If you have any info as to which games will be offered and at what times, that would be helpful.

Thanks for the post! I also would be interested in a list of games and times, but I watch the gold box deals anyway so I can wait.

Or you can download and installthe wootalyzer application which will monitor it for you and set an alarm off when a new item is available. Http://www.wootalyzer.com it does a lot more than just woot.

In thinking about it more (and help from the Amazon board) , I think the MAIN deal (Deal of the Day) starts at midnight with the remaining lighting deals following the same typical schedule.

Yes, that's 2am central, however, the gold box deals usually don't begin until 6:00am PST.
There's one deal that runs the whole day, the "Deal of the Day". The rest of them, that start at 6:00pst are the "Lightning Deals"
