As part of the 'Believe in the Future' Campaign and in support of a classic-XF style XF3 movie, the Skype Files will host a six-month long Mytharc Marathon. The marathon starts on May 2 and ends October 31. The schedule can be found below or at www.tinyurl.com/skypefiles. (Thanks to Avi, alleyphile, of XFN for putting together the beautiful chart) Contact me at Biglight (Moxed) or on skype at moxed42 if you want to join in! The green slots are sessions with Mytharc episodes, the blue ones are X-Files Holidays and the black ones are themed sessions.

FAQ ABOUT SKYPE FILES. 1) What are the Skype Files? - A synced, group watching of X-Files episodes with Philes from all over the world!
2) When? - Usually, every Saturday night at 9 pm EST. Occasionally we have International sessions at 5 pm EST. World Time Zones -- EST is "New York" time or GMT -5
3) What do I need to participate? - a. We use Skype, a free download (www.skype.com) to talk to each other (free!). The program has both voice and text-chat options. i. If you want to join the voice, you'll need HEADPHONES, speakers, and a microphone. There is some major static that occurs if you're not wearing headphones, so you'll want to wear a pair. We also ask that if you're watching XF on your TV and you're pariticpating in voice chat, you have the volume reduced on the TV so everyone else on the line doesn't hear your episode playing. ii. While a microphone is required t to speak in voice chat, you can still listen to the chat assuming that you have a pair of headphones and speakers. iii. There is a text-based chat that goes on simultaneously with voice. So, even if you can't talk, you can still join Skype-Files and participate in the chat.
b. Some form of the XF episode. If you don't have DVDs, we have internet links to the episodes so that you can join in.
c. MOST IMPORTANTLY: A love of X-Files and a sense of HUMOR.
3) How do you sync the episodes? - Very sophisticated technology has allowed us sync the episodes within +/- 10 seconds of each other. It is called COUNTING... and starts with: "X on Play" -- That is, pull up your episode menu, and put your cursor over Play 1 2 3 GO, and on GO we click Play!
4) What do you guys talk about? - Well. The goal of every episode watch is to stay on topic with the episode, but more often than not there are diversions into other episodes, XF in general, associated projects, actors/actresses/directors, philedom in general, anticipation for XF3, etc.
5) How many episodes do you watch? Usually, 1-2 episodes; but some philes will continue watching episodes together even when the "official" session is over
6) How can I join?? Download Skype. Click "Add Contacts" and search for moxed42. That's me! Send me a message saying you want to join the Skype Files and I'll add you to the call list. Alternatively, you can send me a message on BigLight with your Skype username.
7) How do the chats start? Basically, a little before 9 pm est, I'll open a group text chat, and shortly after, a voice chat. All you need to do is be online and I'll add you to the chat. Once you contact me for the first time, your name is added to a Skype File invite list.
8) Where do you have a schedule of episodes posted? The BEST way to keep updated with the Skype Files is to follow us on twitter (www.twitter.com) @skypephiles. I will also post the episodes for the upcoming week on Biglight.
9) What is "Hosting"? - The "Host" is whoever started the voice chat. Only the person who is hosting can invite more people to the voice conversation, but anyone can add someone else to the group chat.
10) PHILES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD?! Across the US, Canada, South America, Australia, Europe.... ALL OVER.
11) I think this could use more pineapple So do we: Add Pineapple
