US Primetime KOTH
« on: July 25, 2016, 10:54:04 AM »
As some of you know I have been in training to become the new US KOTH CM. My training is complete and I'd like your input on what time you think would be the best to get the most people into KOTH. I know PST AHers haven't been able to attend KOTHs in a while because we have only been able to run the earlier KOTH.

I was thinking 9 or 10 EST.

Thoughts???

I suggest that it goes back to the 9:00pm est/edt time slot for Saturday night... although I am ok with 10:00 pm, but then you might lose some east coast players possibly...

I like it.  Only downside I can see is it could run awfully late if it turns into a really long one which can happen with better attendance.  It doesn't happen that often though that I've seen.

I agree with tc  6pm pst 9pm est early morning aussie sunday would cover most of the times that guys have been missing out on.   

Im also tempted to keep the 3pm est 8pm gmt slot open on a saturday as that so far has had the best attendance.  more so than friday koth.

Just make sure you get your dates in early so other events and CMs, that don't bother to think of other events, don't screw you out of the date you want.
Even when we had our routine going there were times KOTH got shut out on certain months, nice 'teamwork.'
Good luck, buy aspirin!!!
