Thank you to everyone who joined in with the 'Let's All Watch CoTG And Squee On AIM' yesterday - it was a heck of a lot of fun. That's pretty much the first time I've watched Stargate with anyone - well, with anyone who's actually interested in it, that is.

[profile] abyssinia4077 kindly saved and formatted the chat logs, and although they might make no sense to anyone who wasn't there, you can still go and read them  on [profile] redial_the_gate, in two parts: part 1 and part 2. Apparently the end wordcount was around 25,000, written over about 3hrs. One or two more of those and we'd have a book. Granted, a book that no one would want to read, but a book nevertheless. :)

It will definitely happen again, and a post will go up on redial soon to sort out the finer details, now we have an idea of what's involved. I probably won't play mom every time. It was almost no work to do so - no one misbehaved, it was mostly a matter of inviting people to the chatroom - but the most workable start times for international watching (to include the maximum amount of people) tend to mean me being awake at late hours. I am a night owl, but I try not to make a habit of it. 'Try' being the operative word there.

No, Thank You for hosting and organizing and everything! I admit it went much better than I expected (I wasn't expecting bad, just not as good as it was)

The 25,000 wordcount included timestamps and names, so we didn't quite *type* that many words, but it was still impressive (the final log I posted was a 49 page document).

I wonder if we could find some other times to rotate around with for international folk? (at least we didn't keep you until sunrise!)

I'm going to have a look at times, but I think, if we want to include Australia, too, what we had may be the most sensible time. It could maybe be an hour or two earlier, if it's on Saturday - if it's on Friday, though, that'll mean people in the US might have trouble getting there on time. And on Sunday, that would still be a bit late for UK peeps who have work the next day.

Anyhow, in future it won't be so long - 1.45 sounds a lot better than a 2.30, as a finishing time. :)

It was remarkably easy to organise, too. It was the right amount of people, I thought - it might get a bit confusing (more confusing...) with more people. Perhaps if it's popular, we should have two chatrooms, or something... I dunno.
