Living on the East Coast, I just thought of the most important thing: I hope they start each game bright and early!

I wonder what my wife would say if I announced I was taking a day's vacation to stay up and watch a deciding game...

I should note that there is a Sensei's page on the subject of their rivalry: http://senseis.xmp.net/?LeeSedolGuLiRivalry. It shows is that they've always been quite evenly matched in head to head play.

That is very cool. I will watch until I pass out. (Europe time zones not ideal for this one, but who cares!)

I should have known better than to get my hopes up. Games always start at 7 or 8 for me, so I was excited about the the change.

game time correction on KGS:
Myungwan Kim 9p, via email wrote:The game starts at 9:30am in Bejing time which will be 5:30pm in Pacific Standard Time and 8:30pm in Eastern Standard Time.
I will be broadcasting the game progress at live when they start the game. I am going to make audio commentary 1 hour and 30 mins after the game started which will be 7pm PST and 10pm EST.
