Did I miss it?
If it has happened already, it might be a good idea to remove priority on this. Also, it may be a good idea to post the time of the contest for each time zone, as I think that little bit might have been a party crasher.
For what it is worth, most of my friends tend to play MMORPG\'s both right after school (2:45 PM), in the afternoon (5:00 - 7:00) and early in the morning (1:00 AM - 4:00 AM; after that, they do tend to stay on, if only because they have fallen asleep on their keyboard). On weekends, they tend to sleep in (after playing till 4), turn off their computer to give it a rest, and turn it back on after 40 minutes. This usually brings them to 10:00 AM, and I expect they stay on as far as 2:00 PM before eating. They then get back on by about 6:00 (after seeing friends and the like; insert daily exersize here) and may stay on as late as 9:00 before going to bed (unless they have enough energy to stay up). Mind you, these are only estimates; I do hope they help the next time you do a turnament. I live in NW America (Washington, to be percise). I should also like to add that we have a half-second delay to your server, which makes such a tournament difficult for us.
