If it works as intended the server should when the new turn has been processed state a number of hours to next hosting greater or equal to 24.
My oops. Sorry everyone. I shouldnt try things like this late at night. I will voluntarily take a stale turn and maybe the others who did not get a stale turn message will also. Thats the only option I can think of other than starting over.

Thanks for the tip J.O.
I will copy that into my hosting notes. Generally though I think I will include a line for future games that recommend that both be turned on at the start of the game since it doesnt seem to affect the quickturns that happen early on. I will try and put all my notes for how to get a game started into one new post when the learning curves slows down.
