DDO is played worldwide, the vast majority of players play during evening hours of the Eastern and Central US 4pm to 12am, we all know what happens when you assume anything but if the hypothesis fits the data, most players are US East coast centric.
The population on Khyber is down this weekend compared to last weekend, both unscientifically looking at the Who List and from DDO Audit. Assuming that some players play more over a holiday weekend, that means there are even fewer players online.
That all supports my position that if SSG was going to have a Guild Renown weekend it would have been better served next weekend or even last weekend.
You know that this game is played worldwide, don't you? Keeping that in mind, it would be hard to make everyone happy. Plus many people have more time to play on holidays, not less.
