This is not fair policy, just luck of the draw or however you open your servers. Considering We had to wait until 4 am EST while the others on the west coast only had to wait UNTIL 1AM.

Interesting since once a server its open, it become open for everyone at same time. So it not matter if other servers open at different times.
Probably what happens is that was an early maintenance completion time instead the whole time, so then you log in too late.
