I live in MA and i get angry because events just happen to late for me. So a pacific "dont break the ice" will be at 2:30 PT but thats 5:30 over here and i am eating dinner. I thought vmk would deal with this issue a long time ago. They should have ET and PT events. Or maybe just two totally different VMKs. Tell me what you think.
 
well think of it, at 2:30 pacific if you lived in that area some people would still be working and at school.. take it for granted
 
i know, thats why im saying, mean while we are over here sitting on our @** waiting for the games to come. Thats why we need to different vmks
 
they aren't making 2 VMK's because it would cost too much money...

its just something people in california and such have to live with...
 

Not only that but some of the younger kids the 8 & 9 years olds have to be in bed by 8:00 or 8:30 est and so they are just left out.

Why not have some host games in the afternoon for the East Coasters I really do not see a problem with that.

I dislike being called an "East Coaster", because technically I'm a "Midwester". Lol, if you're confused I live in Ohio.

I think no matter what time zone you're in, you'll find some grief with VMK. I personally don't like using my breakfast/getting ready time in the morning just so I can NPC and make trades at 7 am whereas others can do that at 10am, particularly on the weekends. I also wish VMK were open later for me and didn't close at 10 pm. It would also be nice if host games started later so I wouldn't be at work/school reading about everyone's prizes.

In other words, I am completely content with VMK hours as is. No matter where you are, it ain't going to be perfect.
 
i just dont like it on saturdays, cauz im a early-riser so im up around 6:30 and cant sign in to vmk for 3 1/2 hours, so i come here lol
 
My agenda for week days:

wake up>school>home>VMK and some xbox>eat>some more vmk>sleep by 11

saturdays is the same but no school and bowling at 9 so i miss opening but sometimes i get to closing at 1 am

and sundays u get to opening BUT i cant get to closing.
 
Being a west coaster, I hate having VMK close at the early hour of 10pm. And I rarely see the hour of 7am unless I don't go to bed at all. ;) So opening and closing time is my main complaint, but I deal with it. I definitely wouldn't want TWO separate VMKs, because what would that mean? Would I no longer be able to play with my Dis friends on the east coast because of my time zone? Yuck! :(
 
When they first started the host games, there was a really nice Host_Blue who used to run daily games starting around 1 eastern. I really liked the afternoon games and I wish they would bring them back during the week.
 
I would also like to see earlier games. I have several friends in VMK who live in England and they don't get much of an opportunity to play games. They are on in the morning mainly because it is afternoon there.
