What's the best time to post Projects? :o
I'm not sure if this should be in Miscellaneous or not, but it seemed half-fitting...
Anyway, does anyone know for sure or have a best guess when the best time (the global clock) or day is to post projects? Because like one of my easy-made projects I made got 7 views in like a minute (though that's all really), while this other 3D(ish) project I had been working on for 2 weeks that I uploaded has 1 comment, and like no views.
Or can you recommend a program or web site that can help do this for me? Like most hits at certain times?
I wish they had that in Scratch Stats

I'd say "upload when there are a lot of people on the forums" - that way, if you post an advertisement in Show and Tell, more people will see it while it's at the top of the page

Well, there is no best time to post a project, just a best time to advertise it
Back. For now. Maybe.

What would be a lot of people exactly, lol? There are 20 people on at this writing.

Lol I guess I'm not much of a business person. Does not having leader qualities lead to this? XD

20's quite a lot There have been times when more people were on (35+, I think), but then again, there are times when I'm the only member online ( 
). So yeah, posting now might work

I guess it depends how long the usernames are - if they're 10 to 15 characters long, and there are 20 users online, they'll take up more lines than if everyone had 3 characters. Perhaps a lot of people online then had long-ish usernames?
