Re: Limited Time Draft Event & Stream!!!!

Hey, @brigal1!

The real life NFL Draft begins at 8PM ET on 4/29, which I believe is 2AM your time in the UK. That is the start of the NFL Draft and because of the pace it goes, it could stretch for a good 3 hours. I wish they did the Draft on a Friday night seeing how people still have to go to work on Fridays. If you're able to stay up, all power to you, but if not I completely understand.

The Draft Night event is 8PM ET - 2AM ET.

The Community Manager mentioned it here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/996822060?t=00h13m59s

So 2AM - 8AM your time. If you get yourself some good nights rest you can definitely get this done early in the morning.

@EA_Blueberry or EA could show some respect for customers outside the US (or night shift workers in the US, even) and schedule the event for at least 12 hours, if not 24.

I don't know how many times I have to miss out on things like this before deciding enough is enough and take my time and money elsewhere. It's not going to be many more, I can assure you.

Not that EA seem to give a monkey's

That event was for Draft night and lasted 6 hours. The Draft events are still available in game though.
