    Default Timezones and play times!

    It would be nice to have a way to know what timezone everyone and possible usually when they are on. It is just nice to have to know who is around or the time difference to know when most people get on. This is voluntary, so no pressure, just thinking of a way to also help organize things! Maybe BoB will want to turn this into a spreadsheet later, but for now I will just update this post (or mods feel free to update it too!)

    Feel free to share your info (region, GMT different, in-game name, and usual play time)!

    "Atlantic" UTC -4

    Bleys Maynard & Despard Silverbranch (Citizen Bleys): Weekdays: 10am-12pm (UTC: 2pm-4am); Weekends: ???

    This thread is a great idea! I think we should share our usual play time in UTC as well, so everyone has a convenient metric for comparison.

    Name Humphrey Squibbles
    Timezone New Zealand, NZ UTC+12
    Usual play time Weekdays: Somewhere around 18:00 - 00:00 (UTC 07:00 - 13:00)
    Weekends: Anywhere between the hours of 12:00 - 04:00 (UTC 01:00 - 17:00)

    Playing time: Normally during workdays 8-10pm (7- 9 pm UTC), weekends whenever I have time, mostly friday evening

    Btw something went very wrong with the time here, isn't Ireland and GB the same time? And Bob is definitely one hour behind me..if you also have summer / winter time that is o.o

    GMT -8. Free usually Tuesday through Thursday. I work weird hours and nights so I'll likely be on the same time as the AUS/NZ/EU/ME folk.
