Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I am GMT-4 (EST) as well. I would prefer if we played Friday. What does your availability look like Friday the 9th? If you aren't available at all Friday, I could play later in the afternoon Wednesday.
Does 2:00 on Wednesday work? I already have tour games scheduled for noon and 4PM so that's probably the time that works best for me (am flexible though)
