In order to create kin events, we first need to know if people will be online to attend them. We will need a reply from ALL players telling us what days of the week they are mostly online and what times. This information will help us greatly in forming kin events that everyone can enjoy. RL always comes first and we are all aware that it can change things dramatically. We don't expect you to know when and what exact time you will be playing, but a rough estimation would help! Please convert times into EST (Server time)

I usually log in most days and stay online for a while, but the main factor that affects my taking part in kin events is my time zone. I'm in the UK, which is GMT+1 at the moment as it's "British Summer Time" (not that summer ever actually happens here, but that's beside the point  ). |

Updating to say with Hubby's new job in a month or so (After his training and his traveling begins) I will be able to start playing after the 5 ish dinner log at night and able to start joining in some of the evening events more.

Technically I'm Left Coast US, but my work and play schedules are all over the map, including weekends. So I'm largely a crapshot re long-range planning.  Best bet is that I'm rarely on between ~12:00-17:00 GMT or so, and more often the further from there you go. |

Tuesday through Saturday I'm on from around midnight to 6 a.m. Eastern Time (GMT-5). (Yes, I'm a night owl. =P) Sunday and Monday I'm on earlier, as early as 6 or 7 p.m. Eastern, till about 4 a.m.

I'm on the east coast, and I'm usually online between noon and 2am, sometimes a little later.

I'm playing from Sydney, Australia GMT+10 and play when I can in the afternoon. I'm clueless as to how to convert the time. Help needed if possible, thanks!

As best as I can reckon, Australia is 12 hrs ahead of east coast, so when it's 12 noon here, its midnight there.

West coast Australia is 12 hours ahead of server time; East coast is 14. So, if an event gets announced on server time, galburndaenelys needs to add 14 hours to work out what time to be present. (e.g. Thursday 8pm server time is Friday 10am Sydney time.)
Personally, my ultimate time to be on is Saturday, when my partner spends the day at work. I'm usually free from 9am to 5pm my time, so in regards to server time that's 9pm Friday through to Saturday morning.
Other days I'm usually on in both the mornings and evenings, so if there's an event happening in those times I'll do what I can to help out.

It depends on work schedules.
If I'm working mornings on I'm in afternoons, if I work late I'm on mornings.
Usually I get on around 10 or 11 AM server time because I get the option to work from home (depending on work loads) and have already gotten work done.
{Adding to the Australia time, need to add in the daylight savings switch so from now until September/October when we change clocks Sydney is 14 hours ahead, but after that it goes to 16 hours ahead (December-February North hemi goes back an hour, Australia goes ahead an hour). Just to confuse you all further...}

My schedule varies. Generally I am on afternoon to evening, but when work is busy I may not be on for a long stretch. I am in the EST timezone, which I also think is server time, not sure.
I likely won't be on on Wednesday and Friday nights, as they are date night's for me and my significant other.

I'm also on the East Coast of the US, so Eastern Time, *lives with Vendla*... I pop on at different periods throughout the day currently, and can attend most Kin events (if I remember)... until work says otherwise ;D
(I play Onnika, Bookwerm, and Morninglorie)

I love how you say *lives with Vendla* like you're describing a momentary emote such as *giggles*.
Anyway - I can almost always be found between the hours of 9pm and 12am Server Time, all through the week apart from Saturday, sometimes an hour earlier and potentially two or three hours later.
I have a fairly flexible work schedule (private students) and if an event is unique enough and published a week or two in advance, I can probably be there regardless of time.

Generally I'm on Mon-Sun 3-9pm EST. On weekends during the summer it could be all day or not at all depending on RL events and/or weather conditions. During the winter my hours will become more regular due to inactivity from outside events in RL.
