Having never done this before, I am not all that certain how it works. I assume that I must make the change BEFORE you move so it will be in effect while you are away. if anyone knows for sure how this works on Mose Hansen, I would appreciate your wisdom.

In short: When you change it the host time to 48, the next hosting will be in 48 hours.

Submitted turns should no longer be lost, though I haven't had this confirmed outside of my own testing.

Hope this helps.

OK, I think I have it.

Just to be safe, I will change the host schedule to 48 hours before moving. Then I will then do my turn and hopefully it will not be lost. Next, the current turns host normally, either by quickhost or by the 24 hours running out. The following turn will then immediately show 48 hours to the next host.

I can then do the reverse to change back to 24 hours.

By the way, your math is wrong. Are you a lawyer or something?

From 7 AM Thursday to 11 PM Friday is only 40 hours.
HEY! I'm a lawyer and take exception with your foul dispersion on my beloved profession. What? Are you an Engineer or something?

You probably guessed that I checked your profile.

Hey! I like this game so far. Already share a border with Machaka (the new Great Spider Lord, no doubt), and I see you (PANTHER) to my south.

Wow, I'm almost wiped out already. I suppose it's no surprise when my lands are defended by a skeleton crew.

I was wondering why your province count was heading the wrong direction. Who did this to you?

Well, honestly I fault myself. I probably should have played it a bit safer. Instead, I launched an ill-advised invasion against independents and lost my prophet and starting troops in the process. Because I cannot recruit on this setting (which I have never before played) I've been pretty weak since then. So along comes Mictlan, he smells weakness, invades my two poorly defended provinces and is sieging my Last. So it's almost time to go to the grave (again). I can hardly blame Mictlan, though I always long for a long interesting life. He doesn’t sound like he’s in a bargaining mood either.

Yeah I saw some of the action with my scouts and boy Mictlan handed it to you on a plate without much trouble for him. Mind you I have little sympathy for Ahen Empire Ermor I mean diplomatically you are just begging for your neighbours to attack you. I think this map is not suited to this empire at all. And why dont people take normal Ermor? Theyre not bad IMO,playing them in single player I had a great time and diplomatically you are not the evil one to be destroyed by all as soon as they can gang up on you.
