The busiest day of the week on myLot

I often try to notice a pattern every week , as to how much activity there is on myLot for everyday of the week. Up till now I haven't noticed any. Sometimes the week days seem have more traffic than the weekends and some times its seems to be the opposite. Forget about that sometimes it is like there's drastic difference in the number of discussions posted in like half an hour, among the weekdays themselves. today back-to-back discussions were posted for while but on the other hand yesterday when I opened the new discussions section and there were like three new discussions for what seemed like an hour. Have you every noticed more activity on some days compared to others? Could you accurately rate one particular day of the week busiest of them all? Has anyone ever tried to notice a pattern? I know that trying to figure out the payment algorithm is not allowed but this isn't about that, I found no rules that this one seemed to be violated by this one. If it does please start your responses by adding that.

It is unpredictable, as you are dealing with real people. It is all random, and therefor no pattern can be detected.

im sure there is a pattern because most things in life do not happen completely randomly

Yeah the the busiest day has to be predictable because people are predictable at least most of them are . This will help us sort out the days we might want to use myLot more than some others as per our preferences . If not one particular day group of days could show more active than the rest.

yes there still could be a particular pattern that most of the people follow , I actually have been trying to observe a pattern for a long time now and I haven't noticed a pattern so trust me you gotta look for it , there's still a possibility , although I'm getting tempted to rule it out and change my opinion . That's because Most of the responses are pointing in another direction , there was one poster who said something about weekends being inactive by comparison . Another one in way supported , probably , or at least didn't talk against it. I don't lets see what other people might think , I'm gonna wait a while for some more responses to pour in.

I think that there is no pattern. But after being off for several days I see less activity than usual amongst people that I know here. Maybe Europeans watch Euro 2012 but where are ten Americans

I think all football fans are hooked to Euro 2012, I'm not into sports but my neighbor follows football and I don't think that he's missed a match yet( I'm in India BTW). As for it being unpredictable I've found that to be somewhat true till now but if tomorrow is low on activity then that settles the issue of Sundays being typically slower than other days . I think that's because a lot of people consider posting stuff on myLot to be more of a work than recreational way to kill time and hence take the Sundays off.
