I have no idea how many US players there are here as most of them first login, when I go to bed. So with Garth Logic, we are a lot more EU players than US players.
Before Mugen was made, it was a little more balanced. The JP players was on, when I got home from work and started to drop off for bed as more EU players got on. Then when the US players sharted to get home from work, the EU players started to drop off for bed with the Pacific ones dropping off just before the JP players started to get on again. There are others on the other side of the earth, I only see in the weekends.
EM's do have a life too and should not turn upside down their sleep, work and play times. For all the years I have played on Siege, most EM events had been past my bedtime and I gave up on most of them. Now for first time, we seem to have a EU based EM or I believe he is and I have to admit, I'm very happy. Maybe it's fair, that for a while is the US players time to take a day from work if they really want to go to an EM event.
When no EU players post in this thread, it could be the attitude, that we EU players are second rangs Siege players and it is ok, if we can't be there to an EM event as long the time fit US Siege players as they seem to be more worth than us from EU.
Siege is not an US shard, even when placed on the east coast, it is a EU and US shard as Mugen is not a choice for us as our connection to there is very bad and we do not speak Japaneses.
Europa and Drachenfells too, are not a choice as it is Trammel shards and we can't stand playing there.
If Garth feel, we the EU players can just play on a EU server, if we want to attent EM events, I will say, that may could for Garth too, if EM events mean more than the ruleset of the shard, there are lots of US servers with US based EM's, so go do your event there. However, I believe the ruleset do matter to most of us so lets try to make it work for us all without forcing our great EM to make events, when he need to sleep to be ready for work next day or skip work to be able to do it.
Also we can't just let a Trammel US shard EM make EM events for us in US time as they do not understand the community we have here.
Also, no offense to any of you that don't have the glorious luxury of living in the US. I hold no grudges against any of you, I just know deep down inside, that there are more of us from the US as a group than there are of you all..again, mass icq'n your monstrous member group doesn't count.
You do not know and we do not have to prove anything to you. How do you thinks Bennu's times for EM events did work for EU players? Week days in the middle of the night. I can tell, it did not work at all.
It will never work for all, even when we all pay the same a month and have same right to be able to attent EM events.
I have no idea who our new EM is and I don't believe any others know, even when some think they do know, I believe they are wrong.
What I do know is:
- We do have an EM now
- We do have an very active EM
- We do have an EM who care for the shard
- We do have an EM, who understand our ruleset
- We do have an EM, who do great stuff like the Easter Bunnies and Soulless Minions
- We have an EM, who made attack on our player towns using old overlands spawn
- We have an EM, who do way more for the shard than an EM ever had done before on Siege
But sure, Garth can't attent all his events, so lets complain and get an US based EM, as long he can place the EM events so Garth can attent them as US players are VIP players and matter more than everything else.
Yes I know, I should just delete this and not hit Post Reply.
Sorry, but this really annoy me.
