To further complicate matters, I can find more than one calendar (three?) that list games, and they don't seem to match, AND they show the games in GMT+0 time, and even then they don't appear on the correct day... I've checked my settings which seem to be in order so I can't figure that problem out yet.
I'm starting to think that maybe
A. I am doing something wrong (highly probable)
B. The calendar interface is trickier than it looks to use (maybe?)
Or C. The community for FG isn't very accepting of newbs (unlikely, as these forums would suggest otherwise)
I am very excited to get into a game (I aspire to buy an ultimate forever license and do some DMing if it's as fun as the software looks to help make it!) but I am so far a bit downtrodden from my failed attempts to find a game like this one (which just seems like I rolled a natural 1 on my timing and missed this post when you were still LF players)
