    Our DM sends us a link that allows him to list all the days he’s available, and that lets us list which of those days we’re able to attend.

    Pro: it allows us to automate scheduling conflicts into the history books.

    Con: our sessions are kinda far apart in time.

        That is literally the service we use, and it has worked well so far for us, so I guess your mileage may vary.

          Ah, my mileage was people put “No” or “Maybe” unless they were 1000% sure they could come, meaning there would’ve been a date to pin once every 3 months or so.

          Nah, in my opinion: Make them regular (like once every two weeks) and run a session as long as the GM and at least 3 players can come.
          Simple as.

            I guess our mileage is that most of us have a no for something they can’t or won’t reschedule, a maybe for something they can reschedule, and a yes for empty evenings. And most of us have enough empty evenings that we can reliably agree upon a date a few weeks in advance.

            With a previous group, we had a similar rule, though we only had three players, so that’s something.
