I don't like those mid host schedules, 30h, 36h or so, I always end up staling the turn due to the constant time differences the turn arrives.

I prefer quickhost personally. 25 and 49h make more sense than 24/48 imo because you can safely play at fixed times yourself if you want to.

I've tried this, but it only works if you can leave it until last to submit your own turn every time. Which is not always possible if you have any RL plans at all, and sometimes risky if you have an unreliable internet connection. So it is far from a safe way of ensuring a fixed hosting time each turn (like quickhost off does). And if you submit just one turn early, that means that turn could host early (due to quickhost), and then you're back to 'the', well 'my', encroaching deadline problem.

There are not many things I haven't tried to lessen my own problem with the quickhost feature, since it became a problem for me almost immediately when I stated playing MP games.

Settings and host time will stay as they are, to avoid confusion. However, I will try to submit my turn so it ends up hosting roughly on the schedule it was on before.

Hmmm... I could swear I already sent my turn... Anyway, (re-)sent now.

My main problem right now is the lack of home 'net access, should be able to take back TC this Thursday or so.

qm, if you are the last one to submit, and you are waiting to submit until near the deadline... it might be more efficient to simply submit whenever you notice and then add a delay equal to however many hours you submitted...

I'd understand if noobs always teamed up against someone, but in dominions, it's always the opposite for some reason, vets tend to do it for more, it's a little disappointing...

Hm, who would have expected that Lich to be so resilient.

Well, come and get me ya bastards!
