    Lol love how everyone is just waiting for the event to come up so that our Tuesdays can have a little more variety. icon_e_smile.gif
  • Not 1 pm eastern ..

    Here I was thinking I could do a round of LR before I slept. It's already 1AM here. Seriously, this game has messed up my sleeping habits. icon_eek.gif
  • Hm... What to do until LRs? Wait on the forum thinking about playing LR... This game has ruined me.

    I'll guess they start at 11P.M CST. Because there will be 12 hours left in the widow event and it just seems like the right time for them to start. icon_e_confused.gif

    My guess is it will have to be some even hour or they will not end correctly or start all the sub events on the even hours like they always do
  • Is there any particular reason why the event pop up on the app cannot show start times (or even start and end times, although why get greedy)?
  • Why did I even wait? It's not as if the LRs won't be there when I wake up. ****. Can't stay awake any longer. Too sleepy. Good luck with the LRs for those who'll wait.

    My theory is they track how many people have posted asking when the rounds start, and then only start them once their count passes a certain threshold. With the mods policing the forums there are fewer spammed threads now, so it takes longer to reach the critical number of posts... icon_e_wink.gif

    You know, I actually think that the mere existence of mods has decreased the spam and flames dramatically. Makes for a pretty boring job, I must say.

    That being said, I did just lock the LR thread in general - no critical mass for you!

    Oh, so it's _your_ fault we don't have LRs yet, eh?

    Agreed.

    I think it also helps that there has been a thread stickied at the top of the board since they were announced in-game, so everyone can see that no-one knows **** is going on... icon_e_wink.gif

    Excellent use of the underscores for emphasis. I wholeheartedly approve of your subtle endorsement of my alliance.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to make sure no one has snuck an LR thread into any of the other subs.
