Check the boxes that apply to you as far as availabilities. We may do this once or several times depending on how the selection process goes. Also post or PM me your Skype username.


I'll come up with some 'event details', though I think the primary thing to keep in mind is this isn't that big of a deal.

I'm pretty much available for all those slots but I can't do all of them (know what I mean?). I'll wait a day or two and check a few that have the most people. Right now leaning towards 1 and 2

Why don't we post a few tips for what we can talk about?
-What you are doing with your life
-your own personal INTP dilemma.

What not to talk about:
-getting laid

24 Jul 2006, 12:15 PM
Things we could discuss:
-Moridin Vs. Nemesis: Who will out-Extrovert the other?
-how do you cope as an INTP in your country (except the U.S, we seem to know everything about you - just kidding :p )

what we shouldn't:
-computers of any kind from the 80's-90's
-your mom

They're all open for me, and I'll be there if I can fix my headset. I think my son was playing with it, the mic stopped working about a week ago.

Don't forget to PM me, or add Skype to your profile, or post your Skype username here. You can easily create a dummy Skype profile just for this if you want your anonymity.

The reasoning is I'd hate to have people try to sabotage this by claiming to be someone they are not... this is the internet after all and all-ya-all are crazy

Why not try all of them? It's easy to pop in and check who's there. This is not the kind of thing I'd want to make plans for. If I'm home and free, then I'll stop by.

SKYPE name - aklight

I'm a pretty extroverted introvert. Give me a shout.

Ok we'll get back to that say tomorrow. Or today, actually. Probably.

6 am. I need to get some sleep at some point. Sooner or later. Preferably later.

One more shot .. uh ... glass ... I've lost count but that might be seventh.

Well, you're special: I made two of your avatars, unlike most others.

Except myself: i've made three jesterized versions of my previous avatars.

Like this:

I prefer Ibuprofein (or whatever the spelling). about a half a litre of water + one of those before going to bed is a 100 % sure way to prevent hangovers.

And it is seventh ... I think ... just my shots aren't exactly the same as what is usually considered a shot ...


and uh ... the topic. Skype. How many of us actually like talking on the phone? not many I guess. Skype is the same, except it's easier to play solitaire while talking (or not talking, waiting for the other person to say something).

29 Jul 2006, 08:48 AM
I'm just happy that this thread forced me to register a skype account.

aklight
29 Jul 2006, 08:56 AM
We talked about alcohol, cigarettes, life, death, motivation, jobs, dreams, the future. And we probably talked about some of you folks, but that we'll never share! HAHAHA! I don't know. You'll just have to join us next time.

Yeah, I only downloaded Skype to do this, but I like it.

s0978
29 Jul 2006, 09:16 AM
Meh, I only wanted to do it if you guys had no idea who I was and so I could heckle and troll.

Skype is great for international rates.

Skype is great for international rates.
In other words, free?

s0978
29 Jul 2006, 09:30 AM
In other words, free?well, always free whenever skype-to-skype, but you purchase time for calling regular phones. Very reasonable overseas rates, though- varies by country.

aklight

Oh yeah, it's a pretty good alternative to a real phone if you use your computer enough. You can make PC to phone calls very cheap. Like 2 cents a minute anywhere in the country. International is cheap too, I'm sure.

How do you get a group discussion going in skype? Never did that before. It would be cool if there's enough people coming online today/tonight

You were supposed to be there tonight, I thought! You just need to start a conference and invite people to it, I'm pretty sure. I think any more than 5 people at once would be crazy, but I'd try it.

29 Jul 2006, 07:50 PM
Well, that concludes my participation into the INTP central skype, I'll be gone for the rest of the day so someone else will have to take lead on the next two blocks if you guys decide to do it.

Thanks to those that participated, I had fun. Maybe we'll do this again in a few months

aklight
29 Jul 2006, 08:03 PM
Yeah, it was pretty cool. I just happen to be around during the meet up times, even though I don't know when they are! I would start one up tonight but I'm working, maybe after work I'll see whats up with you folks.

If we all add each other as friends, then it will be easy to get conversations and conferences going. That way we just get on whenever we are available and see who's there.

A few months? Damn, that's a long time! That's okay though, I don't want to get addicted to talking to people on the computer. Has anyone used the program called TeamSpeak? I used to always get on there and chat with my friends whenever I was on the computer. I still do that sometimes. In that respect, it's kind of cool. You can have a button for talking so people don't hear everything you do when you're not saying something.

I have an idea. How about if everyone who's interested in a skype conference (doesn't have to be right then) just join #Skype on IRC. Then whenever someone thinks that there are enough people in the room, he calls out some names (to wake people up) and then they start a Skype conference.

We don't have to wait 2 months to skype with eachother. We don't need a hundred people. All we need is to have enough people there to make it worthwhile and then just start it. People can always be added later on.
