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'm currently in the same timezone. I'm on vacation right now and not 100% in control of my schedule, but I'm pretty sure I'll be available on Thursday afternoon and most of Saturday. I'm flying home Sunday afternoon/evening and can guarantee that I'll be free on Monday/Tuesday if we need an extension. I should also be free after 8:00-9:00 PM on any night except Sunday.
