Here is my observation from last year, as posted on 3830:
"A great decision was getting up at 3am to score a long run of JAs on 40, by far my best run for the entire contest."
So this year, I'm taking my first break between 11pm or midnight and 3am. But that's just me...Pretty much like Sweepstakes. 2-8am local time will be the slowest rate. You might want to save an hour off-time though for contingency on Sunday.
