Yes, next Saturday.
Presuming same time, though may be a bit tricky with the ending of Daylight Savings coming up (gahhh not again, I remember the last event that got screwed by that, half of the participants showed up at one time, half showed an hour later :wacko:)
So far think we have 5pm GMT (which should be 12pm CST but again the hour change). And I'm realizing being PST for me I'll still not be able to attend that (got work on Sat from 9am until 1pm PST (4pm or 5pm to 8 or 9pm GMT...could do the morning before work at 7am PST which would be 2 or 3pm GMT...<gaaaaaah, shoots himself trying to deal with DST>.
Dont forget, this event is this upcoming saturday! Sorry for lack of updates and activity on this post, Ive been on mandatory overtime for the last week or so. Lets get this event rollin! =)
I'm involved, as my character, Juan_Williams. I've already got the reputation and ship that I want for the event. I need to do some trading to get the equipment and commodities that I want.
As of right now, I shouldn't have to work (I'm the senior driver in a small rural taxi company), unless the other driver gets overwhelmed (in which case I'll probably have to leave for a short trip) or a long distance trip comes up (which can happen on short notice).
Sorry guys @5pm GMT I'll be working. I'll make the $100 mil pot available though if someone could arrange for its distribution to participants and to meet me sometime tomorrow for the transfer.

Staff roles:
I have three pilots available to participate.
{JM}-Xoria : the Junker Noble for Kusari flying a Rheinland Pirate Cruiser
{JC}-Sinbad : Junker flying a Raven's Talon
Richard_Heidrich - Republican Shipping tagged Trader currently in a Camara Freighter (but could switch to, say, an armored transport if told that is more appropriate)
Each of these pilots has sufficient cash reserves to meet whatever is needed for this event.
Rather than try to coordinate my volunteering of one of those pilots, one of you planning this event just assign me a role and tell me which pilot to join in with. I am happy to participate in either the convoy or the "piracy". Conceivably, Richard Heidrich could switch to a fighter to fly escort duty, as well.
Also, Firebird, I am in the Eastern Time Zone of the USA, so I can meet with you to function as the "bank" for this event, if you still need a volunteer for that. I get off work at 5pm ET tonight, so tonight or anytime tomorrow I can be available to assist.
I would really like to participate in this event, so please tell me where my contribution will be the most valuable, and I will be there. Its probably a little late to try coordinating back and forth, so just give me an assignment, and I will do it.

Xoria: The transport would be the most useful as I think we could use some more in the convoy, but as repulican tagged it'd be unlikely that it would carry the bud. A junker transport would work well I think.
5pm EST is 9pm GMT, I'll meet you at say 6pm EST which is 4 hours and 15 mins from the time of this post.
Also the event's scheduled for 5pm GMT, which is 23 hours 15 mins from this post.

That's exactly what I have (as Juan_Williams): an Armored Transport with a Trader ID and Junkers tag. I've got half the cash I need for a gunboat shield. My enemies include the Nomads, Xenos, Hogosha, GC and Bounty Hunters Guild (which could make things interesting with the convoy's escorts).

You got the time right in the first sentence, but wrong in the second. 5 p.m. GMT is 1 p.m. EST which would be 23 hours, 15 minutes from the time of your post.
