Since Vfb has the Nation now i will take off the 48 hour extension and give it a 12 hour as requested by someone else.

Shortening the hosting interval usually isn't a good idea. There's still 6 nations who haven't got their turns in, and just 4 hours to host now.

Yes I didn't realise myself, I had sent in a preliminary turn but I thought I would be able to finalise it tonight.

Perhaps another 12 hours? It looks like all the others bar Ulm and Pangaea are staling out anyway.

i see my nation has been stolen. oh well. if VFB wants it, he can finish it off. no worries

Oh hey, did your PC get fixed already? Cool!

I was just trying to help out, so ask GB and he'll give you your game back.

actually i just managed to get dom running on laptop.

GrudgeBringer · #**157** December 10th, 2009, 12:50 AM

I will add another 12 hours to the turn to be sure

I agree with vfb.. I thought the host will be on friday 17.00gmt something. If you give more time for playing the turns, please don't change it anymore - at least backwards.

The original host time had a 12 hour extension for Helheim.

When the water burst over Frozen Lama's computer I set an ADDITIONAL 48 hours to allow him to figure out what he wanted to do.

I announced why and how long.

When a sub came forward and said he was ready to play instead of a 48 hour extension which was not needed I gave the original 12 asked for and an additional 12 for stragglers.

We have 3 nations that have gone to staling every turn and when it gets down to only them I force host.

Emergency extensions like the one for FL are the exception, and I keep an eye on the turn submitted file and have never let anyone stale yet.

You can always PM me with a request or a reason to keep an abnormally long extension when not needed in force and I will make sure you don't stale.

If Rlyeh is just staling, we should be looking for a sub. They seem to be in a halfway decent position (relative to Atlantis at least), and it seems a shame to have them just stale themselves into oblivion...

The other staling nations are generally irrelevant, with 2 and 0 provinces, so i wouldn't bother. But Rlyeh could actually do something.
