    Since we're seeing many more events generated these past few months, to help keep them sorted, please include the day they run in the thread title.

    For example: OCT 5, 2016 - 2pm CDT - Robert's Rodeo in Owl's Head

    Or, for recurring events: Every Friday - 4-6pm CDT - Chris's Cooking Class in Brittany Fields

    If you could, please always use CDT/CST (Central) time. Here is a nifty converter for your timezone:

    Thanks!

    Here is another time converter that is also handy for events, it allows you to see the time at a glance across all timezones.
    Just move the slider to the events time and then click "link to this page" in the top right. (You can select future dates by changing the date in you browsers URL address bar.)

    We used to have release sections for events, which was a nice way of sorting them, but this creates undue clutter in the forums. Having the date in the title is easy to reference, both for you guys, as well as for us wanting to add new events to the calendar :).
