We come from all across the globe, in many different time zones, and each with our own very different schedules, but I would like to know when the people who are using the forum are most likely to be in the mini-chat. Hopefully this will give everyone an idea of when they will have the best chances of meeting someone there to talk to.

You can pick up to THREE time blocks in which you are MOST LIKELY to be browsing the forum and participating in the mini-chat. These times are in EASTERN STANDARD TIME (UTC-5). If you need help converting your time zone to EST for the purpose of this poll, here is an easy time zone converter: http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc

This poll is set up so that if your schedule changes you CAN come back and change your answers. Feel free to comment with more specific times that you are likely to be in the mini-chat.

I'm hoping admin will start a new section for scheduling chats: Where the charms can post a schedule of when they plan to be there so fans can meet up with them.

For now, I posted in the poll, Weekday and Weekend evenings 6 pm to 12 am and Weekend Mornings 6 am to 12 pm but I pop in various times. If we can get a new section started, I'll post a schedule. I've been in the mini chat quite a few times and had a blast each time. I'd love to have more fans/charms involved in it :)

Because I'm so far ahead time-wise of the majority of charms, afternoons and evenings are the best time for me, as that would be my evening and nighttime :)

Time Zones sure do make a difference. Thats why I try to be
available to chat at different times. I cannot post days ahead what time
I am going to be on, but most days i will be on in the morning, noon and evenings too.
Just hard to give an exact time.
Hugs, Alexus Lin

One other suggestion if I may...

Under the mini-chat window, there's a link that shows people in the chat "based on users in chat in the past hour". That's a pretty wide margin for error. Can that be narrowed down to say the 10-20 minute range?
