west coast players are 3 hours ahead of east coast. their 9pm is our 12am. and our 6pm is their 3pm. I think they do vanafest in the west coast is because their US offices are in the west coast

There do seem to be a lot of east-coasters playing both this and XI. There was an old figure that stated that 75% of the country's population lived east of the Mississippi River. Living in San Diego, I do feel for you guys. Maybe its a weather thing, maybe its a space thing. I hear you guys are pretty cramped in NYC/Philadelphia area. I'm sure the reason we get things like E3 in Los Angeles and ComicCon in San Diego are for the weather. I don't wanna be anywhere near places like Florida or New York in June and July. And I also feel that California in general is way more progressive than the rest of the country when it comes to technological things. You've heard of east-coast bias in the sports media, right. Maybe there's a west-coast bias for technology, iunno. And as far as SE in particular, I'm sure NYC has an ample asian population, California is by far the leader in that as well as far as I've seen, its just a matter of geography. I'm just makin all this stuff up as possible reasons why you don't get things like this, I have no idea, but I'm sure a lot has to do with proximity to Japan and the weather.

Yeah good point as well. I remember the old XI support number was a local 858 area code. I thought that was really cool heh. I think they've since moved to Los Angeles.

I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.
man... i live near Los Angeles and its too far of a drive. about an hour tops. =( never attended any of the events lol they are too far :P
You could host your own community event, you know. >_>
