I haven't been paying close attention, but on Belle Air he's either been staling or taking a lot longer than usual to get his Last couple turns in.

I would say staling two turns in a row w/out any explanation is grounds to turn someone over to AI. Staling 3 turns in a row and there shouldn't even be any second thoughts.

and, no, once set to AI it is impossible to change back after the turn hosts.

i'd say if he's about to do a third stale, whomever owns the game should go in a bit before hosting and set him to AI.

for Belle_air that's me, so pls inform me if he's about to do a third stale.

thanks

In Low magic game, he has significantly slowed down his pace of play. We were doing 2 turns per day for quite a while, but no longer. I thought it had to do with the fact that, according to my scouts, two players are killing him in a 2 on 1 and I am pretty sure he will not survive.

I have not been watching very closely, but he sure may have staled some turns.

I'm really not sure if/how many turns he's been staling. There's no way to check is there? I just attacked him and he doesn't have a whole lot of troops and hasn't been terribly proactive in moving them around in the war anyway, so it's hard to tell if he took his turn or not.
