Folks,
I apologize if this comes across as something of a surprise at this point, but given what appears to have been some kind of confusion over the chat, and what amounted to a failure of this last Saturday's chat, I am calling the experiment to run them at alternating time schedules a failure at this time.
As a very real problem with scheduling persists (which had prompted the change in schedule), I am also pre-emptively announcing that there will be NO BattleChat for the month of June at this time. Frankly, I think we need to re-examine the chat schedule, and at this time many of the writers and myself are rather swamped. We want to work out a chat schedule that's both as accessible and as reliable as possible, but recent events have thrown too many monkey wrenches into the process for me to honestly consider the present standards sustainable.
Thank you.

P.S.: This is most assuredly NOT a permanent hiatus for the chats, but simply a temporary one while we work out issues with scheduling that I have frankly been unable to focus on of late. The chats will return as soon as I can be confident that a regular and stable schedule can be maintained, particularly one that allows consistent moderation and active participation by writers and attendes alike. For those of you still unfamiliar with where these chats occur,
this link takes you directly to the Public BattleChat room. It is, as its name implies, PUBLIC, so membership in BattleCorps is not required to log in.
