Raid Start Times

I noticed the last couple start-times for raiding have been earlier than the previous 9:30pm EST / 6:30 pm PST start-times. Is this a trend, or a fluke?

If it's a trend, then that's fantastic for myself. Kinda threw me off yesterday with the extra-hour earlier start time.

I agree, starting at 9:30 est hurts big time on the amount of time we have to actually acomplish anything. It also hurts to find the last couple people for the raid, as by that time of night most rift raids are well underway or people have decided to do other things for the evening.

We had a great run this week with the earlier times.

Friday - Start ---> through thrang
Saturday -- DEAD BALROG!

Grats guys, was a really good job by all.

I agree. The earlier the better and I'm hoping to continue the trend of earlier start times. Not getting off work on weekdays until 5 PST, that's a bit of a limiting factor - but Fridays and weekends I'd like to continue to have earlier times... and maybe once things get going, set an early assembly time during the weekdays and delegate initial raid forming to someone who can get online before me.

And yes, that was an awesome run last weekend!
