okay. if my math is correct (be warned it never is) i shd look at about 7pm cst. 
i’ve been cracking my knuckles since yesterday to keep everything limber and my key tappers warm.
I posted a link to an event counter clock on the prior forum page. That will tell you when the event starts and stops in your timezone, as well as how much time is left before it begins.
Hi I replied to everything but I am concerned not heard any more?
The clock is ticking… I started on Cava, moved on to Dry Martinis (with green olive and very nearly the right sort of glass, I’ll have you know – no dropping of standards here), and have finally hit the gimlets. How can I while away the remaining 55 minutes until kick-off?
HOMEPORT: Yup, I’ve got all your messages. You are 49 minutes away. (give or take some processing time on those emails)
SIREN: Absynthe got you into this…
Hey piggy,
When you are sending out the parts, I am up and ready to go so can you make me one of the early ones?
Looking forward to it. First fiction writing since NIAD last year. I miss it.
Matt
Idle curiosity: How big a swath of the globe do the participants cover?
Clearly we have Americans (Coast to coast? I’m in a Boston suburb, so that takes care of the east) and Brits, but any Europeans or Asians? How about Aussies?
Isn’t Matt in Australia? (Or perhaps my memory is failing.)
From the UK, I see myself entirely as European. So, Asia or Africa, anyone? Or Antarctica? 
In Antarctica, you have the advantage of rotating your desk to face a different time zone as it suits you.
Is it too late to emigrate before the show begins?
I am in the Mountain time zone not quite West coast but almost.
Aussie here, nervously watching for email…
I got my file! A whole minute early!
Off to play…
Everyone should now have received an email with their files.
You’ll know it’s the right one because the chapter file has your name on it.
If anyone hasn’t received their file, let me know. In fact, feel free to let me know you have received your file.
If anything is not clear - you’d like more info blahblah… you know where to find me.
Opening the docs as I type (Word is s_o_ s_l_o_w_…)
Just import the lot into a blank Scrivener project.
Um, where? Should we ask questions here, or in private messages?
Not that I have any questions. So far, anyway.
Lots of options!
