Next Conversion?

I wasn't too sure here to place this, but will there be a Round 6 for conversions? Honestly, I came back to my forum after two years and learned of the new Zetaboards coming out last year, and as luck would have it, I missed this month's Conversion Round by 6 days.. XD So, I just wanted to ask if there'd be a Sixth round, and if there's any estimated date for such a thing.

Thank you~

No idea when it will be, but there will be one.

I'd have a guess of one to two months though. :)

Does that mean round 5 is over of conversions? Because My board still hasn't converted?

Yes, round five was completed last week. If your board wasn't included it's either because you didn't opt in for the asap conversion, or you opted in too late.

That being said, we're hoping to be able to increase the frequency of conversions in the future, and eventually get to the point of them being almost instant when you decide you want to convert.

I'm still not clear on why you have to do the conversions in rounds. Is it intensive on the servers or something?

Instant conversions seems like it'd be one heck of a coding-problem... I can wait till the next conversion, but I too would like to know why there are rounds. o.o

Because doing a bunch at a time means they don't have to do a couple each day all year, instead they do a crap load all at once!

Well, I don't think the converter would run constantly. The best option, I think, would to have it run on a daily, every-other-day, or weekly rounds, doing them regularly. I mean, doing them in the large batches can be a problem, but when you have a list compiled over the course of the week and then just run through them it should take a lot less time and cause a lot less problems. Unless more problems arise, which they will, as always :lol:

So is there a manual element involved. I was under the impression it was entirely automated. What does a conversion entail?
