Do we need to slow the game pace down? I don't want to (I'm enjoying the pace thus far), but I see from the first page that we were supposed to at 8 hours after turn 10 (and +8 at each 10 turns thereafter).

Right now, I'm concerned about Helheim (Hoplosternum) - they got in their last turn, but staled the turn before, and they're the last to get in their turn now. Maybe they need some more time?

Scratches head. Good catch Two. Believe it or not I forgot I was the administrator of this game.

I will add 8 hours to the hosting interval. If any player asks for the 8 hour extension we will go to the 32 hour hosting.


I will additionally pm hop.

I see you subscribe to a rather loose definition of "mine."

Although, I will admit, fortune seems to favor the luck scales in these last two turns.

Hey guys... Hellheim is in danger of staling for the second turn in three turns.

I'd like to either:

a). page hoplo and find out if he wants to continue.
b). Find someone to take the Hellheim. The position looks viable: Top quartile in virtually all measures.

Game is in the early phase.
c). If the game isn't viable find somoene to set AI.


So persuant to this I'm adding an additional 24 hours to the clock. I believe that a delay is preferable to a staled player.
As this wasn't covered in the original game setup, I'm updating the first post, and would like comments and feedback asto what you think should happen.

I agree on the extension and looking for someone to take over while we investigate hoplo's status. It's still early enough that going AI would suck.

Yeah, going AI should be the worst case option. Besides, I'm going out of town for two days tonight, and could probably use the extra time
