Rotating Game Modes, do they really need to be limited to a few days in a week?

I've played league for around a year or two now and I've enjoyed it a lot and loved what Riot have done with the special game modes they release every so often such as Urf and All for One. But, the fact that the new game modes only appear Friday, Saturday and Sunday shoots everyone in the foot who happens to work during the weekends i.e. me.

I'm not saying "Oh, Rito have to move everything around to suit me" but I feel that when I get home from work at 8pm and have to be up for work 12 hours from that point I don't want to be playing league during the weekend nights. But that means I miss out on these game mode cycles and I'm pretty sure a handful of dedicated players may be in this position too.

What I'm trying to say is, would it be a better idea to do 1 week game mode cycle (Yes, the whole 7 days) and then 1 week of no game mode cycle? I'm sure Riot are kinda worried about people just playing the game mode cycles rather than the real game. But that only happened during Urf that people abandoned the normal game mode to enjoy a different game mode because it was a chance to push champions to the limits.

I really hope what I say is taken into consideration, but I doubt anyone from Riot will see this. [zombie-nunu-bummed]

The reason they're limiting it is that they still think Summoner's Rift is the core gameplay: they don't want people playing nothing but the game modes. Not saying it's fair to people that work on weekends, that's just how they're doing it.

They mentioned something about extending the duration if they need too. But that might be determined by it's popularity, which will be based of the people able to play.

Me too!!! I mainly work over the weekend and I also get back home late in the evening. Hope they could extend the length of featured games a little bit so we could still enjoy a little bititem 3070 item 3070
