Well, I think more specifics would have been helpful. So far, it seems like everything is going up early in the day EST. There's no way everyone can be online all day for nine days straight, not even taking timezones into account. The vast majority of people work during the day, or, in the case of other timezones, need to be in bed for work the next morning while their group members are up and around. There really was no way to predict this from what the mods said on the sign up. They just said that anyone who signed up needed to be available, not that this would be a time sensitive event. I'm sure a lot of people assumed that it meant they'd need to be available to tag or boomerang, like with the dreaming event, not that lagging behind at all could mean their group comes in last like this.
