There is no solution to this problem, as the circadian cycle must always be kept at a constant, and the fact that BMGF herself have her own circadian rhythm. From morning to noon, the number of members active is usually half of that when nighttime comes. Whereas noontime to afternoon time, the members will dwindle to a third of the usual population. Most often, members can be found wandering at nighttime, which is the time when the forums are bustling and lively, contrary to the lifeless and desolate past midnight. Then after nighttime, where insomniacs dwell the shadowy thronged streets, the population regressed to 1/4 of the population and the cycle starts again at morning.

From 6AM - 12PM: 1/2 population
From 12PM - 6PM: 1/3 population
From 6PM - 12AM: Full population online
From 12AM - 6AM: < 1/4 population

So if you're living on the other side of the world, just reverse this rhythm:

From 6AM to 12PM: Full population
From 12PM to 6PM: 1/4 population
From 6PM to 12AM: 1/3 population
From 12AM to 6AM: 1/2 population

Note: The whole thing is not proven yet. Please point out any anomalies, thank you. The whole thing discounts externalties, so weekends and holidays and forum maintenance are not counted in.
Found it pretty interesting. XD
