Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Ah so nice to hear from someone else in the United States haha! I'm CST, weekend is best for me as well, and I think either time works. Thanks for getting in touch!
I apologize, but since I work during the day Monday through Friday, and am kinda burned out in the evenings, I'd appreciate if we could still do sometime Noon to 5 Saturday or Sunday
