...except that then would be slap bang in the middle of peak Europe gaming. Any time they pick is going to inconvenience some people somewhere; that being the case, valve might as well release when it's best for them.

Heck, they could even fire it off when they come in at 9AM (PST). Personally my schedule is such that I'm frequently unavailable around 6PM PST, not to mention that I run east cost servers and 9PM EST is precisely when most of my playerbase is looking to play TF2. I'm not trying to give Valve a hard time. I'm trying to advocate a change that would give me and my regulars significantly less of a hard time. -J On Jul 5, 2012, at 10:13 PM, Saul Rennison wrote: You do understand they released at 6pm their time? That's not a ridiculous time for them to update whatsoever, especially if they've been testing the build all day. Give them a break.

Some might say it's pointless to announce update coming then release it in that span. Some may say "why not just send the impending mand. update notice in the morning or yesterdayas to give enough time to actually know to be ready to reboot my server or make sure it took properly" I say no. Nonsense. Why be prepared for anything in the world of valve<3 On Thu, Jul 5, 2012 at 8:45 PM, Eric Smith <er...@valvesoftware.com> wrote: We've released a mandatory update to Team Fortress 2.
