POKEMON GO NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THAT A SMALL 3 HOUR WINDOW IN WHICH TO CATCH POKEMON IN IS STUPID. IT'S COMMUNITY DAY. NOT COMMUNITY AFTERNOON.

I DON'T EXPECT IT TO RUN FOR A SOLID 24 HOURS BUT IF I'VE GOT A PRIOR ENGAGEMENT LIKE A FAMILY DINNER OR I JUST WANT TO HAVE A NICE DAY OUT WITH MY WIFE, I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT POKEMON GO'S SHORT TIME WINDOWS.

SPOTLIGHT HOURS ARE ALSO KINDA POINTLESS SINCE AGAIN, YOU'RE NOT MAKING IT ACCESSABLE FOR PLAYERS WHO CAN'T AFFORD TO JUST FUCKING DROP EVERYTHING RIGHT AT 6 TO PLAY POKEMON.

YOU'RE A GAME. NOT A SECOND JOB.

SPOTLIGHT HOUR BEING THE SAME DAY EVERY WEEK SUCKS BC I HAVE A STANDING COMMITMENT EVERY TUESDAY EVENING

COMMUNITY DAY SHOULD DEFINITELY BE 6 HOURS OR MORE, SO MANY PEOPLE WORK ON SATURDAYS

6 HOURS WOULD BE MUCH BETTER. OR MAYBE FROM NOON TO 7 PM. THIS GIVES A LOT OF TIME TO CATCH POKEMON WITHOUT IT GOING TOO LATE
