Default What time do people play?

Just a random question I thought of throwing out there. What time of the day/night do you tend to play the game at? The answers I think have alot to do with how high your ping is, based on whether most people in your time zone share the same habits as you.

For myself, I work nights, so my prime playing time (midnight to 3am) would probably seem late to 9-5ers. Indeed, I tend to find myself playing with Australians a large amount of the time (I'm Ontario based, so this does not bode well for my ping).
Interesting to see when other people prefer to play.

anytime i have free time to play. day or night.

what does ping have to do with it? with server-side hit detection, i'm not at a disadvantage even if i get spikes to 600 from a download starting.

Really? When my computer gets choppy, I really start sucking. Hit detection is one thing, but when my rifle can only be aimed by the twitchy hand of bad connection, they wont be detecting many of my hits.
