Well, I WOULD have liked to have taken part in the Tour of Duty events, but of course they are run on Thursday nights, 10pm Eastern (midday Friday for me).

Oh wait, maybe I can take part in the scenarios! Hmmm, they are on Sundays, right? Lets say they start at 2pm US Eastern. For those of us living in Australia or Asia that means midnight Sunday nights at the earliest

Why in heavens name wouldn't you run scenarios on Saturdays? At least then ALL AH players might have a chance to take part.

Looks like it's back to the MA for me

Reminds me of an old Kiwi saying:
"you can please some of the people all of the time... but you can never please those whinin aussies"

Jekyll, the reason we don't run scenarios on Saturdays, especially on Saturday during the day, is that people just don't show up.

I don't know if its just the summer season in the US, and people are spending alot of their time outside, or what, but attendance to Saturday events so far has been disappointing to say the least.

Now we do try to run some events for people in your timezone.

We run the "Check Six" event every week on Saturdays at 9:00PM Eastern, which translates to around 12:00 noon on Sunday in Australia (depending on time zone).

Our Pac-Rim team also runs a "Snapshot" event periodically in your timezone as well. I am trying to get these scheduled on the Calendar, and more frequently.

If the attendance at these events picks up, we will start to schedule more events in these time frames to meet the demand.
