Now that we are starting to have gaming 'meetups' more often, I was wondering if we could get a calendar for an all-in-one place to find what is going on when and where? For instance there's the Halo 3 training, Left4Dead 2 campaigns & versus, WoW playing, even offline meetups at conventions. Which is AWESOME! But sometimes you have to check more than one forum to find out, so it would be great if we could have an at-a-glance option.

I know vBulletin has a built in one, but I'm not sure this forum software does as well. Is it possible?


(I'm hoping that even though I did much searching there is not already a calendar I have missed red face)

I agree! I think it would be a lot easier to find this info if we had a master calendar or something to look at.

That is a really good idea! I have to check several forums 2 find out whats going on, and sometimes i find out the information too late, and i miss events...

This would be really useful, with Chix being from around the world. It's seems hard to find one at a useful UK time for example and I'm a bit shy to ask red face

Purplepooki and me have our Friday Night Zombie Bashing for L4D2. We mostly play the new Mutation and after just go to campaign or versus. It's casual and open to all our friends. We usually play at 8pm EST around there, all depending on "life" and other games lol. Anyone is welcome to join smile

So you can add it to the calendar if you want Fullofgrace smile

Calendar has been updated! We're also tossing around the idea of doing a Co-Ed Co-Op night with our significant others. Come vote! http://www.popchix.com/index.php/forums/viewthread/1288/

Okay, next question..

How do I add the Popchix calender to my own google calender? I've never done this before and I'm having trouble working it out. :(

I should have added this here after I said it in the other thread. I'm sorry!

Anyone who has a Google calendar just needs to tell me her Google email addy and then I can add you to the 'allowed users' section. You can post it here or PM me with it and I'll add you as soon as I get it! smile red face

C&Ping; my blahblahblah about it from the "Does your guy play the box?" thread --
Do you have a Google Calendar? http://www.google.com/calendar/ It works like the Microsoft Outlook calendar, only it's free. If someone shares their calendar with you, their appointments or events or holidays, etc show up in your calendar. So when you look at your Friday the 20th for example, the PopChiX Left4Dead Friday (only visible here when it's not shared: http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=popchixmembers@gmail.com&ctz=America/New_York&pvttk=612307584758f4eee00eecff235bda47) will be right in there along with your day's appointments. Does that make sense?


My Google Calendar has PopChix events in it. I took a couple screenshots for examples --

So.. we can copy each individual event from yours to ours then?

That might take a while!

No copying individually is required if you have a Google Calendar of your own. I just add your Google email address to the PopChiX calendar, and Google ports all of the events into your Google Cal for you in one swoop, and then updates it automatically every time something new gets added or changed.

Editing to clarify: I have to do it manually in the back panel, so that's why I need people's gmail addresses. Google makes it an 'add one person ata time' dealio, but it also keeps our PopChiX stuff only accessible to verified ChiX, so it's a trade-off.

I am new to this but how do we add our gmail to the PopChiX calendar? I don't see an option to copy it over unless I am on a specific day.

I need your gmail addy to add you as an 'allowed user'. That part's done manually, so send me a quick PM with it and I'll add you!! smile
