This is unwise and unpleasant and will make the game much less fun from now on. At least for me. I'm really losing enthusiasm now. I'm sure the Usurpers may say the same.
But so be it, you are the emperor here and there's no democracy so we have to accept your decision. But we definitely want the delay I previously mentioned. 24h will be enough for us (Supplicants).
Actually, I said all I had to say above and I have nothing more to add. I'm just very surprised with such a stubbornness from admin side after the situation that was caused by improper admin actions. That is hard to understand especially considering the fact that most players are agree to rehost the turn.
But... Enough. I just made the conclusions I had to make.
p.s.

Very simply though, I can only convey my understanding of how delays are handled via direct connect on Gandalf's server. It is an entirely manual process and I have no direct control of the server

If you said this BEFORE this weird situation occurred, it could be understood. But you prefer to keep secret from the players. In everything. So explaining this now doesn't help the situation at all and doesn't help numahr who had no idea of this.

It should have been obvious that those extra 48 hours were far too long when only 8 hours was requested.

Maybe it should. Or maybe it shouldn't. People are used to trust the server because if server time may be changed occasionally then who should they trust? If server says 48h it means 48h. At least for people who play at llamaserver. And if 48h means 8h then each and every player who might have no time to monitor the game thread extensively should be privately notified of this. This is what the job of admin lies in. Not just keeping secret...
Well, once again. Enough. I'll try to keep silence on his point from now on.
