which nights?
Sunday is my most open day. After that Friday is good at the moment (if I don't adopt my plan of heading to San Diego on Fridays...not sure I'm going to do that yet or not, however it if I did it wouldn't be for a while). After that (in order) Saturday, Tuesday, maybe Wednesday...but I'd be inconsistent on any of these days.
During the day Saturday and/or Sunday would be open too.
These days dancing takes priority for me, but not every night has good dancing (within reasonable driving distance).

Should I put you down as available for all of those days, Sunday/Friday, or just Sunday?

You are forgetting that we have enough new main 80s that need gear in Naxx before they can go to Ulduar. We do not have 20 characters that can do Ulduar right now, as much as you want to.
The way I see it, we need to help those new main 80s "get ready for/do Ulduar" by first going to Naxx with them. Taking last night as an example, we just happened to have 3 new mains, 5 alts in Naxx, and a couple of overgeared mains to carry us through, and it worked.
Also, based on what you suggested in saying that this is for a 2nd Ulduar raid, I have removed myself from Monday's vote. And, I want to clarify that I will only be raiding with Camyu in Ulduar at the moment as main spec. Not with Taiga. So with that said, I'm available to raid Ulduar only on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. So change that 1st post for me, Ian.

I am frequently busy on Sunday and Monday until about 9. Otherwise, I'm flexible if given advanced warning.
Cazi: Mage (Arcane) [Main, Naxx-25 + Ulduar gear]
Hanth: Priest (Disc. healer / shadow) [Primary alt, good heroic level gear]
Rila: Paladin (Protection / Retribution) [Alt, okay heroic level prot. gear, pre-heroic retrib gear]
Trini: Hunter (Beastmaster) [Alt, pre-heroic gear]
Oh, and for alt nights, I actually prefer playing "on level". It's more fun for me if it isn't too easy.

No, I mean that the plan (my plan) is for the second raid to eventually get up to speed and be on the same tier of content as the first raid. This means that we'll want to crush naxx 10 for at least a couple weeks (and that people with more than a couple blues will want to grind heroics for emblems/potential epics). But I want this raid to be in Naxx for as short a period as possible, so that we're not screwing over the actual mains that aren't in the Tues/Thurs raid. Obviously, if people aren't appropriately geared for ulduar, we can't throw them in completely unprepared.
Also, if we actually have 20 people who want to raid, and the scheduling can actually work to get 2 full completely unique (no alts) raids going, I'm all for that.

Put me down for Sunday and Friday. My account is deactivated at the moment. If this starts up I'll need a little warning to get my crap together again.

Characters:
Tsukiki Druid Balance/None ATM, but eventually Resto
No other alts at 80.

This is for raiding in general, but I definitely want to be in Naxx10 to gear up a lot before even stepping foot into Ulduar.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
8pm Pacific works for me.

I raid at about 7pm EST on my other server on Tue-Wed-Thu, but the later time works as I can go eat dinner and exercise and be here for the raid.

Just to be more specific for me: I can either bring Logos or Kant on any of the days I signed up for (theoretically). Logos is geared well enough. Kant is mostly Naxx epics, Heroic epics and some heroic blues. Current main spec is Holy. Alt spec is Ret - mostly Heroic blues and BS blues.

Yeah, I'm actually unable to see what nights you voted for, I guess I should have just omitted the poll altogether. I'll update the first post to indicate that I really need everyone to post characters and raid nights.
