In my opinion, if a player is repeatedly staling, you either find a sub or set their nation to AI. Without exception, you do not force hosting while they still have time on the clock to get their turn in.

The number of provinces that the nation has is not relevant. In any case, a nation with no chance of winning can still affect the outcome of the game.

Regardless of how we got here, we have 3 stales in a row for Fomoria. I'd suggest we put the game on hold until a solution is found. If Longbrodie is out, we should at least attempt to find a sub before setting the nation to AI. Even with 6 provinces, a human player would be much preferable to the computer.

My computer died and I've been without access to a computer all week. Go on without me. Good luck, everyone!

Welcome Ossa. Hate to do this now that we have found a sub for Fomoria but can we move to a 48 hour hosting schedule next week? I'll be traveling and internet available will be intermittent and while I may not always need it, an extra 12 hour buffer would be appreciated.

Personally, I would prefer an indefinite change to a 50 hour hosting interval. That would allow us the option getting turns in at the same time every other day, a nice regular pace. It's basically the same as 48 hours but without 2 hours to prevent the creeping deadline effect.
