Nagoya Games Days - When are you free?

Easy question, which day is the most convenient/easiest/most fun/least hassle for you to come to Nagoya for a games event, such as the monthly Joshin event?
You can choose only one answer. Please add a short comment as to why and also other viable alternatives.
Cheers

I voted Sunday because I know (suspect?) that is when most folks are free and my wife doesn't mind taking care of the kids. Mind you, except for Thursdays, I can get just about any other day 'off' if there's something on and I have plenty of notice.

I have 1 day a week for gaming (one of the concessions I made to my wife in exchange for a games room).
On saturday we usually go out and do stuff together, but on sundays she likes to stay home and watch TV. So sundays are better for me. I can do saturdays as well, but sunday is definitely my first choice.

Sunday's my first choice as well, although I could do Saturday in a pinch.

I can probably make myself available on Saturday's or Sundays with notice. I've been going to Japanese cons once or twice a month though so I don't know if I can do both in one weekend. Weekday nights might work with notice.

my mon-fri is absolutely unshiftable, as are alternate saturdays (1/3/5 week each month) However, even on days I should have off (2/4 saturdays in the month, sundays, and nat hols) I often have to go in to work for things like setsumeikai, hogoshakai, speech contests, school taiken, kenshu, and stuff of that nature.
That said, Sundays are generally the safest bet for me. (i.e. usually theyre ok, as opposed to every other day, which is usually not ok.)

Sundays are never a problem.
Saturdays are doable from about 2 onwards as I teach about 4 lessons on sunday mornings.

Mike the Inquisitorpike looking for someone that is not me...
I voted saturdays and that makes it 2 votes. Again I voted Saturdays as I am no longer available for games out side of my home on Sunday. nothing against my man mike but I guess games between you and I will be difficult to organize..
