I hope nobody is disturbed by a rhytm of about 1 turn / 3 days. I'm at war in the 5 games I play, with big empires in 4 especially this one, and start to have difficulties to find time (ok it's my fault I've spent far too much time these last days finishing my Oeridia map). Anyway I've not finished my orders for this turn, and won't be able before some hours as I have some urgent RL things to do, and it will probably be worse the next weeks as I have an army of nephews coming to my home for christmas holidays.

I am ok with this.

My turns take ages to do in this game, I have a HUGE empire and am fighting a 2 front war. Also I am in 6 MP games and at war in all of them. 2-3 turns a week is more than fine by me.

Finally I'm not the last, so I think everybody agree.

It is nice to remind people that this game is still going, though

Is it possible to put this game on a 72hr quickhost? This works out 2-3 turns a week, so hopefully Twan should be okay. I like a deadline, I tend to be very good at working to a deadline but rubbish when I am allowed to get my turn in whenever.

I think we are entering the end game now, everyone is at war with each another and the results should determine the winner. I reckon another 20-40 turns should see a winner...hopefully...I had a cunning plan to win by the way but Arco spoiled it by attacking me, now I lack resources to carry it out.

What does everyone else think about having a hosting deadline? It will make us finish the game quicker...

When my machine is working again I'll consider it

I agree a 72h quickhost would be a good idea.

DrPraetorious · #**128** December 17th, 2006, 12:10 PM

I am instituting a 48 hr host interval.

Twan · #**129** December 17th, 2006, 01:02 PM

Hum considering I've sent the current turn after 3 days (and another player the same), Man after 4, and the two last players have still to send their orders 2 days after, we risk to have mostly staled or rushed turns with a 48h limit. I'm for a limit to avoid to have just 1 turn/week like this one, but 48h is really short for this kind of monster game, especially in this period (I doubt there will be more than 2 or 3 persons finding the time to play properly if there are 2 days long turns the christmas or new year days).

We really do need a deadline to keep this game moving. I personally would like a 72hr host, I could play to that and Twan has said he could as well. Is 72hr possible?

Otherwise, I am prepared to get on with a 48hr host just to keep the game going and get it completed. At the moment this game is 'drifting', I suppose a 48hr host is fair in that we will all after do 'rushed' turns every now and again...
