Enzo the Magnificent Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Well, it's all over bar the shouting. And here's where we do the shouting. There was a tie for last place, which means that both proposals get a slot. There are twelve slots in total. Please let me know which slots you would like for your GB. Ideally it will be first come, first served but I reserve the right to make executive decisions regarding that. I won't make an executive decision for frivolous reasons. They will take into account issues such as: GB host has numerous GBs running concurrently. I will attempt to space those out. That might be difficult for one person... Similar GBs run concurrently. One example is Salty Sea Dog and Here Comes The Fleet. They need to be well spread out. There is a significant anniversary involved. The available dates are: Sat, 7 Jan 23 to Sun, 30 Apr 23 Sat, 4 Feb 23 to Sun, 28 May 23 Sat, 25 Feb 23 to Sun, 18 Jun 23 Sat, 18 Mar 23 to Sun, 9 Jul 23 Sat, 8 Apr 23 to Sun, 30 Jul 23 Sat, 29 Apr 23 to Sun, 20 Aug 23 Sat, 20 May to 23Sun, 10 Sep 23 Sat, 10 Jun to 23Sun, 1 Oct 23 Sat, 1 Jul 23 to Sun, 22 Oct 23 Sat, 22 Jul 23 to Sun, 12 Nov 23 Sat, 12 Aug 23 to Sun, 3 Dec 23 Sat, 26 Aug 23 to Sun, 17 Dec 23 Please be aware that the first slot opens up in seven weeks time. Can you also please advise me whether you have co-hosts for your GB.

bianfuxia Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Hi and hooray! Glad to be here. I'm for Above the Karman Line, as yet without a co-host. I'm based in Australia. Due to travel plans over the northern summer (first family vacay since pre-covid) I am keen to not be hosting a GB then. Other than that I am pretty flexible and will happily take: 7 Jan-30 Apr Or Any of the last three listed slots. I could probably also handle the second listed and fourth-last listed if needed too. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 The Entropy co host is @JeroenS. I have no particular preference for a start date. How about you Jeroen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEMPESTMK5 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Good morning Enzo So far I don't have a co ost but I will ask if someone is interested ... I would like to take the 2nd or the 3rd slot Thank you for all your work Best Regards Patrice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 As I'm going to be out of the country for significant periods of time, I'd like to avoid slots that cover those dates. For me, the 1st, 2nd and 8th slots suit me best, at a pinch I could manage the 3rd slot but would be leaning on my co-host a lot at the tail end of that slot. At the moment I don't have a co-host but will be applying some pressure asking for a volunteer, if not a volunteer then a pressed individual will do. 23 minutes ago, TEMPESTMK5 said: Good morning Enzo So far I don't have a co ost but I will ask if someone is interested ...

Dansk Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Well done everybody but commiserations to those who didnt get through. I have a stgb early in the year so if it's ok with co-host extradordinaire @modelling minion to avoid overlap with that and being away in the summer, could we earmark either the last or penultimate slot? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyOD Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) Morning all! As I’m away weekends on DofE duties a fair bit between April and September, an early or late slot for the Salty Sea Dog would be preferable. Co-host is @Col., do you have a preference? thanks edit: I’ve just noticed that because of the length of the GBs almost all of the slots involve the sunny time of the year, so scratch the above, give me anything, I’ll make it work. I’m sure @Col. and I can keep the ship afloat between us. Edited November 15, 2022 by TonyOD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be 15 days overlap at the end of the Leopard STGB. Hope that's not too much of a problem. Ignore that. I'm talking rubbish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 Okay, here is a provisional suggestion. I've tried to avoid overlap of similar themes and hosts. The big problem is presented by @Marklo who is a very enthusiastic GB host. He has three STGBs which thankfully don't clash (well, there is a one day overlap). But that makes it impossible to fit in a GB without it clashing somewhere although I have attempted to minimise the overlaps. Mark, I recommend that you find a co-host for the Airco/DH GB. It's shouldn't be too difficult. 7 Jan 23 Salty Sea Dog @TonyOD @Col. 4 Feb 23 Marcel Bloch / Dassault @TEMPESTMK5 25 Feb 23 Recce @Scargsy 18 Mar 23 Transporters, Loaders and Carriers @Robert Stuart @Pin @JeroenS 8 Apr 23 Not My Comfort Zone @AdrianMF 29 Apr 23 Airco / DH @Marklo 20 May 23 Go Large Or Go Home @trickyrich 10 Jun 23 Southern Europe @Wez 1 Jul 23 Entropy @Bertie McBoatface JeroenS 22 Jul 23 Here Comes The Fleet @LorenSharp 12 Aug 23 Karman Line @bianfuxia 26 Aug 23 Desert @Dansk @modelling minion Comments?
