I support this idea. As a matter of fact I believe there should be more GM's from every timezone so that events can be organized in convenient times for everyone. Right now, the most dire situation is probably on the Asia/Pacific/Australia side, but I'm not so sure on the number of players from that geographical area.

Given the title of the thread I'd say there are quite a few European players which don't catch the too many events in their regular playing hours though.

And Heaven in a wild flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

GM events will happen when the gms have the opportunity to do them regardless of which day this falls on.

The team is not so large that they can cover all the times you will want them to and some people will always miss events regardless of when they are thrown.

Sometimes an event will be thrown at a time euros can't play, this is simply due to the fact that there are enough team member present to throw an event then. I would NOT want the gm team to forestall ANY event throwing ANYTIME they have enough people to throw it. Americans also miss out some times on events thrown earlier due to the fact they are still at work when an event begins, this is unavoidable.

I have been pushing the gm team to throw more events and offering them what aid I can to help them to do so. This is in answer to the growing note of doom and gloom about rp going on in the forums. Trying to increase the frequency of events means more events will be thrown in a full range of different times.

Also we announce all events that it makes sense to announce so this is a non-issue.

At the risk of offending Mythryndel, if there are not enough events occurring in your time zone APPLY TO THE TEAM.

When someone says "fix it yourself" it makes perfect sense and is an utterly defensible position. Most devs and ALL gms have begun as players and joined the team specifically to "fix it themselves."

No one is owed planeshift and it will not come into realization but through the efforts of its community members. 

Having said all this, yes ligh (and others) we WILL throw events on Saturday also.

Happy Gaming!
