Since no time has been officially set yet, I'll like to chime in. Middle of the night is better for me than middle of the day, since my husband will be working on Saturday and I've got to keep the kids entertained. But, then again, I'm a night owl.  It might be less convenient for those East Coasters but more convenient for those in Europe.

Any time is okay with me, but I'm with Virginia in that I don't mind the middle of the night much (and I'm in the eastern US time zone, too.
Karen, if you can't attend, who will do all the technical stuff? Do we, perhaps, need to reschedule? Do we know how many people will be "coming"?

Eastern time here too, but I can't seem to stay up past 1 or 2 am the latest now that I'm expecting. (Which is putting a damper on my writing).

Amber's going to send me a list of questions. Whether or not I can make it depends on the time of the ceremony and the weather (the plans involve a baseball game).
It's 2 days away!

FWIW, I prefer early evening, say, around 6:00 or so Eastern Standard Time. I wouldn't object to having it in the middle of the night my time, in fairness to those who live in different time zones, but I wouldn't be attending then.
Joy,
Lynn

It's just at 5 EST it eats up the whole afternoon for PST, which is the worst time during a Saturday afternoon. My kids want me to take them to a Renaissance Fair. 8 PM EST would be better for me, but a late night for EST people... I'm not sure what time it would be in Europe.

8pm EST would be good. Not too late (figuring to would run until 10ish). And hopefully easier for the rest of the time zones to make it in. (Thinking of when people might eat/put kids to bed/etc.)

Okay, the Kerth Ceremony will be Saturday at 8pm Central time. I have no idea what time that is for everyone else, but I will check on that and post it.
If you would still like to volunteer, we could still use you!
Thanks!
Amber

8pm Central Daylight Time is -05:00 GMT. In the United States, that will be 9pm Eastern, 7pm Mountain, and 6pm Pacific. And if you live somewhere in the U.S. that doesn't observe Daylight Savings Time, I'm afraid I can't help you.  Hopefully, knowing the deviation from from GMT will answer everyone's questions about time. In related news, when you join us on IRC on Saturday, make sure you join both the #kerthawards channel and the #kerthchat channel. I'm looking forward to "seeing" everyone at the ceremony! Amber

Amberlea: Could you please make a new post with the heading of "Final 2013 Kerth Award Ceremony information" or something like that? I had a hard time finding the information about where and when and it would be good to have it right out there in front. Yes, I realize it is kind of late to ask this. Thanks.

That's not a bad idea, Iolanthe, thanks. This thread has gotten a little cluttered! Amber

This works much better for me. Thanks.  I'll see you all there, if I don't get lost in cyberspace... which is a distinct possibility knowing me.

Hey, what's the sign in for the two Lois and Clark channels. I thought I'd try to practice a bit. And will the ceremony and chat work through Mibbit?

The two kerth channels are #kerthawards and #kerthchat, though there's no one there. If you want to test with people, #loisclark (which is where I'm logged into, if not always active) and #lanekent are the two channels the fandom has always used.

Virginia R noted in another thread that she can do drama. Missy G has also volunteered to do one.
At this point, I'd encourage anyone to post here as well as PM Amber to try to prevent doubles. (I hope that okay for me to say that, Amber.)
