Just an idea. But what if you can have the option to start your league games earlier? Example: World League games sim for me @ 6pm Central time. But say im all ready to go then I can check a box that says im ready to sim. Then it sends an alert to the opposing teams owner with an accept or decline and if they are ready they can accept and the game sims early. If they are not ready then they can just ignore it or click decline, which will make the game sim at its normal time.

And make it where this can only be done on the day of the game. To prevent people getting ahead in games.

Thoughts? Whole reason for coming up with this is I get bored sometimes and hate waiting for my games to sim when im ready/dont care and other team is ready/dont care. Also think it would be good for those european players who are 6+ hours ahead of us so games sim well after midnight for them.

It would essentially just be moving most league games up and it would just put more strain on the servers with more games at the same time and not spread through out the day and probably cause late games for teams who are actually supposed to have their games simmed then

I doubt this. And I doubt many people would actually move their games up from the normal time. But atleast it would be an option to have incase you wanted to. Whether youre bored, going out of town/state/country, anxious, dying, whatever it may be, you can have the option to play earlier(if other team does too)

Too many issues with Team A wanting their games at 7am, Team B at 12pm, Team C at 8pm, Team D at 5pm, Team E at 4am (they live in Taiwan or somewhere).

I would rather have the option to sim games later.

I hate morning/afternoon/early eavining league games. Prefer the 8-10pm sims.

Not really, since you don't get to request the time, just sign when you are ready. If both team signed in and a server is ready you can sim
_______
However

1. Cannot work with survivor games.
2. Can only generate problems between coordinators, owner and agents out of sync. It is good that everyone know exactly when the team is playing.

This defeats the whole purpose of spreading the league sim times out, which decreases strain on the servers.

Server issues can be resolved by modifying the OP to "simmed when the server has time", which could be right away or could be the same time as usual, depending.

This might actually let the server handle things more easily.

This, however, is an issue thats hard to get around.

Speaking of which, wonder if I have time to get my picks in!
