Levis Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Issue: It is truly hard to attend friday's euro WoE for europeans due to work and school schedule. In addition to that, we have 2 WoE's which we want to attend for, at the same day. That is overcrowded for one day. Example: Move it on thursdays, it is the only free and boring day that we have and it would be good to postpone Friday's euro WoE to increase the participants from europe & ( asia ). Term & Period: On thursdays from 10 AM to 11 AM OR from 2 PM to 3 PM ( Both at servertime ). Schedule of confirmed Events: Monday - European War of Emperium Tuesday - Guild vs. Guild Wednesday - American War of Emperium Thursday - Empty --> Replacing friday's Asian/European War of Emperium Friday - Asian/European War of Emperium & WoE 2.0 Saturday - American War of Emperium Sunday - Guild vs. Guild Conclusion: Hence, we would have more participants for european WoE. Only the time can be discussed, but as a european 2 PM to 3 PM ( Servertime ) matches better, it would be comparable to american WoE which starts from 8 PM to 9 PM ( Servertime ) and in my timezone it would start from 8 PM to 9 PM ( 2 PM Servertime ), so there is a parallel schedule. Furthermore thursdays are free days currently. Thank you for reading. Best regards, Jasser. Edited October 13, 2011 by Levis
Perishable Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) The timezone is truly hard for you due to your schedule in my opinion, not the server. If they change the timezone of European/Asian WoE now, it could affect the time of the people who could attend only at the current time, which can also lead them to the same situation as you. I don't agree on removing Friday's Euro-Asian WoE. Friday is a Saturday on the other side of the world. But changing WoE 2.0 to thursday seems reasonable. Since there are two woes on Fridays. But my other input in this is have two days for WoE 2.0 just like our normal WoE. A guild capturing WoE 2.0 castle for an entire week is long. WoE is the best event in fRO. I appreciate all the updates and changes already so I don't really mind if this doesn't get an adjustment. This is just some things that I'd like to discuss about. Edit: Sorry, if I I sounded rude.

Seraphine Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 I'm pretty sure the schedule was supposed to be arranged like that, at the moment Thursday's are open for another new event seeing as the only arranged events currently are Woe(War On Emperium) and GvG(Guild Vs Guild). I think it's best to leave it as, unless a poll is opened for people to vote but that tends to be inaccurate as people from the Western part of the world tend to vote in the poll when it's meant for Europeans/Asia etc , not to mention the majority of people don't visit the forums. @ Perishable About your comment on Woe 2.0 and giving it a second day to be held on, it would be best to make another topic for that suggestion.
Perishable Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 @ Perishable About your comment on Woe 2.0 and giving it a second day to be held on, it would be best to make another topic for that suggestion. Nah, it's okay. I'd rather not. :d Alot is being done already. Don't want to ask for much.
Levis Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Posted October 13, 2011 However, I opened this topic, because I might be not the only one. 4 PM is too early for an european WoE. Mostly people finish work at that time. That is why I suggested to move it on thursday and if possible the same schedule as on monday.
Luxiana Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 I live in Europe, and Friday's first WoE time doesn't really affect me much, I attend it with no problems (:. To think about it, changing its times to 2pm - 3pm would make more damage than good things. I mean, that's around 2 am for asians (I'm not sure if for everyone in asia) for example and not many of them will wake up just to WoE. So changing times later than, let's say 11 am - noon server time, would be bad. :3 That's just my opinion though!
Veralynn Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 Eh, I work so I'm neutral in the matter. I can only do friday/saturday WoE's >:
Aerynth Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) I'm on the Asian side of the world. I would disagree to this. Edit: Sorry if I sounded rude. Edited October 13, 2011 by Aerynth
Ryuk Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 I'm gonna have to disagree with this. For europeans the WoE time is at 4PM atm. Which is indeed conflicting with work and school for a lot of people. However friday is oftenly a shorter workday/schoolday than thursday. Therefore I think it's not smart to move the WoE to thursdays. The current WoE time could be changed to a few hours later, however this would effect the asian community too much so I dont think this is a good option either. Ps. I'll be honest too. I can make it on friday most of the time. But thursdays would be impossible for me. 1
Levis Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Posted October 13, 2011 Well american WoE is at 2 AM for me too...and does anyone cared for 4 years or did I complain yet? No. And I could do friday's WoE just having 2 WoE's on one day is too stuffed and also 4 PM is early, I can do it, but I know of people who cant and that is definitely more than those who can yet. You disagree because you can participate! That's not objective. In my opinion I try to share the days it's too stressing and time consuming. I am investing almost a whole friday. From 5 PM to 1 Am I can go out, which is really a few hours.

From 5 PM to 1 Am I can go out, which is really a few hours. Obviously above the statement that I could make it on fridays I've given you a perfectly legal explanation why I think it would not be wise to change it to thursdays. This explanation was completely objective. Besides with the amount of times I can WoE I could care less if it changed o.o I'm just giving you a legit point of view from most asians and europeans. Changing the EuroWoE to thursdays would decrease the amount of players big time. Asians would no longer be able to join it and most likely even less europeans would show up as well. Again, friday (last day of the work week for most) is oftenly a shorter work day than thursday 1
Luxiana Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Just because you don't care, it doesn't mean EVERYONE don't care. Sorry to be direct here, but this WoE IS called Euro & Asian WoE, so if we move times even later, the "Asian" would be just there for sounding "nicer", no meaning for it at all. I'd rather suggest changing times of WoE 2.0 to thursdays, since it's basically another american WoE, but moving Euro WoE on thursdays is just... unreasonable in my opinion lol. Reasons were stated in Ryuk's posts already :3 Edited October 14, 2011 by Quenyi

Levis Posted October 16, 2011 Author Report Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) I don't care? I doubt I said that. I said and I only can repeat myself, american WoE is at 2 AM for europeans. So, for Asians it's mostly at 8 AM which is more comfortable than 2 AM. Hence, it would be fair if europeans have a WoE which starts at 2 AM and asians too. That is my point of view. And also I said I rather like to move the day not the time that was just an IF Condition. Well, my main reason is: 2 WoE's on friday are too much and time consuming considering friday as the start of the weekend and europeans and also asians can hardly go out between both WoE and do something out of RO. That's what I am intending. Edited October 16, 2011 by Levis
Leaz Posted October 16, 2011 Report Posted October 16, 2011 Personally, I find the current WoE times/days to be fine. I think I read somewhere that they were going to start a new weekly event on Thursday, so there is going to be at least one day that will have 2 events of something.
Levis Posted October 16, 2011 Author Report Posted October 16, 2011 That is correct, but WoE lasts for an hour, other events hardly reach that duration.
