I remember there being a ceremony sometime set in a very reasonable European time. Might have been for the Alt-Kerths, though. In any case, rotation sounds fair.  Maybe a poll with checkboxes where we all check the times that are convenient to us.
What we've got here is failure to communicate...

It might have been the alt-kerths. Most years I remember the Kerths being at 6pm EST, though I think one year it might have been at 2pm EST. That would have been many many moons ago, though.

I think there were several Kerth ceremonies starting either at 4 or 5 PM EDT, which was still within reason for me. (Especially 4 PM.)

ARGH!!! I was able to connect to chatrooms earlier this week when I practiced, but now I am getting the following messages: *** Creating connection "LynnSM" Connecting to irc.undernet.org at port 6666 (SSL is OFF) Connection established Your host is trying to (re)connect too fast -- throttled Disconnected *** I haven't changed any settings since I last successfully connected. Any suggestions?  I hope I won't miss the ceremony due to technical difficulties, but it looks like I might. Thanks, Lynn

Lynn, give it a minute and try again. It does that sometimes with rapid connections.

I'm not sure what any of that means, but I just sent a message to someone in the room that you were having troubles. Hopefully they know how to fix it? Edit: Looks like someone's on the job already!

Oooh, or actually, try to connect to us.undernet.org instead of irc.undernet.org. It might give you better luck.

Thanks Karen and Mrs. Luthor.
I'm trying us.undernet.org now. I've turned off the automatic reconnect option. Now I am getting the following message:
Connection to IRC has failed: system error code 10060"
I'm about to Google that.
Thanks again,
Lynn
