Why Gold & Glory on a holiday weekend?

  • Lot of people have obligations during holiday weekends. Having a G&G weekend on Fathers day weekend is a head scratcher......

  • @z3phlar Some fathers and sons might be playing Sea of Thieves together?

    Double, double gold and glory!

  • @z3phlar sadly matey, there will always be issues with specific weekends for specific players.
    Remember as well that not everyone gets the weekend off; especially if shift working or on a different type of job (hospitality for example).

    Just because it is father's day doesn't mean everyone will be on "holiday". Also; it isn't father's day everywhere in the world on Sunday:

    Austria and Belgium celebrated last weekend, Germany on Ascension day.

  • Whenever G & G weekends are held it's never going satisfy the whole player base. They are kind of damned if they, damned if they don't every single time they do G & G weekend.

    Most people don’t treat it like Christmas.

    Give dad a gift and wish him a day. Hugs and all.

  • @z3phlar Show me a day when all the people's obligations end and I will tell you that in a such a day the Earth stood still.

  • This is like saying why is there an all you can eat buffet coupon deal on a man's birthday.

    If a man with children and maybe a significant other ever had some familial leverage to use for a few hours of peaceful and lucrative fantastical piracy it's on father's day weekend.

  • @wolfmanbush Literally not even close to an accurate comparison.

  • @metal-ravage I'll show you something a lot better than that.

    Such as...?

  • Aww man, it’s holidays for y’all in Europe already!?

  • I swear someone complains no matter what date is chosen for these events.

    there will be camping and bbq's around but a lot of people aren't going to be able to get out much because of the prices being high on things.

    Personally I think it's a fitting weekend for a lot of people that play the game.

  • I’m a dad and I sail with my kids and I totally plan to do some thieving with ‘em on Fathers Day!

    Now if all those other pirates would just let me have my Father of the Day (see what I did there?) in peace….

    Also it already started in the US so there’s a solid Friday afternoon/evening and Saturday even if you have to burn your Sunday givin’ Pops his annual day of tribute.

  • @sshteeve are you defending me? Do you need a gunner?

  • Father's Day is a miss for me - I'm not a dad yet myself, and the dad I have is hundreds of miles away with a new family, so...

    ...I will probably be bitter upon the Sea this weekend - approach with caution.

  • My fathers day will be spent traveling home from a wedding and working at a job I dont need. This Gold and Glory is a bust for me. And so is fathers day. Guess I'll cook myself a steak on Monday and make less gold that night.

  • @drbullhammer always
