Need opinion on future contest start times

[WNY]

Hello all, As many of you know, we run a contest every few weeks. I appreciate those who participate. I have received a couple PM's lately however asking if it would be possible to move future contests that are held on a weeknight to 9:00PM EST instead of 8:00PM EST. There are some forum members who are from the Western part of the US who are not even home from work yet when the contest starts. That is something I honestly did not give much thought to and I feel is a valid point. I would like a few opinions from members if they think running the contest at 9:00PM EST is ok and not too late. I think that is a bit more fair and would give other people a shot at winning who normally wouldn't be home from work yet. I look forward to any feedback. Thanks

It'd be fine with me. That seems like a fair thing to do.

I like the later time.
Congrats Tiny, hope you like the screwdriver - that's what I mainly use now.

9PM should work for most of the US - not that we easterners are begging for competition mind u , but it sounds like a good time for you to run it.

Thank you. I was hoping for an unbiased opinion from the Easterners. I hope to work with a couple manufacturers and expand the prize offerings at some point in the future.
