Currently the dates and times set are Wednesdays and Saturdays at 8pm EST time and the meeting place is the ToadsCastle IRC Chat Channel #junto on the IRC server irc.wyldryde.org. Or you can go here to meetup/chat from your browser: http://www.toadscastle.net/junto.html

The meeting dates are just temporary for now until we decide what dates and times will work best for everybody. To discuss your opinions on the days of the week and time of day to play feel free to reply to this post or join us on the chat channel tonight (Wednesday) at 8pm or Saturday at 8pm, both EST GMT -0500 time.

Video Section
Posted June 7, 2009 03:53:59 PM by supertoad

The video section will host any sort of fan-created video that relates to Mario, or at least to Nintendo. These can be gameplay videos, reviews, movies, guides rants, or anything else you might come up with. I would've liked to create an easy way to upload these videos, but the low HTTP upload limit imposed by my host prevents me from doing something like PicUp for videos. I've looked into perhaps using PHP or Flex to build a flash-based client that uses an FTP connection, but so far I have nothing to show for it.

Nevertheless, I don't want to delay the debut of these section any longer, so I have created an FTP account that could be used to transfer the videos. Email me with a description of your video and I will send you the necessary information to upload the video. Hopefully this will eventually be an easier and more streamlined process. As soon as I get enough videos I will begin sorting them into categories. Until then, they will all be listed on the videos page.

Videos may be in any standard video format. I will be converting them into FLVs to play with Flowplayer. If your video can be played in a program like VLC player or Windows Media Player it should be fine.

To encourage more people to visit our IRC channel, I will be hosting a weekly scheduled chat starting at 8pm EST each Sunday. The channel is easy to access using the Flash client on the chat page. I hope many of you will come this Sunday and help make our first scheduled chat a success.
