The Great Shadow Council Calendar
So I had this idea.
We need a list of ALL events that occupy people's time. We need a giant calendar with every guild meeting, weekly rp event, guild raid, etc, etc. Anything that repeats on the same general time each week.
When finished, someone who is planning an RP event can easily tell when the best day/time to hold it would be. Lets reduce conflicts and put this info out there.
Note: this is not a replacement for the event calendar. That should always be used to promote and remind of your events.
If posting with info, please include the following
Guild name
Type of event
How often the event reoccurs
Time
Date
Example:
The Ghost Scions have their weekly raid night every Friday night at 6:30 pm st to 11 pm st.
Big thanks to Tavvy!



I am going to make a nifty
I am going to make a nifty looking generic-month calendar, and will post the events on their proper days with the time listed. Elrin will insert the calendar in his first post there, and I'll keep it updated by re-uploading the file. It really would help to be able to see where everyone is when, whether we're looking for RP or looking to schedule an event of our own!
And I wrap my fear around me like a blanket...

Based on Larosa's suggestion
Based on Larosa's suggestion below:
The Dragoons' meeting is always in the Petitioner's Chamber of the Stormwind Keep, and open to the public, though structured.
The Meddler meetings are in the bottom level of Aerie Peak (where the sprite darter quest fellow is), and likewise open to the public, and a bit less structured than Dragoon meetings.

Just a friendly suggestion but making a public calendar on Google Calendar, might not be a bad way to track this kind of thing in an easy manner for a large group of people.

Can I suggest putting a location if the RP event is of the public nature? It's great knowing when things are happening, but it helps to have a place to go if you want to try and get involved.
This will also let people know who are scheduling an event in which areas the event is already happening so places don't get double booked and can even play off the other by arranging to have their event nearby.
For Raids and such, I don't know if the person would want to put a location, especially if it's not an open-to-anyone event, but having a meeting place listed would be helpful for people who would want to find someone and maybe try and get in to the raid if you have spots open.
One of the reasons why I want
One of the reasons why I want to do a homemade calendar instead of a Google calendar is so that things like location can be clearly listed - which is very important for open RP events! The idea behind this is that it's ShC RP events at a *glance* - something big bold and simple to read. I was gonna do some painting tonight before raid, but I think I'll try to get this together first!

Event Type: Guild and affiliates-only in character conflict. RP-PvP events in preparation for Cataclysm's open war.
Date/Time: Mondays at 5 ST
Location: Announced each week. - to get involved if you have a militant RP character whose motivations run alongside ours, contact myself or a Nightsabre officer such as Navires, Amoona, Aquanus or Soto.
((A caveat - those who attend and organize this weekly event try to avoid griefing low level areas, camping vendors or questgivers, or ruining others' times, so locations tend to be out of the way after an initial strike, encouraging combatants to get into it preferably out of range of NPCs those uninvolved may wish to use. If you're on the other side, we ask that you respect this and fight outside of towns, and if you're on our side, respect it also. This is about epic in character combat, glorying in skill and RP motivations. This isn't about ruining the experience of passersby.))

The style/design of this is really nice and simple to read, excellent. I am a bit confused by the "Week 1" through "Week 4" thing - how do I know which week it is right now? I'd personally be happy to see just one page of this as the standard repeating RP events/raids, so I can randomly crash them on a weekly basis! (Joking, Guild People, I won't burst into closed guild meetings ;) )
You're going to be adding infrequent events each time there is one? Won't that become a chore? You could probably just publish this once with the meetings/raids/events that are standardised, then we can depend on the Upcoming Events thingie already on Haven for the infrequent events?

I won't be updating it for any one-off events, only the kinds of things already seen here - stuff that happens every week, two weeks, etc. I'm glad it's easy to read because I kept having to nudge the text around and didn't want to make it too small!

Updated the calendar to just show a normal week. If we get some bi-monthly or something events I will update it again with a larger version. Please feel free to continue posting any and all regular events that haven't been mentioned yet. I can always make it bigger.
Also, it's all stretched out until either Elrin or a mod takes the dimension info out of the image properties in the posts. I'm going to be keeping it to 850 wide (the space it occupies on my monitor between the sidebars) so the image property dimensions aren't really needed.
Thanks!

Is there any way a mod can somehow get this more notice? I may seem vain asking for more views on my own idea (and Tavvy's great work), but I think this is a really helpful tool for those planning events.
Just take out the dimensions
Just take out the dimensions entirely and it'll be fine. It's still a bit long for the weekly one, and if I change it you won't have to touch it again.
I'd love to see this stickied somehow (but not on the front page?)

Updated to reflect some recent changes:
I changed the time for Choppin' Block for it's new start at 6ST, and moved the Ghost Scion's open guild meeting to Friday at 5ST, where we've been having it for a while.
I took off the OOTNS PVP raid, as it seemed from the recent thread that was no longer active.
I added the Mechano-hog club in the hopes that it's still as happenin' as it was when I stopped by.
If anyone has any clue about whether the Horde Story Night or Scout's Hall events are still going on, please let me know.
Any other changes or adjustments I missed welcome!
