I'll break it down for you:
Around 9 or 10am (CST), I may stop in before class. IF Tom and I happen to collide, I'll let my computer idle while I go to class, until I come back around 12.
Usually by then Evan or Ben, or Josh, or Phil has trickled in. (Mr. Peat, in his Russian Time sometimes pops in)
Then off to work I go where I get a solid 4 hours of chatting in, during which we see the likes of tony, dale, laura, kevin, matt, and many more.
IF tom and I aren't there in early morning, I've seen the place empty until I come to work around 1pm..
Around 430 I clock out, head home, where it's another 6-7 hours of idle/active chatting. This depends on whether or not I'm drinking, or have homework, though all can be combined.
Now, around 6 or 7pm CST a new crowd filters in... This is where we see AVB or StinkiMonki come about, peddlin their wares. Moki plays poker and ignores us, and phil usually starts gettin loopy. Regular appearance by Rod are more common, and a lot more people stop in who normally don't visit everyday. Justin starts drinking.
Drunken chat ramblings increase in likelihood nearly exponentially between 830pm and midnight.
Close to midnight or 1am I usually check out, and leave whoever is there to fend for themselves....
At 220am cst Chat kicks all the users. This is a standard and much anticipated event.
The latest I ever stayed was the one time I pulled 3rd shift duty in the Support Center... I think moki hung in chat with me until about 330 or 4... I still had 2.5 hours of work left.
This is more or less the S.O.P. for any given day in CP Chat.
