No offense to those outside of these timezones(someone is gonna get screwed over no matter what SW time is), but from what I see the majority of players are from North(Canada, US, Mexico) or South(Brazil, Venezuela, etc) America. For these players SW is anywhere in the range of 3 AM - 6 AM(EST) to 11 PM - 1 AM(PST). The second most population of players is definitely Europe. Their times range from 7 AM - 10 AM(GMT -1) to 10 AM - 2 PM(GMT +2).
Many, if not all of these times are inconvenient(who wakes up at 7 on a Saturday unless they have work or school?)for those in these areas. Which is why I propose to roll back the server time 11 hours and place it in the middle of the Atlantic, possibly GMT -2. This will result in the following time changes:
PST(Earliest times): 12 PM(noon)- 4 PM on Saturday.
EST: 5 PM - 9 PM on Saturday.
GMT -1: 9 PM - 12 AM(midnight) on Saturday.
GMT: 10 PM - 1 AM on Saturday.
GMT +2: 12 AM(midnight) to 4 AM on Saturday.
Of course this could be adjusted to produce earlier times in Europe by setting it back to maybe GMT-3 or GMT-4.
EDIT: Or they could just alter the in-game SW times to produce something similar to this. _________________ Southern_Cross 22X Lancer

Will do.
EDIT:
Here's what I sent.
"I understand you are all busy, both with the item shop in our version and the updates in the other versions of Red Stone.
This is just a quick suggestion regarding server time in the International Version. Currently the server time is set to GMT +10, which I assume is the time you guys operate on. However, most players hail from either North America, South America or Europe. These areas have a time range from GMT -8 in western North and South America to GMT +2 in East Europe.
This causes an issue with siege war timing for players in these regions. For example, players in EST regions(GMT -5) have sieges scheduled from 3 AM - 6 AM. Of course the average person is sleeping at this time, so you can see how this can cause problems. For players in Europe, sieges are scheduled for 8 AM - 11 AM(for GMT).
What I suggest is to adjust either the server or SW times for the International version to better apply to the majority of players.
For example, the server time could be adjusted to something like GMT -2. This would give players in these regions more suitable times(5 - 9 PM EST, 10 PM - 1 AM GMT).
Best wishes,
-Seridor/Southern_Cross"
I'll post the response when I get it. _________________ Southern_Cross 22X Lancer
