    Default Anyone use a good program for scheduling games around work schedules?

    Topic. I'm trying to find a program my players can mark their schedules, see when people are free, that kind of thing. I am currently using a google calendar at this point, but it's very clunky, and no one likes it. I'm striking out finding anything better though, and getting frustrated by said striking out. If anyone knows of something better, I would greatly appreciate the assist. Thank you!

    My group uses doodle. It takes a little bit of work to set up but it works fairly well for us

    My group uses facebook. It's a little thing, you probably never heard of it.

    It might be unweildy with a lot of people, but a shared Google Calendar where people upload their schedules is pretty easy.
