Omnipotens Zitro Doomheim 425	Posted - 2012.10.19 18:03:00 - [1] - Quote Looking at the schedule start times for the tourney. A Big problem appears when seeing the there will be games played on Friday a little after noon. Friday is a work/school day for most players in the US and most players usually don't get on till the evening. Imperfects being mainly a US corp and main other US based corps will not have all there players on giving US corps a big disadvantage to EU corps on Friday. IMO I think no Corp battles should be played on Friday. Instead it should be equally distributed on Saturday and Sunday so US corp can have there players on without having to call off work or skipping school.
J'Jor Da'Wg KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 648	Posted - 2012.10.19 18:04:00 - [2] - Quote Agreed, Friday at noon is a bad time for US players.

Paran Tadec Imperfects Negative-Feedback 902	Posted - 2012.10.19 18:14:00 - [6] - Quote We'll , you'd have me at the time, except corps are bugged so me and my guys can't join you yet :(
Quickgloves SVER True Blood Unclaimed. 327	Posted - 2012.10.19 18:15:00 - [7] - Quote well if your roster has no depth dont apply for the tourny.. not bieng ignnorant just saying
Cyn Bruin Imperfects Negative-Feedback 651	Posted - 2012.10.19 18:16:00 - [8] - Quote No corporations in the tourney should be at a disadvantage due to times of matches, defeats the purpose. Even if this was switched around and the EU corps were at a disadvantage I'd hate it, everyone wants to compete and win against the best possible opponents and lineups. A good solution is do the 3 matches on the weekends, I don't think time would make a difference then. Hell I'd wake up/stay up til 4am just to play in this if that was the only possible time on weekends. But when it interferes with real money earning (which btw CCP is trying to get out of me, hint hint), there is no real choice. Tournament is a great idea if it is balance time/date wise and server stability wise. If not, why have it.

Unfortunately corps are bugged and we can't leave corp, and I can't drop roles or kick anyone. Support basically told me there isnt anything they can do.

We have depth as you'll find out, this doesn't just affect us, but all US based corporations.

Clove PsyKoz Deadly Blue Dots RISE of LEGION 7	Posted - 2012.10.19 21:43:00 - [13] - Quote Let me get this straight...all you guys crying about the play times for a little beta tourny. What are you gonna do when your territory is attacked? You think it's always gonna be at a convenient time for you? If you recruit strictly US, then thats your own fault and your disadvantage.

This is a tournament sponsored by CCP, not an in-game raid. The same logic doesn't apply. If CCP is going to sponsor a tourney that has large amounts of American players, they should try to balance the Euro times with the North American times. Starting in the middle of a work day isn't balancing. I'm sure all the Euros would be up in arms if the tournament started at 2 am local time. It's about being reasonable.
