Changing Session Day/Time[edit source]

I'm mindful that Saturday evenings, quite late, may no longer be the best time for SimSig Sessions to happen, with the world returning to normal and people having very busy lives. It's likely we'll be dropping the frequency to fortnightly-(ish) anyway, but are there particular days or times that people think would work better? Maybe a weekend afternoon, for instance?

We generally need a block of around 4-5 hours, inclusive of a break, to make a Session worthwhile, but do recognise that this doesn't always work for everyone. Drop your ideas below and add to the discussion, and we'll see what seems to work for people! No such thing as a daft suggestion. Jarley (talk) 13:27, 16 April 2021 (BST)

For me most Friday or Saturday afternoon-evenings should work, but I do have the issue of a very inconsistent schedule :). ChielM 13:36, 16 April 2021 (BST)
My own preferance is for Monday, Tuesday & Thursday evenings, (Friday evenings should also soon be possible) but equally I am aware I have a very odd work schedual and this may not work so well for anyone else Littlereddragon (talk) 13:41, 16 April 2021 (BST)
Any week-night other than Friday might work (though I have occasional things on Tue/Wed). Saturday evenings are possibly getting a little less ideal now but can make time sometimes. --Deadly (talk) 00:16, 17 April 2021 (BST)
Weeknights not generally good for me as they're mostly when I get my OU work done - but if that's the preference no worries, will join in as and when I can (Only evening I definitely can't do every week is Thursday). Weekend afternoons/evenings work well for me generally. --Mike1901 (talk) 00:22, 2 May 2021 (BST)
Prefer not weeknights, however not a deal breaker unless its Monday or Thursdays. With notice can make most other days. -- HiDeHi (talk) 19:18 6 May 2021 (BST)
I work 9-5 Mon-Fri (ish) and am free other times. Jack (talk) 20:21, 6 May 2021 (BST)
Work 9-6 Mon-Fri and generally free at other times, if it clashes with something else it clashes with something else... Aimes (Aimes) 08:47, 7 May 2021 (BST)
I work late shifts... so any daytime or my nights off work well. I seem to more frequently have weekend days or Wednesdays somehow off, so these nights work better for me. But there's no fixed pattern... so if I'm not driving it, I can signal it! ChrisJ (talk) 22:40, 7 May 2021 (BST)
Shifts in retail, almost always unavailable on a Friday as long late shift seems to fall on my plate, likelihood I'll lose Tuesday evenings as well. Free all Saturday, occasional early shift on Sunday (all random shifts, so not set in stone until a week prior) that'd have me disappear on a Saturday night. Open to other times depending on work/Uni commitments --Lcawte (talk) 12:27, 10 May 2021 (BST)
