I'll post a thread with details tomorrow :)

For making plans: It will very probably start at 19:00 or 20:00 EVE-time.

oh, the 22nd, that's Thanksgiving in the US. Don't think I'll be able to show up then :/

Yeah, unfortunately Thanksgivings is colliding with this mass test. I'm sorry that we cannot move the test to a better date for US players, but we hope that enough other players (Europe, ...) will show up this time. The mass test is also starting at 19:00, which should also make it a bit easier for European players. Sad

It is in fact great for this US player because I will not be at work. Our Thanksgiving plans are modest and should not get in the way.

Whats funny is CCP is like, 'yeah it sucks that this falls on a traditional family holiday, and US won't be there'...and ignores the fact that the everyday occurrence of WORK gets in the way of most US players who would like to participate in MT's...but would prefer to not take a vacation day (or use up valuable sick-days) to do so.

As said many times before, mass tests aren't done around you, they are done around CCP's schedule so they can be present to set it up and actually test stuff in a semi-controlled circumstance.

If it was setup around the players hardly any mass-tests would happen because all the US players will cry they can't due to the TZ difference and if it was setup around the US players all the EU players will cry that they can't. So the best way to do it is look at when CCP is available and work around their schedule.

Oh sweet, its on thanksgiving, so I can actually show up. Silly work, getting in the way of valuable EVE time.
