Title: Notifications about upcoming game worlds
Post by: Sami on November 25, 2009, 01:32:10 AM
Please tell me some feedback on how and when you'd like preliminary information about upcoming/planned game worlds at AWS.

The medias we use at the moment are the website itself, RSS feed, Twitter, Facebook and newsletter. If we publish the info as regular 'site news' it will go to all of these (except to email/newsletter which we send out approx once a month).

I'm mainly interested that how long in advance you'd like to know of the upcoming game worlds and how specific details you'd be needing. As often it's quite not decided until a day or two before it starts...

This is exactly what I was going to comment on.  I haven't joined the past two games because I haven't had the time to strategize where I want to locate my base, what my strategy is, etc.; and if I were to join even 12 hours after the game starts, all the good used planes would already be taken.  I'd want at least 5 days notice on the next game, if I had the option.

Ideally there would be some sort of timetable that a new game would start.  The game starts are too random right now and I have missed the last couple games because I didn't know they started.  At the very least send out an e-mail to everyone letting them know a new game is about to start.  Thanks!
