Would you like to be able to specify time bands in which your games were played?

I think you should make it possible to specify your game times. I have it when I have games at 7:00 servers time, which is the middle of the night here. When games are at 17:00-24:00 I actually have time to wake up and check. It's mainly a pain because I play in a 0% effort league that plays late now, and my league games are really early. So, last week I ended up losing 10-0 bc I couldn't get to my computer in the 8 hour window between games. So yeah, when you sign up - have a way to specify your preference. And make then once you have established some seniority your preference is weighted. Woot woot! Sam |

So those who started the game earlier, or the first person to sign up, always get their preferred game time? The only fair way is the current random system. I can't imagine adding another variable that would only cause more threads of 'it isn't fair that you started yesterday and I started today and you always get to choose' etc etc etc -1 |

Americans would play around 5pm in their time zone. Europeans the same. Etc. The only real detractor in my mind is that we wouldn't get as much opportunity to make friends with each other from other cultures, which I love. we might not even need a seniority variable. The only issue would be games processing on servers too much during a certain time and making performance poor. I dont think it's unfair the way it is, it's just a pain in the butt when I miss a tactic change cause I'm busy at work or something. I want to specify my preference. That is better for all in my league, if a top contender doesn't beat me bc I messed up my tactics. in all honesty, a better solution would be an auto-change feature that just let me schedule my tactics changes. I'm sure that isn't the first time that has been requested, but here is an example: -Monday, at 0:00 turn on all this: tactic 1,2,3 ect -Friday, at 23.59 - effort 0% and no tactics. Etc. that would really solve it better. Anyway, just throwing it out there. |

That's a pretty harsh schedule, but you get good and bad ones. Everyone has PL games at different times, league games and cup games as well. Really the only fair way is to have all games play at the same time everyday so you always have at least 24 hours to fix things up, but i dont think that's possible due to server load in the current setup. | 02/11/2014 04:28 |

I'll switch my request to that! Even a paid feature, perhaps. If that was a part of the pack manager that would be really valuable. Alright, that's all from me! No need to beat a dead horse Thanks all for the comments back. I'll chat with you all again, I'm sure. Bizzy Edited by Sambizzy 02-11-2014 22:46 |
