Default Re: MP: Mon-Fri 12.00h UTC fixed scheduled host (game in progress)

Just another question on quick-host: If it's enabled together with that fixed schedule, then there wouldnt be any problem, would there be?

Say that it will next host on Tue 12.00h, but now all turns were committed by Tue 11.00h, so it will host at Tue 11.00h and skip the hosting at Tue 12.00h, scheduling for hosting on Wed 12.00h. (Was explained that way in an older thread) So everybody knows for sure that his turn will be available (at least) after 12.00h and that he has only to commit before 12.00h the next day without getting a stale turn.

So enabling QH doesnt hurt with a fixed schedule, while the benefit would be that the player who commits his turn as the Last one could download his turn immediately without waiting (and reconnecting to the internet) and that we might occasionally have a turn on some weekends if everybody happens to be available, yet without any risk of stale turns, right?
