6 hours allowed for players to squeeze in time for digital monster hunting around their other activities... around our actual LIVES. Many of us were playing for 2-4 hours sometime during that 6-hour time block and then carrying on with our lives with the rest of the time. 1/5

Some played from 11-2, some from 2-5, some from like 11-12 and then again from 3-5, depending on their availability. Niantic seems to want us to plan our day around Community Day and other events most every weekend. 2/5

This is just another sign of that: play during these three specific hours -- far less flexible -- or don't play at all, sucks to be you, get good lolz. This is yet another big slap in the face to the playerbase, more proof you do NOT #HearUsNiantic. 3/5

Again, this game is NOT our life, @NianticLabs. It's something we fit into our already busy lives where we can, not something we plan every weekend around. Who is this supposed to help? How can you be SO deaf? This almost seems like a willful, deliberate troll job. 4/5

Saying “only five percent of our Trainers tend to participate in the event for more than three hours” does NOT mean we’re available the same 3 hours. Having that flexibility taken away based on badly misguided logic and interpretation of data is really tone deaf. #HEARUSNIANTIC!
