I don't see why it would be such a bad idea to have 2 alternate times in a day for events. But for that you'd probably want 2 different leaders for the events. That way people would have a choice of times to pick from to what suits their rl schedule best.
But if you don't have 2 leaders or enough participation, then I'd say nay to having 2 time slots in the day. People can join if they can or not if they cannot.
We all have lives outside RS, at least I certainly hope you do! And I certainly would not expect you, Makoto, to have to ruin your day just to bend to the will of others.
People, if you can work your schedules to make it to the event, do so. If you can't, well, maybe next time. Don't complain to our kind event leader! The solution may be one you don't like at all: NO MORE EVENTS! I'M TIRED OF COMPLAINTS!
And even if my life conflicts and I cant make any events, I'd rather not see that happen.

Okay, here's what Makoto's gonna do!
He's got himself a bright idea when it comes to this.
I shall start posting these events TWO WEEKS IN ADVANCE, giving everyone apt time to clear their schedules/get ready for some phun .
I won't start another demographic, maybe again later, but not until December at the earliest.
Because it now takes the users two weeks to get ready, the events that are planned in-between have to be pushed back/cancelled. People, read the announcements board. It ain't hard.
Alright, that was plenty of constructive feedback. Thanks.

In my case, I'm not allowed to use the computer after 10 pm. That means that if you plan events that are ok in your timezone, but like 11 pm here, I won't be able to attend. That's a pretty clear reason.
I think we should pick two times. One suitable for US people (and those who live in about the same timezones) and one for the Europian people.
Also bear in mind that parties and other events will probably take an hour or two.
Suitable times for me would be:
On weekdays:
Between 3 pm and 5 pm GMT. Between 6 pm and 8 pm GMT.
On weekends:
Between 11 am and 5 pm GMT. Between 6 pm and 8 pm GMT.
I do not expect every party to be held at suitable times for me, but do at least a few.

Well, as I live in the GMT +2 timezone, the 3 - 5pm GMT on weekdays and 11am - 5pm GMT on weekends suits me well
