I also agree with Calahan about Tartarians. I'd like to see some other end game tactic than a rush for the chalice and Tartarians.

Re: YARG - Yet Another RAND Game [open 14/19]
Maybe you just could make extensions yourself and post here something like "hosting delayed by XX due to request by YY" where YY is nation.

Well, it's probably the best way to be sure that request will be fulfilled.
Let's imagine that someone sends you a PM when you're asleep. You awake and redirect it to WL who is out of town. When he returns in the evening it's just too late.
Probably, not the best scheme

Yeah, communication delays could be a killer. Especially since I think wraithlord is a couple time zones away from me.

Re: YARG - Yet Another RAND Game [open 14/19]
Re: Extension requests - I'd personally prefer to have no message informing the players of extensions, or just a basic "game delayed X hours", and trusting rdonj's judgement on when to allow them.
I think the possible problem with saying "game delayed X hours by request of nation Y" is that if a player in this game is in another game(s), and posts on that games thread(s) "Can I please get a 24 hour delay" then it might start becoming obvious which nation that player is in this game if it is announced which nation requested the delay, especially if it happens more than once. If there is no message at all regarding a delay, or just a basic one, then it becomes a lot harder to figure out who is who. And protecting player indentities is key I think to a good RAND game.
