Thanks for that - it worked fine

I hope that by restarting it I did not get a free move.

Yeah I stale turned because I tried 3-4 times Last morning to log in but it just hung. Then had to go to work (real life sucks) so when I tried 4 hrs later the turn was already processed. I consider this as part of the game on 12 hr hosts. I always seem to have a few stales over a game. No big deal.

Is there any chance of moving to a fixed 12-hour hosting without QH? The unpredictable turn deadlines are starting to become a bit of a worry, and the increasing amount of time it's taking to do turns makes it less practical to do them at work.

I don't want to demand it if everyone else is happy the way things are, but I presume everyone (not just us newbies) is having to take longer over turns. What's the consensus?

Fine by me but this should be up to the Host (Rev Zombie) since he did state this would be a fast track game. We sure did get alot of turns in using the quick host.

I don't care one way or the other.

Frankly, I'm just having fun discovering caelum.

The pace has been rather breakneak, hasn't it? I have had to cram my turn in before heading off to work all this week.

I am not in love with the current schedule any longer, and am open to consider changing to 12 hour fixed, unless someone objects.
