Hello and thank you, new and returning broadcasters! I love you guys, mwah. As with previous semesters we're still splitting shifts, but so that no one has to grab one section every day or anything, we will be continuing the three-day-a-week schedule with alternating Sundays. Everyone returning should have a new section to recap so you don't get burned out on the same stuff.
Here are a few other reminders:
1. Radio links are due between 6:30 pm PST (9:30 Eastern) and 8 pm PST (11:00 Eastern) unless the recapper has requested them earlier. If the recapper is doing a morning broadcast, you can get them in any time that night.
2. At some point, everyone's section will be slammed by links. They are also here to step in if your computer explodes, you are going on vacation for a few days, or your RL catches fire. This time your backup will be Shannon and Momoko! And don't forget that we have our
availability request post in case you need help. You can tack that post so you can see when a new request comes in.
3. Class and clubs can be truncated to exclude "and so and so existed" threads that aren't used.
4. As always, anything happening in the exam rooms of the clinic is NFB, as is anything marked NFB in non-public spaces (rooms, ye olde conveniently secluded parts of the the beach or preserve). The jail is for broadcast. If people are out and public and then go NFB, you can report who was talking, but not what the conversation was about. If they don't mark it as NFB, they're out of luck if they didn't want it up on the radio.
5. As far as the linking itself goes, it makes life much easier for the broadcaster if your stuff is in chronological order going from morning to evening. Please be sure to recap the entire conversation, not just until the thread folds. Also also, please add last names to the names that double: we have multiple Jacks at almost any point in time, etc., and it'll cut back on confusion for everyone.

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH. If there's anything that doesn't work on here, just let me know and we'll work it out. Also, I tried to go through and clear out accounts last night, so if I took anyone off who shouldn't be, or if you need another account put on the filter, let me know/apply for membership and it'll get fixed.
The new schedule starts with the first Sunday shift on today, Sunday, September 1 for Monday's radio!
