i live in australia. i dunno how many other people play from different time zones and have this problem but the olympiad for me is at 04:00 hours. :( . i know that this has been done to help "reduce" farming of the olmypiad but my suggestion is would it be possilbe to have another time maybe 2 hours long. Being such a short time space would mean that all ppl who live in different time zones would be able to play making the olmypiad full of players and hopefully still unfarmable (excludes class only)


My second suggestion is althought olympiad does run at that time i beleive it would be better to delete (if possible) the class only option. i know certain classes dominate the olympiad but i am sure that people can still farm the olympiad by doing class only option

i beleive this is unfair and my interests are only for fair play for all...

Best Wishes,

they stop doing it for 24 hours coz of players farming points....
i say.. do it on the same day... but split into 2 sessions.... so more ppl from different timezones can participate.... make an extra 5 hour or 3 hour session earlier then the current time slot....

ps: the day starts earlier on the eastern part of the world.... not the other way round..... know ur GMT ftw!

its funny u say no work sunday ^^

cos i work on weekends and most of week :(

good to see interest but remember this is only a suggestion topic so its really up to the admins.

i also dont want to see alot longer olmypiad times say 10 hours cos that would encourage farming

i spose this is really hard for the gms cos its a balance for perfect times for all and reducing farming.

thanks for support. (good to see im not the only 1)
