    Basketball traders last to Wakeup

    I have noticed that very rarely, I can find basketball traders are the very last to wake up. Last to go to sleep. Anyone really have an answer?

    Maybe it's because this is the basketball season, because the vast majority of basketball collectors are younger (16-25 range), and alot of traders may be on the west coast, where it's only 9PM when it's midnight on the east coast...just a few of the more likely possibilities.

    i was also going to add to this that maybe during basketball seasons a lot of west coast games are on @ 10 and people watch those and if they're unemployed or in school they don't come online that early in the morning.

    could also be that a lot of people are on night-day work schedules where they sleep in the day and work late-night through to the next afternoon.

    Sleep is for the weak :)

    I'm on here at 8am everyday, but that is already 11am in the East coast so it seems late

    Personally, I work 40-80 hours a week depending on the demands from my job. Sometimes I am gone for weeks at a time. I response when I can. I will never check this site at work. Looks bad, right?

    Mountain Standard time Wake up around 5:30, Noticed not to many basketball traders. Leave around 7:30 am -would be (9:30 eastern still not many traders). Guest have to wait for west caosters to wake up.

    Have to do more evening or weekend trades.

    I'd never really thought much about this before..when I had my normal hours job, I would get on SCF after 5 PM CST and before midnight. Now that I don't have that position anymore, I've gone back to my natural schedule of waking up in the late afternoon and going to sleep around 4 AM, so I can be on at any time now from roughly 2 PM to 4 AM CST.
