Default Re: New PBW game - Great Experiment 3

Actually, the joke is on me. Apparently, the "Experiment" is seeing how many consequetive turns a game can have that are beyond the time limit.

Now, for a lot of people, I guess it's no big deal. But for me, unless someone is going on a trip or vacation or their PC has broken (or some kind of excuse), a lackadaisical approach to completing turns on time tends to ruin the game for me a bit. Take the pleasure out of it, if you get my drift. I fail to understand why people sign up for games and can't even make the deadlines of the single-digit turns...where it takes about a half a minute to complete a turn.

So, knowing that things will only get worse, I'd like to advertise my position for takeover. I can't enjoy a game where I am eternally irked by continued lateness.

It's a good position...I've been in 1st place since the start of the game. Someone should take it over so that I don't have to pull out of the game (and therefore "hurt" the game for the other players).
