it seems Thursdays work well for everyone so we'll keep that, but for a lot of us, Saturday is a but more difficult. Should we try Sunday or another week night?

The next two raid I'd like to do are Ultima's bane and battle on the Big bridge, with a possible stab at garuda EX. if you have the time, go ahead and watch the fights on youtube, it'll make it a little easier. If you don't have battle on the big bridge open, it's done through the hildebrand quests (that you should do anyway! it's hilarious!)

Last weeks raid was incredibly awesome. those who had done the fights before were helpful and supportive, and those who hadn't, they learned quickly and did a fantastic job of making it look easy!
I know I'm quite proud of our team, and i hope you guys are too. but if you have any issues (even if it's with me) please let me know. I want this to be fun, first and foremost, getting upgrades to gear is just a side bonus.
/cheer!

Sounds all fine to me. Sundays I can do so long as it won't run on too late. It has become pretty common that I open the store in the mornings. However, I did request reduced hours so this might change. This upcoming week is fine with me as I have several days off
