    You play against a variety of different associations from all over the world.
    Also in Leagues there are teams from different time zones who rearrange games to awkward times to gain an advantage.
    I've had games rearranged on me to 5am in the morning when of course I'll be asleep.

    I am near the east coast of Australia but most of my League/CL/Cup opponents are from Turkey and Russia with maybe a couple from Asia. My Asso games are again mainly against Turkish and Russian teams. Game times for away games are just not watchable for me but thats the way it goes. Time zones might help for League/CL/Cup matches but Asso is a different thing. My Asso has 2 Australian of Finnish decent living in Australia and 2 players from Finland and 1 from Norway so I dont know how a time zone could be used.

    Interesting John, yes I see your point with associations.
    The idea was so that each 'zone' would enable more players online at the time of your matches, with matches being played at certain resonable times, but with assoc having managers from different time zones would require different approach.

    My assoc has players from UK so we are online about the same time, but I access the site anywhere between 6am and 2am (20 hour spread) but would appreciate games to be played at certain resonable times (not when I'm sleeping)
