New PBW game: Turn Blitz #1

If the first turn takes an hour and 20 minutes to process, will the second turn process 40 minutes later, or the full hour?

An hour would be the minimum assuming that when the hour was up there were no other games processing at that moment. The hour turn clock shouldn't start till the turn finishes processing the previous turn, not when it starts.

I suppose it dosen't really make a difference whether there are 23 or 24 turns per day.

It would be harder to pick the right time to sit down to play, but once you log in, you can figure out when the next turn is due from the game information screen.

Yeah, that would be the important part. Making sure you check how much time you have left. It would kind of suck if you were 15 minutes into doing your turn and the turn processed due to timeout before you could upload it.

That was one of the things that I had to think about before I signed up; I've been known to spend two hours on a single PBW turn.
