I want him to tell us why it matters
I think it's just another way to play the game. Personally I like to track my numbers. Not so much against other players, but to me, month after month. Adding days or weeks to one tour not only messes up the tour, but also shortens up the he next month throwing off my graphs.
I like to track my kill to deaths, and my hit percentage. Is it the end of the world when it gets delayed, no but it does mess up a part of the game up for me.
