Basically this:
I have an extremely time demanding career, and I blow off steam on weeknights by playing multiplayer games. I am traditionally a Kuritan player, but I will most likely join the faction that has the most EST players simply because I hate when my precious little free time is wasted sitting around waiting for a game.

So, poll up, I'm curious.

Thank you

Pardon me if I am wrong, but if you are wanting to minimize the time you wait to get into a fight, wouldn't it be better to be on the team with the fewest numbers so you have plenty of opponents?

Want to be on at the time it will be easiest to form a lance...

Ok... I guess there is some amount of logic to that. But how does that get you more and faster fights if the other side has a hard time forming a lance?

I would think your best bet would be to find a few friends, form a Merc Corp, and take contracts fighting AGAINST whichever faction is largest in your time zone...

I'm prepared to be wrong though.

I'm hoping to join (or create) a Merc Corp with a group of folks who play actively during the times that I play most.

Hmmm... Maybe Factor's Raiders...

Took the liberty of adding my vote, even though I'm from Europe.
If pings at all allow it I'll definitely play on American servers instead of European ones.

This would be tough to do: Not alot of people in my profression really do anything with their free time... I have one good friend I play with. We need ten more. And I don't have the time to organize a group myself.


In related news: One vote for every question! This poll is not helping (yet)

So far seems to be pretty even across the board... wow... this doesn't help me at all.

Or does it?

Thanks everyone that voted so far. Hopefully we'll get some more before tomorrow.
