hm... guests are counted as online users... someone could just set their IE homepage to the forums, and then logout, and open hundreds of browsers...

naaa, wouldn't work.  as long as you're still on the same IP, the forums have no way of knowing whether you have one window or 400 windows open

I am PST, which is GMT-8.

When GMT is 12PM, AEDST is 4AM.

I prefer to be online between 6PM and 12AM PST, which is between 2AM and 8AM GMT.

I feel so individual-less. Now even my posts are standardized.

It shouldn't be any later like the 9,10 or 11th as that is the military weekend and users like me have reserve duty... But then again I don't see delaying it.

I am sleeping or at work during the week so if I have Cable and just leave my comp connected is that good enough?

[demon442]

Im at GMT-6.  I usually like being on from 9-ish to 1 AM, and since its on a saturday I should be on.

[CP5670]

I am free from 11AM EST (GMT-5) to 4PM and again from 9PM to 4AM for at least the next few months. We need one of those spam threads that grow at like five posts a minute when lots of people are online that day.

hm... what if everyone set their school/work homepages to the forums?

[Stunaep]

That's not the point, really, now is it?

[Knight Templar]

Is it? I'm really not sure anymore.

[Impurial]

Steakman, looks like your times are causing the problems.  Keep it on the 7th and move your time where everyone else can get to it.  Sorry Steakman, you have to suffer a little or otherwise it looks like a no-show.

So if you board monkeys can make the 7th, post your times... we'll go for the most popular one.

Happy 3rd HLP!

I'll make time. Will you?

[castor]

16:30..21:30 GMT

I'm GMT+1, I'm taking a test (again) on jan 7, so I won't be here that much in person. but I guess I could leave the comp on refreshing the hlp forum main page from about 06.00 GMT (that's in the morning) to whatever time the computer melts down or I decide it's too noisy.

or whatever.

[Setekh]

Yeah, I figured as much, Impurial. Me thinks I'll be pulling an all-nighter of sorts... them's the breaks being AEST.

[Xelion]

I think that if you want to gain more attention wouldn't it be a good idea to place it on the home page

GMT8+ I'll be around if necessary

[pasti]

Ok, I'm Gmt +1.00 (Sarajevo, Skopie, Sofia, Warsaw)

[Kosh]

I am GMT -08:00. Online time varies, usually here at night though.

[Carl]

my computer is almost always on, so i can just leave the browser on the forums, though i'll try to actually be there.

Interesting idea.  Suppose we create just such a thread, and we ask everyone to make at least one post in it.  Then, at the end of the day, we can compare the number of unique posts to the number of people online.

[Knight Templar]

Or, for something new, we could replace thread with forum, and posts with threads.
