MY TIME ZONE (UTC/GMT +/- #): Central, GMT -5 I believe

[Shaz]

I'd like to join too. It would be my first time and I need something to encourage myself to work on my game.

DAYS: Monday-Friday (Updates on Friday)

TIMES: 4pm - 8pm (Fridays the whole day if possible.)

MY TIME ZONE (UTC/GMT +/- #): UTC + 1

PREFERRED TEAM: Mages

Can you please commit to either one update a week, or 5 updates a week? We REALLY prefer to have updates asap after you've done your work, and they should only be bundled into a single post (still stating what you did on every single day) when it just can't be avoided.

Welcome to GMD, too

 

[William MC]

I want in on this!

I may be likely to add in extra time on Friday/Saturday but due to college studies I can only say Tuesday and Thursday in the evenings. This should be fun!

I'm going to go ahead and sign up now even though I won't be able to start until the 12th. I hope that isn't a problem.

[Shaz]

lol - I love that you put a second and third preference Sharm Yep, signing up even though you won't start until the 12th is fine.

Quick question! GMD is for continue our main games or start completely new projects for GMD?

 

[Shaz]

up to you. As long as you're making progress on a an RPG Maker (or IG Maker) game. Doesn't even have to be yours

I guess I'll try, I've been lazy with my game lately...

[Evan Finkel]

@Shaz, Another question, (sorry I am asking too much!) start or continue our games any day or when GMD starts? These days are only for idea and story?

 

[Shaz]

You may misunderstand the purpose of GMD. It is simply to help you make a commitment and stick with it, in order to progress on your game. There is no "start a new game" or "finish a game" goal - unless that's where you're currently up to. If you can work on it now, then work on it now - we don't want you to hold off until GMD begins. We just don't want any updates posted until GMD begins, that's all (and we don't want your first update to include anything you've done before GMD begins). And idea/story are perfectly valid GMD activities to post about too - it doesn't have to be limited to work you do IN RPG Maker - it includes all aspects of making a game.


Does that make it more clear?

 

[Indinera]

Count me in. Twice a week. Monday and Thursday, anytime during the day. 

And you can put me in any team you want.  BD

 

[Shaz]

You're GMT+0, aren't you?


It'll be nice to see you posting again ... you've been MIA for a while

 

[Indinera]

Thanks for your sweet comment! Please put me GMT+4 for May

PS: was very busy. GMD will be a perfect event to detail this aha

 

[Alusair1]

DAYS:  Wednesdays

TIMES:  6-10pm (this time has seemed to work well to get about an hour in there somewhere)

MY TIME ZONE (UTC/GMT +/- #):  UTC (-06:00)

PREFERRED TEAM: MAGES

2nd PREFERENCE: KNIGHTS

3rd PREFERENCE: MERCENARIES

These have been fun and a good motivation tool.  Much as I wish I could commit to more, right now this at least gives me a dedicated amount of time to work on my project each week.  (I also have a good bedtime routine with the little one.)

I hope that perhaps when this GMD finishes, I will feel up to posting a thread in the Early Project Feedback section.  Its taking shape ever so slowly. 

 

[Needle]

I think I'm going to give this a try. Right now my progression has been almost entirely based around cycles of binge-working with binge-procrastinating, and I need to manage my time better.

DAYS: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday

TIMES: 7PM - 9PM (Sunday any time)

MY TIME ZONE (UTC/GMT +/- #): GMT -6 (I think?)

PREFERRED TEAM: Whichever team has the least amount of participants when I get added in.

Looking forward to a productive month! Lali ho!
