those times are prime-time for the Americas.

Also, for USA, that is a long holiday week.

Please excuse me for recommending pushing that back 6 hours.  :)

Hi TD,

We actually specifically chose this period as it is our lowest traffic period, globally, in the entire week, every week.

So, in the interests of the majority, this is why this particular time frame was chosen.

Regards,

SC

I think this translates into Sunday night in the U.S., and I can vouch for Sunday nights being pretty dead.  I try not to think about what it means that I know this ...

Heh. Rill, it says you're commited!

Not sure what this says to everyone's  employers, though Wink

Saturday and Saturday are, on average, 30% quieter than Monday through Friday...

And 0200 through 0800 are the lowest times of 24-hr cycle.

And the deadest spot of them all is the time we've chosen, which is why it was chosen.

Regards,

SC

Will it be down the entire time or is that just an estimated start and end time?

What happened to Sunday? Please don't tell me we lost Sunday... Sunday is fun day. I don't think I could take two consecutive Saturdays with my job! Cry

Sorry SC. I tried to resist but couldn't! Wink LOL
