They are not random anymore. And happen on us prime time weekend. Probably there is a script to trigger the quake and its a set of few people that may trigger it.

Most likely use case is rogean get time over at weekend. And log into server an run script.

Its unfortunate for people working weekends and people not living in the usa. But it is at it is. I gave up on it, the only chance you would see a quake not weekend or prime time in the usa is rogean sleeping/work hours changing.

Why they removed the random script triggering random quakes i do not know.

there was never a random script. come, stay a while, and listen.

once, in the beforetime, in the long long ago, there was set by the gods a policy to quake twice a month. but, since quakes were manual, as now, this resulted in one or both quakes going so late in the month that people would poopsock them! one dreadful winter, darker and colder than is normal for the season, as if auguring events to come, this angered he who shall not be named. his wrath was great. thus did he persuade the gods to change the quake policy from two to 0-3 quakes a month. thus was the server plunged from the golden age of quakes, its brief moment in the light snuffed out and extinguished. thus was born the dark and quakeless age wherein we linger still.

Ohhhh, so in beforetime the gods were indeed by their own hand spreading its wealth fairly to all the inhabitants of the land. At some point we, the filthy men of the old continent must have been angering the gods to the point they only spread the golden quakes to the great isle of the west.

The best time to quake is Saturday evening.

As the weeks go by and windows naturally spread further and further apart, they all still land within range of the weekend.

I would prefer quakes on Monday / Tuesday around 10am-12pm EST because I am a stay at home Everquest son and I will have the least competition at those times, thanks.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.
