Additional Reservation Times for Eternal Bond Ceremonies... please.

[yexie]

These friday times are just really bad...

Example for Platinum (and I sure want to be able to use the advantage of reserving early if I'm paying for it):

- Europe @ 10:00-11.00 am (since it's on a friday these are regular working hours)
- US Eastcoast (EST) @ 4:00-5:00 am
- US Westcoast (PST) @ 1:00-2:00 am

All pretty bad times for people with work that may not be able to even log on or may be asleep already/still. And you can't really expect us to take a day off work or set the alarm in the middle of the night for this. If we're paying for the whole thing I totally want to be able to sign up at the best times possible without having to go out of my way to do so.

Why can't there be different days and times? Or at least put the times on a weekend.

Pretty sure all the other times are just fully reserved?

I think what they mean is that reservations start at these times. The schedule was filled within a few hours after reservations started, so you want to be able to get there as soon as it starts, which can be hard with the current times.

No. It's not about the specific times for the actual Ceremony. It's about the time when you can RESERVE a time for the ceremony, the time the NPC allows us to pick a time for the wedding.

Fortunately I have free Fridays and my eternal bond partner can log in on Friday too, but I really believe we are just exceptions and that 10 - 11 am for Europeans is just a bad choice. 4-5 PM for platinum, 5 - 6 for gold, 6-7 for normal would be much reasonable in my opinion.

Exactly, and if we pay for Platinum I think we should be able to use the advantage to reserve early.
In my personal case it's not even impossible, I can take my computer to work and log on (if I don't have any customers at the time), but I know people that work at these times and surely CANNOT sign on the game. What I also don't know if both people need to be online for the reservation as well... then I'd have a problem too . (Maybe someone can answer for me if both need to be there for the reservation?).

The reservation system is only open for a few hours each week.
While the actual ceremony has many different timeslots.

In retrospect I appreciate needing a reservation. But I do agree that the amount of time available per week to make a reservation should be eased up on.

My suggestion from another thread:

No matter what time they change it to, someone won't be able to make it due to time zones.

So instead, what they should do, is change the registration time every week (and announce it in advance, like every saturday there should be a bulletin for the upcoming friday's registration time).

They could even make it automated. Like every week it changes by 3 hours (week 1: 12am, week 2 3am, week 3 6am, etc...)
