The downtime suits me in England lols that the americans get shafted for once, they get everything first, and all the attention. Yet they complain when when something doesn't go there way.

Besides its hardly a huge ask for you to wait a few hours and miss 1 night of play time to get all the great content coming in the patch.

I was chatting with a work mate that plays TOR as well and we were wondering what is the percentage of trolls/haters/add kids that are actually american. We agreed to at least 50% (and a good 40% being british of course....)

So that means $15/30 = .49

.49 / 24 = .02

So you're losing a whole 8 cents a month.

If the team decides to suddenly change it's starting times to 3 in the morning, when you can't show up, you'd be a little peeved, wouldn't you? In fact, if suddenly, you had no use for those tickets because of the time change, you'd likely demand a refund from the front office, would you not?

You don't watch many sports do you? Try the English Premier League, games get reshuffled more than a poker deck. Changed for cup games, European games, television coverage, bank holidays , international games, weather, on-field incidents etc etc etc,

or maybe tennis or cricket, where games are called off and rescheduled due to rain.

There are plenty of examples.

If I tell you about something that's happening tomorrow, that's 1 day of notice.
But I'm in europe and it wasn't happening tomorrow.

50%? i would consider it being around that, since most players of TOR are american (law of averages wins) but 40% british? I doubt that very much, we would be around 15-20% as we have Germans, Spanish, French and Italian players too, not to mention australian and asian which dilutes the amount a lot. Now if Britain was actually just a little smaller than the US then yes I would say 40%.

And the 40% of the British are just doing their duty complaining about everything (stereotyping FTW!)

At least the game will be up when I get out of bed (hopefully)...

Gotta hate screwed sleeping patterns due to being a full time carer (for the grand sum of £58/week)
1) I reject your reality.... and substitute my own
2) Not to be used when upset... will void warranty
3) Stoke me a clipper i will be back for dinner
4) I have seen more intellegence from an NPC AI in TR beta, than from most MMO players.

I do care about the 10 p.m. PST downtime though. That's effing annoying and cuts directly into my prime gameplay time. It's bad enough that every maintenance run hits us at Midnight while we are playing as well. 10 p.m. is garbage.

I was sick last week and logged in to play some SWTOR in the early morn (9 a.m. PST). There were 14 people in Fleet at the time. Why can't they just push the maintenance into the early morn. Definitely were less peeps playing early morning than the 40 peep average in Fleet at Midnight.
Because that isn't the only server?
