Yeah, they are pleading... if casually the ones that can start raiding at 9AM will be the NA users.
Raid opening at the same time would mean that for some regions this will be in the late evening/early night and noone will raid during the night.
That’s why opening the raid simultaneously makes no sense anyways.
I already addressed why a time-based system wouldn't work in my opinion.
I saw no other ideas other than "Blizz should just do X" which is a non-argument cuz none of us represent Blizz and the WF race is a community event at its core.
And even then, I agreed multiple times that Blizz should make a global reset.
Unlike you I actually engage with this discussion and you're only purpose here is to troll.
You say you are not biased yet your post history (and posts in this thread) clearly show that you call EU players "salty" and make dozens of excuses why this and that.
Nobody cares.
Make a thread and discuss your superiority complex there. Thank you.
Pretty much, but there's also an official Blizzard Mythic raid leaderboard since some time now. That didn't exist in the past, and it's pretty much an official statement of who Blizzard considers to be first. And the measurement seems the same.
But even if it's a pure community-made event, that doesn't mean that the evaluation should have an intrinsic flaw.
It costs no money to create characters outside of buying the game which can just be done with gold, expecting the region who is currently on a normal schedule to fuck up their sleep schedules is absurd not to mention they would lose a day because of when reset is. Or do you also want them to not play on reset day so they only get 6 days each of the first two weeks boy that sure seems fair /s

Wasn't he the primary person consistently dying in phase 2?
So I just want to be sure. Are people really suggesting they make a change that would effect millions of players to make ~50 players happy?
MMO-Champ the place where calling out trolls get you into more trouble than trolling.
I don't think expecting world first guilds to adhere to a gentleman's agreement is even remotely likely to work.
Keep in mind these guilds have done things like hide their talent builds, used exploits and spread misinformation about boss mechanics to gain an advantage.
That's without even getting into all of Method's dirty laundry.
Really, this is just another example of Blizzard ignoring feedback unless: it's incredibly easy to implement and/or agrees with what they were planning on doing anyway.
I should think Blizzard likes NA beta testing patches in production as they don't have to worry about resolving issues on so many servers.

Gaming and WoW stuff
Nothing there hasn't been for years outside the later reset/start.

It's about 50k if that who raid mythic the first week tbh what they should but won't do is change the first lockout and second lockout of each tier to start at the same time worldwide for mythic only.
Yes, very elegant solution. Let's have them create multiple characters from scratch and gear those up again instead of like, the other side waiting half-a-day.
There are ups and downs.
They would get to have another heroic run and M+ before the EU reset kicks in.
Also, everyone keeps saying this sleep schedule thing. Maybe I'm not old enough to understand how 1 day can fuck up your entire sleep schedule.
The EU reset is around 2 AM in US time (give or take the time-zones).
That would mean going to sleep that much earlier the day before ONCE. Nobody said they would need to keep doing 2 AM raids every day after.
Olympic players don't complain this much about jet-leg for days or weeks. And that is actually affecting their bio-rythm.

I absolutely agree with you.
The issue is that it's called the World First because the goal is to be the first to kill the last boss, not the fastest.
Unlike a traditional speedrun the timer does not matter here, even tho this would be an elegant solution.
Unfortuantely community perception does not accept this solution.
It doesnt matter. It only affects 40 players. Its irrelevant for millions of others.
Let it be, if limit wanted fair game they would have waited 1 day.
You realize gearing up takes like no time right and that they have several months before the next raid will be announced let alone start testing? Bite the bullet and do it now. Also no it doesn't mean doing it once it means doing it for several weeks in advance to get your body accommodated to it as well as during the race because having a consistent schedule is incredibly important when doing the race.
I understand, however the WF culture did not grow up with this perspective.
Since WoW is a thing WF always meant "the first to kill" regardless of time.
This causes the issue that people will start lashing out at WF kills retroactively. It'd be a mess.
You can't change years and years of "culture" unfortunately, even tho the change would be fair.

this is how salty he was. It's adorable really.
See here's the problem with that oh so brilliant idea. Being a video guild isn't hard and once you can copy a tactic you know for sure works it significantly reduces the difficulty of the encounter. The only current solution since blizz refuses to budge on lockouts/release is to set up NA characters because anyone who has participated in the race knows your "suggestion" is an utter joke.
Gearing up takes no time? For WF? They are CONSTANTLY gearing since release for WF. Every day.
Also, no. I'm not old enough to feel unaccomodated cuz of one day. I didn't even say they'd need to not sleep for 24 hours. Just like, 5 hours earlier?
Everyone at their age should have no issue with this, it's not like they are doing construction work or anything.
I had my fair shares of overtime (especially in the movie business) and to me it seemed like people can easily accomodate if they are determined.
