Rotating game modes on only weekends are a bad decision.

Hi. My name is Lily and I have missed nearly all of URF this weekend. I personally have had to work 24 of the last 48 hours and barely got to touch the game mode before it disappeared right before I got home this morning from work. I know I am not alone in this.

I understand that weekends are generally when a good portion of players are free, but I do not like that you do not seem to be taking into account the working adults who sometimes have jobs that cannot stop functioning on weekends. People like doctors, policemen, firefighters, nurses, in-home care aides for the mentally and physically disabled, and retail workers, and more are missing out on URF and every other rotating game mode because that two day window is just too short.

I understand what you're trying to do, but what's going to happen is that the people who are continually missing out on all the fun modes aren't going to play anymore. When people miss out, they start wondering if the company even cares if they want to play. I know you care more than that. Let's act like it.

They'll be back, don't worry. It's rotating after all, so you'll get a chance later. :)

And yes, I'm a working adult who works every other weekend. I know how you feel, but Riot can't conform to everyone. Weekend fits for almost everyone, and Riot tends to turn to the majority.

They could do different things, like have it active from wednesday-sunday. Just increase the number of days by one or two and they would make a lot more people much happier and more willing to play with friends.

I can't be guaranteed that I'll have a chance later, because we don't have a schedule. That's the issue.

They have a reason for not extending it. Last time URF was live they had it up for 2 weeks. People got fed up with it. Friday - Sunday works perfectly well.

If you're a working adult you definitely won't have time in the middle of the week either.

Woah what kinda work do you have? I work in retail and I work every single day of the week, only getting every other weekend off.
