Event signup and scheduler tools

[sabinn]

Hi all. I have a small group of friends and we get together when we can and play. We all have demands on our time (spouse, kids, mortgage) so our time isn't as flexible as it used to be.

I'm trying to find a simple online signup solution where my friends and I can simply submit what days work best. That's it.

Right now we all call each other and level of miss-coms for who said what and when "broken telephone" are getting out of hand. I think a simple "click here if your available on monday" type of form would clean things up.

Google Docs has the ability to create Forms. It not the cleanest solution tho.
Wiggio and Cozi have elements in there schedulers that would help but it's massive overkill on features.

A simple signup sheet online is all I need. I'll even host it if I have to. Anyone know of a solution?

This is great! The biggest value-add here is the integration of a the Android app (free) and iOS app ($2.99).

@MaciekA - whenisgood is very simple and direct as well, an excellent solution. For me, the mobile apps add greater accessibility for folks that would rather use a mobile device then sit at a computer.


Thanks for your responses guys. Greatly appreciated

Why not integrate a scheduling and sign up feature in the Games and Events section.

When a host logs in to create a new event the format is consistent for all events, for example, "Event Name" "Host""Place""Date" and other details, etc.

As ASC members sign up it is automatically posted to a master list. If a member cancels it automatically updates.

Over on Ottawa Valley Airsoft we have our own event system set up.

It allows our local hosts to have self sign ups. You can see one of our latest games at http://www.ottawavalleyairsoft.ca/fo...read-1253.html

Its a great system and was designed and built by one of our local players from scratch.

I am not sure how the logistics would work for such a large site as ASC but it works great for OVA.
