Thought you'd like to know: The Nightfall World Prevent Event will be extended 12 hours, until 11:59 a.m. PDT (18:59 GMT) on Monday!

You'll see a news post soon, but in the meantime, I thought you'd like the scoop.

Oh..There's something I didn't think of.

If the event is ending at around noon in the U.S. Gaile, the majority of players will be at school or work.

Not a big deal for me missing the last 12 hours, but my main concern is will we all miss the end beta event, assuming there is one?

Cool, but I probably won't use much of the extra time.

As opposed to midnight when normal people with school or work are asleep anyway.

Not really, but I felt the drama was needed.

Midnight on a weekend is at least much more accessible than early - late morning on a weekday.

For me, school doesn't start until 9am. I dont normally go to sleep until around midnight on a regular basis, and thats more or less the same with other students across the nation.

When your doing it at (what probably will start) 10:00am or so, majority of Americans will be at work, and school.

So I dont know your life and business, when you go to work/school, and sleep, it may be different then others.

My only point, is that there are more teens in the GW community (I remember a large poll way back when..) and it's simply more accessable to players when the event starts at 10 or 11 o'clock on a weekend.

Dont get me wrong or anything, I dont intent to sound selfish at all, just voicing my personal opinion.

I do not know that there is any sort of finale planned. I will ask. In the meantime, the extension is in response to player requests, and I'm really happy that we're making the extra effort to offer it.

Hope to see you there.

I have enjoyed the preview event and will most likely be purchasing Nightfall. I probably won't be able to get on for a while, so I gave away my gold and items to the first person I could find. If there is a finale I will be happy yet sad I cannot attend!

Yeah, we're all really happy that your listening to players and making the extra effort as well . Seems like 90% of Nightfall's new features are all idea's from us . So sorry, I didn't mean to sound unapprecaitive at the extention.

Anyways, thanks for taking the time to ask, get back to us when you can!

Meh, anyone on Guru fraps literate? With the change in time the event is now finishing around 4am AEST on a workday. I could get up that early, but I'm not sure I particularly want to do so and then work 12 hours.
