Default Re: MP Game - Anyone interested in a *really* slow

Hello all players!

Is anyone still playing this game?

All the turns are now taking the whole time.
This is not working!

I have a feeling that everybody seems to be losing interest. The idea of 4 days quickhost was good when we had no staling players. Now it seems there are several stales every turn.

Come on! You have 96 hours to do your turns!

I suggest that everybody still playing says hello here. Then we put everyone else to AI.
Another solution would be to move to 48 hours quick host.

What do you think? Please respond something at least, or I fear this game will die.

I've been taking the turns, and as far as taking the full turns, I signed up _because_ it was a 96hr pace meaning that it wouldn't get hectic w/ other schedules.

If people really want to go 48QH, fine by me - me going AI might inconvenience a few nations though.

I'm still here. I staled once due to simply forgetting about the game because of such long gaps between turns... I won't do it again though since this is now the only game I'm in. Of course, I may only Last another 2 turns

I really needed to whine a little. I feel better already.

I must clarify. I like the long turns. I joined the game, for the same reason as you did Cainehill.
What I find annoying is waiting every turn for people who do not take their turns.

I have several times done my turns during the Last 10 hours.

I'm still in. The game was supposed to be *really* slow. No reason to worry I think
