What would be the problems encountered if the saturday event was changed to 1200 or 1300 GMT (originally 1400 GMT)? Does that make the event unattendable for anyone?

To reiterate once again...

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.)

ok then,
I ran some GMT calculations in my head and it worked out but I appear to have stuffed up somewhere

Due to the heavy problems on the server now (many crash), the events are still OK or we wait next week end ?

temporally server can't cope with too much action it seems.

I suggest we wait untill the new stuff is ready for use before doing any more events. lagging out and a crashing server mid-fight don't really add to the thrill:)
