I will not let this happen again. If someone needs more time they have to tell me how much. In Janlm's case, he told me how much time he needed, but decided not to take his turn when that time came. This is unacceptable game etiquette.

3 hours left to host.

In case server is down, from now on the rule is to report on the forum so I know you didn't just decide to hold up the game for everyone else.

Ok, actually I'll turn on quickhost for now. But let this be a warning. I'll make sure each person knows the new rules.

I know janlm, and I'm quite sure that he didn't do it on purpose.

For all we know, he might actually have been trying to do his turn.

Heavy cavalry appears to be the bane of the great Arcoscephaleian armies...Unfortunatly we have not quite mastered the fine art of disconnecting horse from chariot to form our own cavalry force. 3 chariots were burned (as well as the attached horses) as a result of my overwhelming rage.

Just something to keep in mind, the 36 hour hosting is not meant to give you 36 hours to take a turn. The reason it's 36 and not 48 is because if you take a turn at 5pm and think "oh, I have 24 hours to take a turn, I'll take it again at 5pm" guess what happenes? You've missed your turn because 5pm to 5pm is 24 hours. If I set hosting to 36 hours that means you have till 5am to take your turn again. That 12 hour window is so that you don't have to wake up in the middle of the night to take a turn.

I'm turning off the timer permanently. There's so many complications with having a timer. Say I restart my computer and there's 5 hours left to hosting. That means I have to set it to host in 5 hours and then wake up on time to set it to host in 36 hours, or it will host again in 5 hours.

I could, however, set the timer at certain times of day, but then guess what happenes? If quickhost is on and someone takes a turn at midnight and I set the timer to host at 1am, then it will host twice in one hour.

From now on, only quickhost will be on and I'll keep track of hosting times some other way.

Server should be fine. Maybe my internet went out for a second.
