*nods*
I was there early, waiting with people. But then we moved to the tables to begin the drinking contest at 6pm CST/7pm EST exactly.
Several people came late, and we spent a while shouting for more people to come. (Heh, several players joined me in spreading the word. - We even popped into General/Global to be sure people heard.) We even have a few late comers come 10 minutes into the drinking and join in.
Then at around 6:20 CST/7:20 EST (maybe a bit later) we moved on to the Scavenger Contest. But we waited for people and got around 5 more players to come. As soon as they landed, I gated and led everyone to Trinsic.
Even had a few people come in the middle of the Scavenger Hunt and join in. (Around 30-40 people total. Was hard to tell by then, people were spread out all over.)
People got antsy so we began, my apologies.
