Obviously any time that is selected will have some problems with some people. A good organization will do the best that it can to minimize the scheduling conflicts. It's very likely that the COGs are doing that now.
However, if you've ever been out to eat, to a gas station, or to any store or business on any hour of the weekend -- I'm sure you'll understand that the middle working class doesn't get to sit home on Saturday/Sunday like we have a day off from school. Furthermore, a large percentage of 'gamers' do NOT have salaried Monday-Friday 9-5 jobs.
This is something that should be taken into consideration as the population of this game grows.

So very much the truth. I get incredibly frustrated whenever I see someone being flippant about others' issues just because they personally aren't affected. Cogs are at 3 in the morning for you and you get on just fine? Good for you, not everyone has the luxury of staying up that late or getting up that early, not everyone has that day off. If it can't be helped then it IS just a matter of dealing with it, but we should be making every effort to avoid that if at all possible. It sucks being on the receiving end of those "deal with it" remarks, so don't fling them around just to brag about your own dedication.
That being said, 4-ish on a Saturday will likely be the one time that's convenient for the most people playing, I think it's a great "standard" time that should be adjusted as requested and complemented with rescheduled games if at all possible for those who cannot make the standard times.

Make additional events! don't let cogs be the only thing going on.
