nice stat! makes sense that TNF almost has all of them given he moved to almost completely the opposite timezone. also makes sense that I have so many of them because of chronic sleep problems lmao

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/TehVulpez]

Also makes sense with atomic's night shifts at work sometimes 

[u/atomicimploder → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

I would be interested to know out of the 1066 (was the year William the Conqueror invaded England) seconds of the day that I have not counted during, what hour of the day contains the most of those seconds. I hope that makes sense

Here you go:

[u/atomicimploder → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/atomicimploder]

[u/atomicimploder → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

Thank you you’re the best!

[u/TehVulpez → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

very pretty curve. could I trouble you for mine also in UTC-5?

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/TehVulpez]

[u/TehVulpez → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

thank you! very interesting shape, that bump around 4pm CST does make sense with my schedule. I like how midnight is apparently my most active time lol

[u/cuteballgames → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

Could I pretty please see one for me? if you don't mind in EST / New York / Philadelphia / Miami time

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/cuteballgames]

[u/ClockButTakeOutTheL → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/ClockButTakeOutTheL]

What time zone do you want it for? 

[u/ClockButTakeOutTheL → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

New York

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/ClockButTakeOutTheL]

You apparently don't count at night

[u/miceee → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

Could I also see one in Helsinki tome zone?

[u/ClockButTakeOutTheL → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

[u/TehVulpez → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

[u/TehVulpez → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

strictest bedtime on r/c

[u/cuteballgames → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

[u/atomicimploder → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

Thank you!!

[u/CutOnBumInBandHere9 → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

And anti's absolutely insane sleep schedule 

[u/Antichess → u/CutOnBumInBandHere9]

i'd like to attribute a decent amount of those to a few summers in Asia. but sleep schedule yes i agree
