Does everyone want to go to once-a-day? Shut it down, restart with no "quick" switch, and hope for no stales?

I'd like to get it to work too... either quickhost, or within 24 (or 36, which I rather like) hours since the Last update.
But until you have a definite idea how that works, could we just cancel one out? At the moment, it hosts at midnight your time and everytime everyone has put in his turns... this means I have to be awake at around 5:00 am my time to see if I am about to get a stale turn - since I am currently trying to do complete my studies more or less seriously, that's not an option for me. 
Did it? Did we get stale turns because it got turned off and back on? (which sems like the program should be able to avoid) or did it do it again after that? If its working the way it should then taking it down and putting it back without the quickhost will create another stale.
