. TF2 would be my first pick as well.
