Re: PBeM game length (in real time)?
I find myself in a strange situation as far as PBEM's go.
I technically am playing three games right now, but no turns are forthcoming from any of them. Now that could change tomorrow but as it stands now I can't get a turn sent to me if my life depended on it.
One game has been going on since 19th,April and seems to be sputtering out...
A second game is caught in some kinda setup stasis. Where I purchased the army and sent it off some 10 days ago...
A third game which was to be my "quick fix" to get things moving
along suffered a setback this evening because of incompatible game versions...
It just isnt meant to be, at least for now.
On the issue of game turn length I can't say for sure because each opponent rates turns at a different priority level.
I've played a few rare games where people will send the turn back right away, and I would do the same. Almost playing in real time and maybe getting 10 turns done in a row.
Then there's other players that put it way down on the priority list,possibly even have too many large games going themselves.
Myself I think one turn per 24 hr period is the happy medium.
