This was recently asked in the Kingdom Age forum, too...



...event starts same old start time as usual come on Gree mix the times up then all time zones in the world can benefit at some point with better start times, or is it purposely 15.00 PST as your San Francisco office closes at 3pm so you don't have to deal with the tickets?


I think they have this start time, 3PM Pacific Time, because that is when they have the highest traffic thru their servers, meaning most are playing at that time even when an event is not beginning. (Fwiw, they have been changing some event end times to 12 Midnight, Pacific Time.)

Also, 3PM is when the most staff is in the office with plenty of time left in their workday to monitor events for tickets coming in and watch the forum for unexpected issues. Their workday starts about 10AM (+/- an hour or two) and ends pretty late, typical techie work hours. I've seen many very late night forum posts by A&F and IPB, updating us here while they're still working on issues with the engineers.

I think they would love to go home at 3PM, but that's really the middle of the workday for them.

However, they might change it. Never hurts to ask!

Yeah the ones that finish 12midnight also means us here in GMT miss the last 7/8 hours of event.. really screws us over... 7/8am Monday morning event ending is bad lol

lol, 7am is not much better... I'm not sure it is a good ending time for anybody... maybe Asia/Aust players like it...?

I don't like the 12-midnight endings (2am for me), but I can deal with it since I don't have to work or sleep.

I love when battle ends at 2/3 in the morning for me, and I'm stupid enough to actually stay up for it.

Personally, I think they should. Although the start time works out perfectly for me, our European members get screwed. There is no way a change won't bring on a whole new round of whining though.

Why dont they bring it back 1hr at a time.. why does it have to stay the same all the time.

I actually like having the events start at 11pm my time. Could we make it an hour later? ��

Hi mods have you even asked the devs if they are even considering pulling back the event times so us in europe can participate in the start of the syndi events.

So if gree changed event start times once in a while everyone would be happy and pissed off at the same time.
