Board Game Arena

I'm trying to play Arena but there's never anyone playing -- I'll often wait 15 minutes or more before giving up. Is there a time of day when more people are around? Should I be posting in the general messages chat when I want to play? Be more patient? How are y'all playing games?

Side note: When I'm a guru I often will vote for 2 player format not because it's better, but because it shortens the wait time to get a game together. I'd be much more in favor of 3 player arena if I didn't have to wait so long to play.

I usually turn on 'turn-based'. It's not ideal, but at least then you get to play eventually.
