NA people are troublesome. The difference between East and West coast is what? 7 hours?
By comparison, difference between EST and CET is only 6 hours, lol.
If you want to know the best starting time - there's no universal answer and you'd have to judge it case by case depending on the players that participate.
However, a reasonable time I think could be [22:00 CET / 16:00 EST / 9:00 PST] just due to the fact that most people are awake then. Even though, realistically, can only expect 1 group to be home and not at work at that hour.
Well if you count Hawaii as the West Coast then yes, at 5 hours difference.Quote:

Anyways, seems like 4 or 3 PM EST (Or 15:00 EST in 24-hour format) might be some sort of sweet spot but I really don't see a way for everyone not to be at work and be available, especially since anyone can presumably have any kind of job with any kind of hours.

My bad. I assumed Google would give me the correct time but it didn't if I searched "west coast" instead of "PST". Why Google even gives time when it's not updated :laugh:Quote:

Make a god damn multi choice poll you fool.
Most of Europe is at 1am during 12gmt, while a bit of Eastern Europe is at 2am. I assume the worst time is 3am/4am, but 1am is okay. And Europeans are used to that kind of awfulness. 16:00est is awesome for Europe but awful for Americans because everyone is in their 9-5s no? But I suppose im also good with that time. Being on for eod / near eod is most important. And 1am Europe allows for that if ppl stay up until 12 (and works perfectly if they stay up until 1)Quote:

Stop bullying the Europeans. :ban:Quote:

everyone basically tries to make it as late as possible for the Europeans and as early as possible for the Americans, so everyone gets to suffer ^^.
Best bet is probably make the signup thread a poll and ask your players specifically.
A lot of people said 6am CST but the last 3 games I've played I've posted around that time and was basically talking to the void.
A poll! What a lovely idea.Quote:
