One Day of the Month
« on: June 07, 2013, 06:40:15 AM »
One day of the month would have only one arena available for everyone.  Say first Wednesday of June would be Early arena then first Wednesday of July Mid war and so forth.

It would be a hoot to see several hundred people in the early war planes as a thought.

Might give HTC a good maintenance day for the other servers as well.

and every day that the late war arena isn't available, the general discussion forum will be flooded with whine...it's easier than trying to have fun with something different.

Nah.  If gamers don't have what they want when they want it, the majority don't tend to try something else, they tend to log out.

I have reasons for not wanting to fly in EW or MW that have nothing to do with population or aircraft availability.

What a marvelous idea.

It could be on a Tuesday.

We could call it...

TITANIC TUESDAY!!!

Bad idea.  It's best to stop trying to force people to fly planes they don't want to.

Though your business is none of mine, that's still quite a curious statement.

Actually I just don't like the universal chat.  I have never tuned to 200 in LW and I don't like having the same thing forced upon me.  Most chaps are cordial enough but I don't like squelching the others.  Honestly I probably shouldn't have posted in this thread for such a minor complaint.

No, I'm saying global chat is enabled by default in EW and MW, and I don't like poor sports on the other teams razzing me.  Of course, people in LW can send a PM if they just want to cause grief, but it is very rare in my experience.  Like I said it is a minor complaint.
