Which multiplayer time is best for you?

When setting up a time to meet for multiplayer flying it would be good to know what the best time would be for everyone to participate. Please vote for the day and time that suits you best. And leave a post telling where you are voting from....ie, USA, UK, Korea, Russia....etc.

US. Saturday morning are good for me. Also, some weekday afternoons are good also and Friday nights.

Does this poll show my location? If it doesn't then a time such as My morning may not be any good compared to morning in another country. Just a thought.

The poll does not show a location. That is why it would be nice to post a location to give us an Ideal where the votes are coming from. To list every known location would be an immense undertaking. Having an exact location poll would be great....but getting a general Ideal of the day and time will greatly help. Consider that starting from the west coast and traveling eastward time increases...3hrs ahead on east coast, 7hrs ahead for UK, 9hrs ahead for the Netherlands....etc. if a multiplayer time was started on Saturday evening at 9pm on the west coast it would be 6am Sunday morning in the Netherlands. Most people would probably be asleep....except for Rami, lol.

Please vote to give us a general Ideal of when most players are available for multiplayer flying.

Thank You and Good Flying

To be honest, just posting locations (apart from the actuall votes) isn't gonna make this poll any clearer.

Tip: let everyone vote their GMT time (easy to calculate). And instead of saying moring, evening say: from 0:00 to 4:00 GMT, 4:00 to 8:00 GMT, 12:00 to 16:00 GMT.

Making it blocks of 4 hours will increase accuracy.

One of many GMT sites:

By the way, I think this is a really good initiative, am very curious to the outcome. But right now not sure if 5 votes for morning actually means 5 people at the same time...

- after edit -
Just dsicovered one more handicap, you can only vote once...
Would be better if we could somehow vote multiple times or so...

Just had a thought, would it be possible for the server that monitors which servers are online and how many players are online to store that data so it can result into some graph showing the times at which there are most servers / most players? That would be neat. That way we can all check for the best times to go online.
