Title: What time do you usually visit EHOL?
Post by: Aya Mikage on September 04, 2003, 05:44:15 am: Hey guys!

i was wondering...
since maybe some of you are halfway-round the world from me, i was wondering if what time do you usually log-on to EHOL

Please indicate your country time also...

THANKS!!

But the time in which I do that is very spread out... I mean, I'm checking now, it's 8:40AM EST and I have a long day yet. I'll probably check one more before I go to bed, though I won't expect to be home until somewhere close to midnight. The Thursday schedule is something like this (all times are EST):

11:50AM = Catch bus to downtown Pittsburgh
12:45PM = Catch bus to school
2:30PM - 9:05/9:55PM = Classes and then wait time for bus (depending on which of the two late buses I manage to align on)
11:20PM = Back in town, getting on bus for home

So, yeah.

Post by: Spanner on September 04, 2003, 10:04:43 am: I usually check these boards when I get home from work (between 5:00 and 6:00 pm, Central Standard Time, in the US), before I go to bed (between 11:00 pm and Midnight), and periodically throughout the day when I'm supposed to be working ^^; (between 7:30 am and 4:30 pm - yeah, shame on me :P).

I shouldn't try to rationalize it, but I'd probably go nuts if I didn't have something to distract myself with from time to time while working... But it's still a bad habit. I'm doing it right now.

Post by: Lord God Jinnai on September 04, 2003, 01:39:55 pm: Visit EHOL? HAH! I LIVE here! Little does Rob know, my legions and I have made a cozy little abode in his attic. We then tap into his internet connection and monitor all the goings on regarding this site.

This would be a schway abode, 'cept for the fact that Groucho keeps hogging the bathroom!

Groucho: @#$!%$#2

I don't care! Stop eating all that fiber, then, if you're wimpy stomach can't handle it!

Post by: larewen_evenstar on September 04, 2003, 02:42:26 pm: I live in scotland. So I'm on GMT (I cant rememebr how to spell the first word in that, so I'll leave it there. :P) Which means, that, everyone on EST is five hours behind me in time.

I'm at school from 9:00am 'til 3:45pm, but dont get home until 4:10pm if I'm walking.
I'm usually on EHOL around about 7:00pm- 10pm.

Except for weekends and holidays, when I am on randomly during the day. :P

Post by: theravenisdead on September 04, 2003, 07:00:16 pm: Whenever I'm online, I check the forums roughly every 30 mins for new stuff.

As for when Im online, I dont usually have a set schedule (Ive been essentially a professional slacker since January ;D ) So my 'uptime' fluctuates. Sometimes im up all night online, sometimes im online during the day.

I'm on the Eastern Time Zone (Ottawa, Canada), but that has really very little meaning in my life ^^;

Post by: MrWhat on September 04, 2003, 10:18:43 pm: Times are USA CST (Springfield IL), EHOL time -0100, GMT -0600.

I usually log in, to post messages and PotM captions, Monday thru Thursday, after I eat dinner, roughly around 6:30 or 7:00.

(Why am I posting so late tonight? Because I was just visiting my grandmother at the hospital. I swear, you can't make this stuff up. But don't worry, she's fine, and she's going home tomorrow.)

I "stop by," as a guest, Monday thru Thursday, at random times in the evenings; and most weekdays, at work, over the lunch hour. Personal Internet use is tolerated at my workplace over the lunch hour, but it's forbidden during working hours.

I'm still mostly off-line, Friday night thru Sunday night. I'm spending almost every weekend out of town, at Mom's house, helping her with things (she's legally blind and in poor health). I have Internet access from there, but I'm using my father's old dial-up account, and running Win98 and Mozilla on a P100 laptop. (The expression "molasses in February" comes to mind.) I have posted to EHOL from there, but it takes a lot of patience to do it.

There'll be a quiz next Tuesday, so I hope you were taking notes ::)

Title: Re: What time do you usually visit EHOL?
Post by: Saucer on September 05, 2003, 07:59:40 pm: It's pretty random for me. Sometimes I check at work, but usually I check after work. Anywhere between 6PM-12AM Pacific time. And possibly any time during the day Sunday. Sometimes I skip a day or two though.
Title: Re: What time do you usually visit EHOL?
Post by: mark_engels on September 06, 2003, 11:58:10 am: Most every afternoon after work, either before or after dinner (6PM CDT, GMT -06:00, Central United States.)

I usually don't post anything until Saturday or Sunday mornings. I surf while my wife sleeps. Keeps harmony in the Engels' household that way.

Post by: El The Istari on September 06, 2003, 03:56:27 pm: Wow, I didn't know you were married either...

Well, I'm on Greenwich Mean Time, so let's see...

7 AM - Must... Get... Out... Of... Bed...
8 AM - Must... Get... Out... Of... House...
9 AM - 4PM - School (X-D) or getting home from school.
4 PM - 7 PM - Kept off computer from father. Ick.
7:30 PM - 8:30 - If I finish dinner first, I can get on before anyone else.
9 PM - I get sent to bed. X-D *Grumble* _{Not fair, stupid parents, "not enough sleep", "School tommorow"... I never get to sleep until after 11 anyway... Not enough net time...}

And no Lar, please, no proverbs... ;)

Title: Re: What time do you usually visit EHOL?
Post by: executor82 on September 07, 2003, 07:14:04 pm: Randomly. Mostly I'm just on the net having EHOL running in the background, looking up and reading the posts from time to time. But lately I've got less time to be on. :-/

Post by: dooky on September 08, 2003, 06:08:44 am: Yes! I am also GMT! (Although aren't we still in Britsih Summer Time at the moment?) I usually check the site between 10.30am and noon, but only on a weekday ^_^
