Default Timings for Tourneys - Suggestion

Hi Guys in the back room doing a fantastic job. I've a suggestion for the 1pm big Tourney.

Could you bring it back an hour or 2 so that us in the UK can start a bit earlier. At the moment it starts at 9pm uk time which means it finishes about mid-night. (if you get to the final table)

For early starters (like me) this is a bit too late.

I appreciate its almost impossible to satisfy all people on an international site but even one a week starting earlier would be great.

Cheers

Mac

Thanks safed,

I think I was suggesting once a week for an earlier start.

There is the 4PM tourney as well which must start about mid-day for you...

Cheers

Mac

Being one of those bleary eyed players who has to stay up til midnight to play the late tourney (am always working during the early one) - any chance we could have one at 11pm UK time, so that i can play while keeping my eyes open? Even just one night a week would be great.

We have 9% of Australian traffic, 43% of UK traffic, 25% of US traffic... Sorry if I'll don't include others in the math there, I bet it's enough to show you the difficulties we have to please everyone here
I'm reading all your advices, could americans players give their point about moving the first tourney one hour before?

It would be 3 PM here and that means it would be about 6 PM on the East coast and the same as server time on the West coast. I see no problem with it being moved one hour either way.

I get them at 4pm and 7pm. Since I make my own hours, it really does not matter to me, except I seem to be busy and barely miss starting times lately. My only complaint (and not really complaining) is that they are too close to each other. If there was an extra hour or two between them, I think would be better. Maybe first one earlier by an hour, and second later by an hour. Better yet, as stated earlier, do 3 or 4 per day, evenly spaced. Or are you still launching them manually? If set to self launch, why not have more of them

Ok, seems I could move the first one one hour before starting next week
yes I need for now to setup them manually, but it will be automatic soon no worry!

I get them 10 pm and 1 am. So basicly in the middle of the night (weekdays) so an hour earlier would be awesome

I read this as your post #666 ....... Perhaps the tourney should be called "The Devils Hour"
