So in the internal discussions it would appear that someone doesn't support different event endtimes. What rational is used to support that position? Even those who live in areas where the current end times are favorable see why an adjustment would be a fair change. I'm sort of scratching my head trying to figure out why someone would feel that people in Europe/Eastern US wouldn't want a fair shot at the end rewards of the tournaments.

All these puny EST players who struggle to stay awake till midnight can get their early night and we in the GMT (who set the time for the rest of the world) can get more than 2 hours sleep! Simples!

I say that because whomever is willing to burn the most health packs with the strongest/fastest kill deck at the last second (while constantly playing a poke war with whomever they are attacking and using up boosts to get faster kills...which subsequently cost currency making someone more willing maybe to spend on ISO) will win. It's better for business as opposed to say, the top 2 spots being owned by day 2 and top 10 by day 3 due to grinding and diligence.
