why are there no EST friendly races

As someone who works 9-5 in EST, I can only do a total of one race for the entire monday-friday next week. Technically I can do two but I'm probably not going to waste my whole friday night staying in just to run one 100 minute fixed seed in PoE. I don't get it, there are 15 races (burst counting as 1), I can race anywhere form 5:30 pm to midnight, yet I can only participate in one. This is kinda ridiculous.

During the 1 week race there are no Competitive races, so the schedule will seem more bare than usual. Not disputing the EST thing, but there are 50-66% the number of races normally going on.

this is not about lesser races during a one week race! the problem is there a not enough races all the time!

really disappointed in ggg and the continued failures with race scheduling

Yup, Est timezone gets continually screwed in race times, particularly people who have "normal hour" jobs. If we are blessed with a race it will be something like 3 hour no projectile party.

yes but why is this not fixed, GGG is known for reading player feedback and we keep telling them that the schedules suck but nothing happens anyway...

just give us hourly races from 18:00 - 22:00 and everyone would be happy!

if we had 1-2 decent champions from 5:30-11:00 pm EST daily I might actually have a shot at Ming's heart. As it stands now I'll just be able to get an andvarius by doing weekend races and the occasional lucky weekday bone I'm throne.
