Well, I would have preferred around about now, but I might be able to
keep squeezing stuff in until next weekend.

heh. that'll give me an opportunity to dump off more of my ladder
stuff before more of my characters get nailed by that bug. I lost 2
accounts worth of non ladder characters, not that I care. I play CE
exclusively now.

We apparently have just three people interested in a yard sale for next
Saturday at 5 PM PST? Given the effort required to keep the game open
(especially with bnet as cranky as it is these days), unload mules, re-store
unclaimed items again at the yard sale end, etc, this doesn't really sound
like justification for having one.

Well, I'd be tempted to go ahead anyway and if b.net ends up
swallowing most of it, well, it's not like I was planning on using it
anyway.

I think you're talking about 11am Sunday my time which I shouldn't
have any trouble making, so I'd be able to keep one computer in game
all the time at the least. Won't help if B.Net get's really narky,
but if I'm going in and out with my other computer, I'd be able to see
when b.net decides the game's full even when it's not.
*shrug*
Possibly open a game and see who shows up before bothering to start
dropping stuff?

I'd be interested in joining as I've been away from Bnet for a while and
could use a little pick me up. The thing is I'm moving Friday and I'm unsure
about whether I'll even have a connection setup let alone have my computer
unpacked. Well, if I can I'll drop in, otherwise perhaps next time.

Well hell, don't need no yard sale for a pick me up. If ya ever see
me online give me a yell and I'll dump as much stuff on you as I can
get you to take!

Hmm... 7:00pm CST on a Saturday night? Hey, why not, not like I have a RL
or anything to get in the way.
What will the game name/pw be?

Yes, it's tricky, because if I make it on Sunday, it's Monday for some parts
of the world, which makes attendence tricky. Make it during the week, and
people don't turn up for it because they're tired from work, and it's
difficult to make the yardsale too much earlier in the day, because some parts
of the world it's far too early to attend. Got an alternate time suggestion?

No, no, that time is ok with me, as I said, I don't have a RL outside of
this game so all I have to do is remember, which is not always easy for
those of us with CRS. But, you did not answer my question regarding the
game name and pw, is it going to be the usual agd/agd or something else
like yardsale/comeandgetit?

Okay, we'll see what we can do then. The hard part is trying to pick a time
that works for most people, given the varying timezones.

Yes, or alternatively, post a thread of planned builds, and people may offer a
few starter bits and pieces. The thing is, since very few people ever post
what builds they're working on (other than short, Jabber and I) people just
never know what gear to save for others.

Incidently, do you have the password for agdpub? (if not, I can see it to
you). I don't know how actively people have been putting gear on there, but
if I know what builds you're going to work on, I can start putting suitable
bits and pieces on there for you to pick up.

Well I'd like to restart a Blizzard sorc for one seeing as I lost my original
blizzard sorc that was my first cchar with D2 due to inactivity.

I'm also interested in trying out another assassin although I haven't really
decided on a build. I've built a number of them in the past that always
turned out to be multipurpose. I've seen lots of posts on various assassin
builds that I'll have to go review to see what I want to try. I typically
have a pretty good connection so handling the charge ups isn't a problem if I
want to make a kicksin of some sort.

I'll have to think about it for a bit and plan a few builds.

and thanks for the reply and offer of assistance.

and nope, I don't have the agdpub pw. If you send it to me that would be
nice. I'm sure I'll end up putting more on it than taking. At least in the
long run.

I usually use something OTHER than agd/agd, as doing a yardsale inside the
normal agd game can lead to confusion if people are also doing their normal
muling tasks there too.

So, most likely the game name and password will be agdfreecrap///agd, but that
will be announced closer to the day, or on the day (or both).

Midday Sunday for us. We could maybe push it back one hour, maybe two,
although I don't know how Ash feels about attending a yardsale that starts at
8 AM or earlier on a Sunday for him.

This time is about perfect for me, 9:30 Newfie time. Seeing as how I'm up to
I think 9 accounts now, there's gonna be a large pile dropped.
Suggestion: Have 2 games up from the start. If we can get someone to keep an
empty mule in each game, when the inevitable game full or Realm Downs
happen, we'll be set.

Unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to be around after all.
My parents are in the process of moving house, so I imagine most of
sunday I'll helping unload stuff and unloading a couple of loads of
hay bales and helping prepare the ground for a water trough and other
assorted fun.
