    Lol. What’s so important that you really need another day? What we deserve, if we pay for the game, is a functioning game without insane lag, crashes and bugs that haven’t been fixed for years. Another day of a festival? No we don’t deserve that because it’s just the way it is.

    It's not just me I am arguing this for everyone, ironically the extra day would also benefit you but clearly you are so opposed to your own self interest that you aren't in favor of it.

    Not my problem.

    No, I'm okay with losing entire days of annual events because I feel that is fair to me

    Goodness, the wording for the poll questions is very biased indeed! Too much so to vote in my opinion.

    Losing a whole day to maintenance? Is your day only 3-4 hours long? That is a good estimate for a maintenance/patch downtime. Isn't the maintenance in question a normal Monday patch/maintenance session? I'm sure that was counted in when the original dates for the Festival were determined.

    If the servers were to go all wonky for a couple full days (as they sometimes have) then there might be some logic to extending the event.

    My only concern on timing the event is introducing a new DLC before an annual event is even over. If anything should have been changed, it would perhaps be a two week delay before introducing the pending DLC.

    My two Septims, anyway. :)

    Emphasis mine.

    I'm not voting either way on this one, but due to timezone differences and the fact that I work as a teacher and have a wife and 7-month old son... yes, my "play day" is only 3-4 hours long.

    4:00AM EDT falls at 5:00PM my time... 3-4 hours means 5-8/9. You know what that is? That's my only time to play before I have to prep lessons/take the night-shift on looking after my son.

    This is a loss of a day. Every time they do a maintenance, I lose a day. Gone.

    Do I think that requires recompense? I doubt it. Not that it matters, I doubt ZOS would give it even if this poll turned out 100% in favour.

    One day? It’s a few hours at best. The achievement takes a day to complete, two at best. 3-4 if you have to work all week. This is not even close to being worthy of an extension.

    We really aren't every going to let go that patch where it really did take a day. So you never can be so sure

    The levels of entitlement on this forum are astounding. Also the fact the threads today are either people talking about how rubbish the event is or that they want it extending. Which is it?

    The patch is planned, not Emergancy, clearly the dates were set and this included. Emergancy unplanned outage. Ok maybe some cause to extend.

    But how long do you need to collect things already all over the place in the game

    the event is 11 days having to spend 4 hours or so on maintenance isn't going to kill the event

    Do you want more days to be taken from it too, or only 1? Just trying to understand your position, that's all. :)

    you are complaining that a day was taken away, maintenance is only 4 hours give or take. The event is like 11 days long the is plenty of time to do event and benefit from xp and skull drops. I can't help it if you worded your poll way you did, it's rather biased. lol heck you probably waist more time commenting on this thread then you do on maintenance.

    No. You're aren't entitled to anything. Even if you've been subbed for 3 years, you don't get free rides.

    You have like 8 days left to finish your Skyreach runs. Just go for it already.

    The fact we lose this day does mean that we deserve something for it, whether or not this fact is acknowledged by people.

    The people that are so against our side of the argument are just not personally affected by it, so it is very easy for them to not care and also to simultaneously hold disdain for our point of view.

    It affects me as this is when I usually have time to play, but I know maintenance is scheduled for Mondays and I also knew that CWC is coming today.

    When ZOS set the dates for the festival they knew about Monday maintenance and CWC release so it is clear they scheduled it for this length with that in mind.

    If we had an unscheduled outage during the event they might extend it but we would not be entitled to it.

    And, as others have started to poll is biased.

    Why do we need compensation for something that's free to begin with?

    I'm glad we're getting a new dlc during the event - I want to start working on trait changes rather than just skull farming.
