Hello all! We're looking to see what the community would be interested in seeing for WoE scheduling. We're going to have a facebook poll up (yes, I know, boo hiss facebook, but it's a way of gauging opinions from the large number of players who do not get on the forums) to get some votes on times. We'll look at that and the discussion here to inform our decision on when to set Classic's WoE.

Having it during a Renewal server WoE would definitely be inconvenient for players who like to WoE on multiple servers, but would earlier (or later) WoE times stretch things too thin? Curious to see what you all think.

3-5 works
That's 6-8 EST which leaves enough time to go out before and after WoE. Remember it's on a saturday.

3-5 is during Valk WoE.

My random suggestions for days / times:

WoE 1.0 = Sundays 3-5 PM PST
WoE 2.0 = Thursday 6-8 PM PST (or earlier, if we get rid of the ridiculous double maintenances. :D)

That can end up being pretty late on sunday for people who need to work on monday morning. Saturday is really the best day.

Just because a small minority wants to woe on 20 servers at once doesn't mean we should put the WOE at some odd time.

I think 3-5pm pst works fine as thats what alot of people are used to.

1-3 is definitely better .. give us time to go out and enjoy life as well

I think that on the woe release date-have the GM own all the castles and kill the treasure box before allowing the "top guilds" to rush and monopolize all of the forts. I also think it would be more fair to limit the realms to 2 per week and have GM take over the previous castles on the next rotation (allowing 2 weeks of investment). It won't be fun if there are too many forts and not enough guilds.

Lol. If they schedule WoE to overlap with any renewal server WoE, the OBVIOUS choice is to make sure that it does NOT overlap with valk, since that has by far the most number of players besides classic. Aside from that, I don't really care.

1-3 works for both USA and EU. Go with that I'd say. 3-5 is alright on Saturday for Europe too.

yeah? having to wake up at 3 am sucks even more or even 2 am for that matter.

Best time would be at after the renewal woe's on Saturday , or during Ymir's woe time

Why don't you do both a forum and facebook poll? I hate facebook polls and I know a lot of people who feel the same way.
