Cargo hauler/Fifties schedule overlap

Post by DavidWomby »

Coming so fast after the Mbox GB, is there anybody else who might prefer these two GBs overlap a bit less on the schedule? I can see myself getting a bit stressed over those 3 GBs if I sign up to all three as currently scheduled.

Just asking.

Might be an idea. I'm also in the Zero GB so it could mean four or five GB's running together, at least at some point. Can adapt to this if needed though.

It's an unfortunate feature of GBs that the ones we find appealling can overlap. Longer GBs would allow more potential for participation in these cases.

Sounds like some careful planning will be required if you are involved in multiple GB's at the same time.

The Matchbox GB should be over pretty quickly. I find those kits fall together.

The new Guidelines are posted; they allow longer GBs amongst other things.

The FAQ notes that GBLs of already scheduled GBs can adapt them to the new Guidelines, if they wish.

The Guidelines also say the GBC (me) can allow deviations to handle exceptional circumstances such as might be caused by trying to expand or move already scheduled GBs.
