So, does Japan not have night shifts?
I guess it might be hard with stone set business hours being the standard...but they tend to be the most fun.

Regardless of it, they're patching at the time they feel comfortable with, no reason for whining. For once americans gets the short end of the stick OH GOD OH GOD. It's not the end of the world.
They won't make separate maints cause of how the client works, you have the chance to chose where to play at all time, may it be jp or na/eu, so it just makes sense that they do one big main to update all at the same time. Less risk of something going wrong and whatnot. Everyone in the world but US has dealt with it already, i'm pretty sure that if for once US deals with it, it won't be the end of the world.
