Actually, I can change the schedule over the weekend if you'd like. What does everyone think would be a good time to start/end the Days?

Hmm...the deadline right now is quite perfect for me, but perhaps I'm the only one.

Maybe we should make it an hour later? That may help Gil and xyzzy who are on MST and CST. I don't know when Sixth usually gets up, but an 8am deadline isn't so early as 7. Of course, this could be problematic for the Europeans...I don't know how much of a late-nighter you guys are...

If you do change the deadline, I ask you to please please not make it any earlier than it is now. Because then I'll have to start voting early too, and I'm sure it won't be very convenient for the other Americans either...

Man, these time zones are annoying. I think no matter what we do, the deadline's going to be problematic for somebody. Sigh...

An hour later would give me a chance to be around at deadline. No garuntees, but I do get off work early when the ratios are low. Or high, depending on how you look at it.... I agree with Brinn, though, earlier is not better.

xyzzy is still gossiping in the Green Dragon.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I get home at 1830 CDT (GMT-5), or 2330 GMT, so any time after that is good. If that's too late, I'll just vote sometime around 1900.

...My schedule stinks!

Speaking strictly from previous games, 6 PM eastern time (10 PM GMT) is usually the best compromise all around. It gives a good number of people in the Western hemisphere time to post after work/school, while not being too late at night for most people in the Eastern hemisphere. (The exceptions being Lhuna and Nilp, but not much can be done there.)

Why not start with Day 3? It'd help move things along.

I quite like the deadline where it is .....I couldn't stay later realistically... .dunno about Noggin and Legate ..even later fro them but at least they are at home (as far as I know...)
