I want to do a quick straw poll on a suitable weekend for TINS 2017. If you have any preference that I should take into account, please speak up now or forever hold your peace. Here are the options: 14-15 October Of course the competition will run as usual, 72h between Friday 12:00 PM UTC to Monday 12:00PM UTC on those weekends. I'll let Elias' vote count double because he couldn't make it last time -- |

I'm gravitating toward 28 - 29 of October. It'd be a great date for a Halloween-themed game. Hmm...

NOTHING my family plans is planned that far out, so as far as I can tell, if I decide to join, any of those weekends work for me. Well, weddings are planned that far out, but the only one I'm aware of is in June. --- |

I have nothing scheduled on any of those weekends yet, except a piano meetup on the 28th - but I could still participate around that, or miss it, so I suggest you put 0.9 of a vote from me on that weekend, and 1 each on the other two weekends. Someone who has a whole weekend committed should be swaying the vote, not me. I will just be back from Kilimanjaro! So I'll probably either feel healthy and therefore inclined to participate, or dead. -- |

Nice to see the planning already! Hard to say this far into the future, but the probabilities say it's Oct 21-22 better than Oct 28-29 better than Oct 14-15 for me.

This is very far on the future for me. But looking at the calendar, day 12 is a holiday and I would probable be able to bridge it in the 13th. So I'm strong in favor of 14-15 October. Further, starting to code something in a Friday 13th for the halloween seems to be pretty cool! So, I am with Eric Johnson. I also want to make a Halloween-themed game.

I would be most likely to participate on Oct 21-22. But I have never finished anything for one of these, so don't give my vote too much weight

If I can get all the rust off of my coding skills either the 14-15th or the 28-29th works best for me.

Eric Johnson said: I'm gravitating toward 28 - 29 Does that mean you won't be make it on the other dates though? Currently, I'm counting the most in favor of 28-29, but also the fewest against 21-22. -- |

Die-hards! I'm tempted to join just for the Allegro nostalgia. I see some old familiar faces. I'm partial to 14-15 or 21-22, definitely against 28-29 |

Ok, in that case, I've made a decision. TINS 2017 will take place Oct 21-22. I'll put out announcements everywhere this weekend. -- |

I also submitted news for the front page but that may take a while as we know. Where else would you like to see an announcement? -- |

You should announce it at GameDev.net. They get way more traffic than we do. It's your competition so I figured I'd let you introduce it.
