It shouldn't be a regular thing but if you started playing in one time zone or country and at some point moved to another country which is 9+ hours different than where you started, I don't see it being an issue for a one time change.
I completely agree with not having a mechanic in place where people can change it on their own, that would cause problems as listed above but if it's a 1-2 per year option where you have to go through customer service (military being deployed overseas and stuff) I have no problem with it
Then they should request a server change not a payout time change. Payout time change for a single person or even a handful of people so that it is more convenient would give the people who have a different payout time than the rest of the server a very unfair advantage, as they would have little to no opposition in reaching #1 every day. While everyone else fights for 1st from 5-6, you'd have that one guy that has a payout at midnight so he creeps to rank 1 getting #1 every day, and not because he earned it but because he's a cry baby who couldn't deal with reality.
I served in the Navy too, and I had bigger issues than a payout from a game. But, maybe the reason all these Navy ships are crashing lately is that the new generation of sailors is fighting for # 1 in swgoh, or complaining that the payout time is unfair.
Actually a miracle that Navy ships during your time of service didn't crash regularly. You are as wrong as you are loud and persistent. A dangerous mixture :).
As far as I know your payout time (and all the other ticks) is determined by the time zone of your device at the time you install the game.
Your arena shard is determined when you reach level... was it 27?... well when arena starts. At that time you simply get stuffed into that shard with other new lvl 27s until the shard is full (20000 players). So it has nothing to do with your payout time. And there will already be plenty of players with diverse payout times. And theoretically you can have 24 rank 1 payouts a day already.
So yes: Being able to change the PO-Time can lead to ppl in a shard chat to adjust their times to all grab the number 1 in a day. And/But yes it would help ppl. to that have moved or have other, more urgent matters (job, family, etc.) during those 2 hours direktly before arena PO. So the question ist: What is more important?
