Saw this today and it seems curious that the highest user count was in the middle of the night on a Saturday. Any ideas why or is there usually a large audience burning the oil at 3AM Saturdays? Real users or bots?
"In total there are 903 users online :: 82 registered, 14 hidden and 807 guests (based on users active over the past 5 minutes)
Most users ever online was 3350 on Sat Sep 08, 2018 3:07 am"

That would be Saturday mornings ~ 9am in England. Maybe they're reading the forum with their morning tea and biscuit?

Yes, very curious. But what time zone is being reported, your own or GMT? If GMT that’s 9pm Friday night on the east coast.

The middle of the night on Saturday for Americans is waking hours in Europe and Asia. There are a lot of users and lurkers in these regions (a lot more lurkers than users I think). I live in Europe and am temporarily in Asia so I was one of the users. Plus some Americans who can't sleep.

You all are so smart! I never thought of the time zone/international audience. Very nice. My curiosity is cured.

Those with a sharp eye may have noticed an increase in contributions from our European wiki editors.
