Hello there,
I hope this message finds you well and in good spirits. I’m reaching out today to open scheduling discussions for our upcoming Underused Farm Premier League match. In the spirit of good sportsmanship, I want to ensure that we’re fully aligned on finding a time that is mutually convenient, respectful of our respective commitments, and conducive to putting forward our best performances. To that end, I’ll be as thorough and clear as possible in laying out my availability, preferences, and expectations.
First, for clarity: I am located in the GMT+1 time zone. All times I propose or refer to will be based on GMT+1 unless otherwise noted. To avoid any miscommunications, I encourage us both to double-check time conversions where necessary, especially if you are based in a different region.
As for my availability:
I’m pleased to report that my schedule is very flexible for most of the upcoming week. Specifically, I am fully open on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. On each of these days, I can accommodate matches across a wide range of times — morning, afternoon, or evening. Whether you prefer an early start, a midday match, or something later into the evening, I am more than willing to adjust. If you have particular time preferences based on when you feel you perform best, please feel free to let me know; I’ll do my best to match that to ensure we both have the best possible environment for our game.
To reiterate for clarity:
Wednesday: Completely free, any reasonable time.
Thursday: Completely free, any reasonable time.
Friday: Completely free, any reasonable time.
You may suggest any time within these three days, and I will almost certainly be able to confirm. I am also happy to give priority to whatever part of the day works best for you. I would, however, appreciate a little heads-up (ideally 12 hours or more) if you are proposing an early morning or late-night match, just to ensure I am properly rested and ready.
Now, regarding the weekend:
While I recognize that weekends are often the default option for many players, I want to note that weekend availability is possible but not preferred. Saturdays and Sundays tend to be less predictable for me, with various personal and social commitments cropping up. That said, I am not completely unavailable — if the weekend is truly the only viable option for you, I am willing to make it work with proper planning.
Tentatively speaking:
Saturday: I could potentially play in the late morning to early afternoon (roughly 10 AM to 2 PM GMT+1), but this is not set in stone and would benefit from early confirmation.
Sunday: Sunday is trickier but could be possible with enough notice, again preferably in the late morning window.
Given my strong weekday flexibility, I would gently encourage us to aim for Wednesday through Friday if at all possible. This would help create a much smoother and less stressful experience for both of us and allow us to approach the match fully focused and prepared.
Communication preferences:
I am happy to coordinate through whichever method is easiest for you — whether that be forum PMs here, Discord messages, or another reasonable platform. I’ll strive to respond promptly and keep our communication clear and straightforward. Timely updates, especially if circumstances change, are much appreciated, and I will of course extend the same courtesy to you should anything unforeseen arise.
Final quick recap:
Time Zone: GMT+1.
Primary Availability: Wide open on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (morning, afternoon, or evening).
Secondary / Conditional Availability: Possible but not preferred on Saturday and Sunday, with limited windows (preferably late morning).
Preferred Contact Methods: Flexible (forum PM, Discord, etc.).
General Preference: Scheduling during the midweek is highly preferred for both flexibility and match quality.
Please feel free to suggest whatever time works best for you based on the above! I am confident we can find a time that suits us both smoothly. Thank you very much for taking the time to read through this admittedly lengthy message — I just wanted to make sure all details are laid out clearly to make scheduling as easy as possible.
Looking forward to hearing from you and setting up what I’m sure will be a great match!
Warm regards,
olivia
