Absolutly ****ing yes!!!

This god damn game took two ****ing months to even start. Who gives a flying **** about two or six or twenty days delay? Mostly because it took you that long to learn what hosting required and to fart around figuring out how AI's work.

I can't believe we need a goddamn poll to figure out that people might want a break a Christmas.

Most of us play more than one game Sept. And we don't test our damn strategies in a team game.
The point is Maerlande, this is your game, it is Viccio's game, it belongs to all the players, to everyone who waited 2 months to play, to everyone who is playing now. It can be handled several ways, I want to make sure everyone knows what the options are and has a chance to decide. This is not a dictatorship, nor an oligarchy!

If you have issues with the way I run my games or have done so in the past that is your right, but please don't tell everyone else what they must or must not do, especially myself. And players, don't let "custom", one or two other players, or anyone else tell you how the game should proceed or be run.

In reality, as I've stated, the question is not really whether a break is implemented but how it can be done. I've provided the option for continuing on schedule to attempt to be fair to all players, but as I stated I am confident that players will vote for a delay in some form or other. Llamaserver based games cannot shut off the hosting timer from the admin page, so to tell people that everyone is doing that is simply incorrect. Our game is a bit unique due to the hosting platform in that regard.
