And here I thought that "No quickhost" meant, you know, no quickhost. A regularly paced game. Not one that drags on and on waiting interminably for people who can't bother to take their turns even though they signed up for the game knowing it was going (excuse me, supposed) to be 24 hour turns, period.

There is no dragging going on. The game is, other than the time lost to restart, on schedule. And everyone's turn is in, actually, except mine (busy day, sorry). I'll be putting the game on 24 hour hosting tonight once I have turned.

Norfleet's message was several days ago - I held the server on quickhost for you then.

I don't *think* anyone has staled so far. But then I am not paying THAT much attention to such things, since we are now on the originally planned 24-hour non quickhost.

I see to be having a problem of some kind. The game has told me I have an unexplained increase of wealth. My turn bears only vague resemblance to what I told it to do Last turn. My position can be described as only mediocre at best. Should I go AI in light of this, or would you all just prefer I stay in and play it as it lies?

I think it would probably be better for you to go AI, otherwise there will probably be a lingering suspicion of cheating. But it is not really my decision.

Probably. I'll just do that right now.

And YellowCactus....I will get you next time! And your monkey, too!
