If not, that's fine, I'm just keen to get the game moving again ASAP

Edit: Just realized that it would make more sense to wait until the restart will get us back to running at the same time-of-day, which is in about 11 hours, by my reckoning.
I thought that due to Mose's server crash, it might be frustrating to wipe out our turns again, and I was going to wait till everyone got their next turn in to restart, but, yes, we defenitely should get back on track soon.

It's not really that big a deal to reload a completed turn, after all.

But to give everyone fair warning, why don't I leave it on quickhost for now, and restart with the 12-hour fixed schedule tomorrow (Monday) evening U.S Eastern time (8 p.m.-ish)?

Sounds good. But it used to be 7:30, wasn't it?
That was better for me (the earlier, the better, in fact).

Yes, roughly in that time frame, hopefully.

Sorry, wasn't near my computer to restart at the appointed time.

Will therefore start the timer around 7-7:30 Tuesday a.m. Eastern U.S.; make sure you upload/reload your turn by then.

I notice Gamealot and Reanimator haven't checked in in some time.

Reanimator has been around more recently than Gamealot. AWOL is a possibility.

Now this is odd. I just checked mosehansen, and it says that turns for C'tis and Ulm have not been taken. A couple of hours ago, they had.

Have we had an unscheduled restart, or something ?
