Tournament Runners Hate the West Coast?

We recently had a post where League brought to light all the tournaments hosted by various community sites; which was pretty awesome! I had no idea it was possible to get RP just for playing! I dove right in, looking for tournaments I could play. Unfortunately, almost all the organizations that host these tournaments start them around the same time (7-8pm EST / 4-5pm Pacific). Being in the pacific time zone and having a job, I find it rather difficult to be at my cpu and ready to go by 5 O'clock. Professionals on the east coast, however, can enjoy a leisurely commute home, eat dinner, relax a bit (or play a warm up game or 2). I seem to note a severe lack of love! Can someone step up and run some tournaments for someone besides the Jersey Shore, or just point to where they are hiding?

That's not west coast hate, it's really west coast support. For East Coast players they constantly request tournaments start between 4 ad 6pm, but (at least at www.notsostock.ca) we've kept our start time at 7pm EST (4pm PST) to allow west coast players a better chance of entering while not pushing tournament end times past 12am/1am for east coast players.

P.S.

If you can find at least 16 west coast teams interested, I'd set up a tournament for you.
