We decided to go with 4pm Florida time for both early and regular
registration. In years past we thought noon worked best because registration
took place in December (before any Australian meets started) and there were so
few Australians coming to Florida anyway. In any event, 4PM (8 AM on the 8th in
Forbes) makes it a bit more doable for everyone, particularly considering there
are so many Europeans and Americans in Australia at the moment.


Either way, the top 50 CIVL and top 30 US have a full week, so the time isn't so
crucial for them. It's the regular registration that will be a bit more of a
frenzy
