The Saturday event was started to give those players who live in the ANZLAG areas an opportunity to play and/or participate. The original event - Sunday - ended up for them, due to time zone differences - being around 5 am on Monday morning. Saturday at 1400 GMT meant that these people could still participate since that was around midnight or so for them, while at the same time allowing people in the U.S. to ALSO participate.
It has always been a secondary event to the Sunday main event, as even with the best of things, 1400 GMT is 0900 USEST. Bumping it back up to 1200 GMT puts it at 0700 US EST - and 0400 US PST. I don't think many people are going to get up at 4 a.m. for a battle, even on a weekend. (Some people might STILL be up from the night before, but that's another story and/or issue, and their sobriety is probably in question.)
