I'm on the fence about this idea. I fully support the idea of playing the single player more to show it's important, but agreeing to not play the game on Sunday seems pointless. EA/Bioware are extremely aware of the community being angry about the ending. Not playing the game if anything just deprives people who want to play the game from the joy of doing so. So I guess I'm half committed, I'll be glad to play the single player game on Saturday. However, if I get the urge to play on Sunday I'll probably do that as well. I don't see how this protest will do much good either way.
People who have a weekend off tend to play on multiple days. By playing on Sunday, there is no way to infer a difference between the people who want a better ending and still want to play the game and some schmucks who just only have time on the weekend. Polls can be doctored, people can sign petitions with fake names. But this "protest" uses EA's own tracking system to show how substantial the dissatisfaction is.
If you don't want to participate, that's fine. But please don't take part in this discussion or any others regarding attempts to get BioWare/EA to address the ending.
OP, this sounds like a good idea. I'll throw my hat in. Maybe some numbers EA knows they can trust will make the point sink in. And I guess it would be a good reason to start another playthrough. At least everything not occurring on Earth makes for a fairly decent game.

I'LL DO IT. Not very hard to stay off of ME3 as it is right now anyway, seeing as though I haven't touched it in at least a few weeks.

I think EA/BW is already fully aware of the impact this ending has had on their servers. If it weren't they wouldn't be trying to gin up interest in the MP by an unending barrage of MP weekends and they wouldn't be canceling other DLC plans to work on the free Extended Cut.
That move is entirely political, just so they can say that they attempted to satisfy the "entitled unreasonable demands" of the fanbase. They are currently marketing the game as "having the most controversial ending of all time", lol.
Finally, EA will bend arms around the industry to get ME3 as GOTY, to further invalidate the charges that the game is just a poorly executed mess.
The reality, at this point, is that Bioware doesn't care and turning off/on your console isn't going to change that. Probably they will survive this black eye, but the real tragedy is that ME will be remembered merely as a decent series of games and not a sci-fi masterpiece on par with any, like it could have been.

It was on the verge of becoming "that game" or "that series" - but yeah, the legend is fading, this is why Bioware need to patch the crap out of the game with more content and better, new endings.

Retake what? Retake the nerd rage when the Extended Cut DLC isn't what you want. I agree with that.Because yu all will. And you know it.

I'm just not sure they have the long term vision to understand that ME was really the goose that lays golden eggs. At this point it should be obvious that they don't care, or they think that they will still be able to market ME merchandise and games despite this. I don't see how, but I never imagined that the series could continue without Shepard, anyway.

Nice plan! So sad that it just will not work... Your premise is wrong: the only thing they need to know is that people are playing. And, don't lie to yourself or anyone else, we WILL buy any DLC they put out.

Your right they will survive this, but when you combine the amount of money EA is spending every year for exclusive rights for their sports games with the last 3 Bioware games having problems, it will have an effect on future plans.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but couldn't you simply deactivate the 'Upload Gameplay Feedback' option on Sunday and play anyway? I'm not saying that would be what I'll do, it's just something I keep wondering about.
