Update the Mumble time to 11am. Updated the recording list  ;D

Great job dude.  The guide etc to help people get started helps a ton so we don't have random people feedbacking into the audio etc by not using push to talk is a big help. 

Thank you for your work.  Lots of people around want to give ideas, but few want to get their hands dirty. :(

Thanks for the feedback  ;)

I've made some minor tweaks to the page.
Added the worldtimebuddy link and set it to show time slots for Virginia-USA, San Francisco-USA and Beijing-China time.
There is also the ability to add 1 more location so anyone else on the globe can search their time zone.

I also changed some verbiage and made additional font adjustments.

I'm not sure what the Chinese have voiced RE: a reasonable chat time, but IMO I'd think 9am EST would still be the best time slot for everyone.
It would be 9pm in their time zone and as for the peeps in western USA it would be 6am. Anyone listening in from Europe would be around Noon in their time zone.
It's a tough challenge  :P

This is EXACTLY why air traffic all use Zulu time. Perhaps we can switch to listing all times in UTC and letting people do their own math.

Keep in mind that this all changes next weekend with the end of Daylight Savings Time.
Dang!? UTC time changes next week!!! BIGGEST ANNOUCEMENT OF THE WEEK!!

Nice clean page, great job. I think with this and some standardized times we can see a even greater participation in the future.

9:00 AM + 1.5 hour = 10:30 AM ,not 11:30 AM  for BM's blacksburg .

Oh, I got the timezones mixed up.  So it is 6am on the West Coast.   Hrmmm.

I'm not sure it has been determined that it is going to be 9 am from here forward.  That was a day specifically chosen for Chinese and is 6am in parts of the states.  I'm not the one to make the decision, but there were not that many Chinese actively vocalizing questions, so many could be asked outside of the show and answered on the show.

well , many of Fuzzy's questions that night were actually from the Chinese community in real time....by a Instant Messager software named QQ.

That night QQ group and Mumble were like a common ground for communication in real time , maybe just didn't seem like that .

There were actually more than 30 Chinese asking question in real time and pass on to Fuzzy by QQ , and I pass the translation back to the Chinese , so they asked new question if the answer needed further discussions.

Though the QQ group , the Mumble hang out that night were channeling with more than 100 + people in China (if counting on the other QQ groups that had passed on the message , we're talking about hundreds of people ) .

Of course , we were planing on move things forward by 5 hours , 6 hours earlier was more than we expected . If it's too trouble for the other people or the devs , we can delay the section for 90 minutes to 10:30 AM EST maybe ?

By now it's safe to say if it's 10:30 AM EST , then it's 10:30 PM Beijing time. The calculation is easier than I thought.

I was mistaken about 6am, it is only 7am west coast.  Moving it forward 1.5 hours would be nice I think.  I think it would be  11:30 am for BM though thats right before lunch time.  It is very hard to get the proper time.  When we moved it from saturday morning to Friday afternoon we had a huge increase of participants.  It is great to hear there are so many Chinese tuned in through these 2nd layers like QQ.  It puts a new perspective on the time slots and makes the prioritizing decision a bit more clear. 

My understanding is the mumble limit has been increased too.
