    So this website has become quite dead lately and I'm going to attempt to revitalize it. As much as I like Discord, I also miss using this site an having our own spot on the interweb.

    At one point I thought about closing this down but I like it and miss us using it more. Hopefully some others feel the same way.

    Yeah, we don't have a very active base but I feel like Discord is easier for quick conversations whereas the site would be better for longer conversations and also easier to find. At least that is what I'm thinking. In the end the same users basically are the one who take part in the sessions so it probably doesn't make a difference.

    Just something to occupy my brain. Smile

    I'm torn between using our website , Discord , XBL message , TA.
    They all are very good methods of communication with some overlap.
    It might be nice to think about streamlining methods to may it easier for mainly game scheduling which looks like a main social component of CGC.
    Also, is it possible to rally the troops to schedule a different game than posted?
    Might be a way of having more group participation.
    Other side of the coin, I would not want to draw people away from the posted scheduled game.

    I too am torn between all the different methods of communication. I would love to have a little brainstorming session. I'm just not totally sure of the logistics of it.

    I would also LOVE to have a rally of troops. I think the hard part is getting someone to coordinate it. I don't want to be responsible for making sure everyone has a game to play. Take tonight as an example... we've got a group of people that want to play Strange Brigade which limits us to 4 people. I think that is the goal of a "Social Night" as we used to call it but no one steps up and says, "I'd like to play some Left 4 Dead... is anyone interested". I'm not sure about the best way about doing it. Maybe posting something of a sign up sheet for that particular night... or a list of games people would like help with...

    I'm not sure but I would welcome any input.. I would also love the whole streamlining idea...

    The hardest thing for gaming groups is game selections.
    During NTGG days, we had the same issue.
    Please don't forget that CGC has a great core group of members.
    Maybe members can host some sessions to help.
