One-time timezone change
Hey devs, I appreciate what you are doing by allowing people who have moved long distances to do a one-time time zone change. My question is, why not just allow every player to do a one-time chang...

Yeah, I just don't see how a one-time switch can be "abused" or can be used to "game the system" really. Specifically how would people abuse this one-time power? Maybe you'd get a better payout time with less competition, but the total number of payouts wouldn't change.
A shard chat that has 50% or more of it's people 2-3 POs moves people around to then have them spread out to 8-10 POs.
The odds of a shard having an active person in every PO hour is not likely. So yes it would increase the PO.
It is possible to abuse, well beyond that, as a group of a smaller number could then split up hours and lock out larger number of players while keep 1st spots for themselves. This goes beyond chats that can do this now as in chats you will still have multiple people in the same hour.
Yeah, that's true that the amount of crystals CG gives out would increase as people spread out to different payouts.
As for a small group locking people out of multiple different payout hours... I mean, that's possible of course but doesn't seem too practical. You'd have to use up battles protecting people in multiple other payouts, which would lead to lots of refreshes. Plus the rest of the shard could get together and put a stop to it. Seems more likely people would spread out to various payouts and create new rotations at the top with fewer people in them.
I'm not saying its likely but if could guarantee 8-12 people #1 every day. I'm sure they would work together to make that happen.
If you read other threads about shard chats there are groups that do this already, and they are not all getting #1 rewards right now. So it's possible.
