Yeah. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of leeway with the given schedule: Qualifiers end on Friday, people were trying to give me last minute submissions AS the first event was starting!, so I had a weekend to figure out the times.
Then I get on, there are only 4 worlds participating, and of those only 2 of the primaries even bothered showing up ahead of time. 1 didn't show up at all.
Next year I guess there'll be a good global notice a month in advance, then the week of qualifiers, then a week between qualifiers and the main event. Or we'll just stick to the same time - the listed start time remains valid, noon PST/3PM EST/8PM GMT, and everyone who can't make it shouldn't have entered.
The infrastructure was admittedly godawful...I'm apparently sharing a server with a few other PWs, I didn't get to test anything ahead of time, everything I want serverside is clientside, everything I want clientside is serverside, and version 3 has a bug with setstring. |
