Does this one have Tolkien Professor Corey Olson?

Also, if A&T is getting moved back forward a half hour (beginning in 2019?) we should start announcing it.

[Byrcha2]

I think the Tolkien Professor is currently scheduled for January 14th, the week before Winterstock.

Yes, we should be announcing the time change, and the Winterstock schedule too.

[Crystalleowyn]

Oh! Back half an hour? Does that mean that Nibbles & Nobs will start at 8:00 PM EST, or 9:00 EST?

New time is supposed to start with the January shows. Up to Lady B if she wants to start with the Yule show.

[Crystalleowyn]

Oops! What I meant to ask is if the time changes to 8 PM or to 9 PM EST. :)

[Byrcha2]

I think the plan is N&N at 8pm and main show at 9pm /servertime. But not until the new year, so that we can give people notice.

[Aedon Durreah]

Correct B. Hoping to get folks off to dreamland sooner in 2019.

[Vorlt Trankey]

I have put myself down as a maybe, as long as I wake up in time, I plan to be there.

Major confusion there! 'Move back' usually means 'later.' We're actually 'moving it forward' by half hour which means it will now be half hour earlier:
N&N at 8PM with A&T at 9PM /servertime.

Yes. "Spring forward, Fall back".

P.S. We still need musicers for tonight's Old Winyards set.

Veri, I have been announcing and posting it. I will be step up ads this week for sure.

[Carica]

So next week (31st) is still the usual time and January 7th is the new time?

I say stick with the current schedule until next week and then change it. New year, new schedule. Plus it's a holiday both days and people may not get the news in time.
