YEP! Pasadena Mean Time. That's why I closed the 8-12 pm slot on Friday in case there's a podcast.

Details...details...but you are correct sir. So that's PMT +1 hour then Aaron Thats correct if the time zone converter you are using doesn't take DST (Daylight Savings Time) into effect. This time zone stuff makes my eyes bleed a bit...especially over the International Dateline. So I use this handy dandy visual tool: everytimezone.com/On that webpage Pasadena Mean Time=San Francisco which is UTC -7. I do recommend sending a PM to all of your players GMs to make sure 1) The communications are a workin' 2) The Time Zones are in agreement 3) Last minute tweeks to the game. So much nicer to have all that garbage hashed out before your wee little four hour game slot.

For the game that I've seen you run Hyve; I don't think much needs to be done to set the G+ Hangout. - Create a Circle Containing All Your Players (Everyone else is free to watch it if you make it live, Hangout live icon is Orange Quotes/Not Live is Green
- When you start the hangou I'd add the Hangout Toolbox (lets use add a lower third name)
- You might want roll20 for virtual dice/chat client
- You can add any maps/pics in Roll20
- Uh...have FUN!
I'll start a hang out now and run it until 10:00 PDT if you want to mess with a real person to person hangout. Cheers, Curt J
