First, the Flash Events have been great. Gives me something to look forward to and they have awesome rewards for very minimal effort. I am all for increasing their usage.
Second, I see both sides of the timing debate. On the one hand, you are offered X number of attempts to earn some pretty nice rewards but you have to do it at predetermined times. You either have the time or you don't. Those that have the time will benefit more than those that don't.
On the other hand, we have a member in our guild that is in the US military. He downloaded the game while stationed in Japan and is now set to Japan time. He is currently home in the US and this is causing him some issues competing in arena and completing all the flash events offered.
I understand why the devs are handling it as they are since it increases traffic in the game. But you would get the same amount of traffic by allowing X number of attempts on your own schedule with a cool down period between attempts. It may even cause the traffic numbers to go up as more people could attempt the events. As of now, those that can't log in on time just skip it.
So I think keeping the events but allowing a given number of attempts with a cool down between them would actually be a win-win.
