Were they what we agreed to do.. no.
You will live to fight another day. Trust in your loving admin. Cleave to my breast. I know what is best for you. Any other comments/suggestions/objections?

The second hosting was a host error, but the only ones who benefited were the AIs.
And any rollback at all tends to ripple the waters making another problem (and rollback) a possiblity.

The previous hosting to that one was on forced timer so rolling that one back would be to allow more time for a team captain to do turns for the entire team (which I think recorded a problem anyway due to matching serials)
Don't sweat such things friend Gandalf. Some players must know that I am only on my computer twice a day (once in the afternoon, once in the late evening). Without an active co-admin to watch out for these things and because of no direct control of the server and the relaying of messages, there is a twighlight zone. But yes, an admin panel via web or an e-mail control of some sort is definately in order and would make things easier in future games. Without it, a good rule of thumb for advance notice will have to be 1/2 of the current hosting interval.
