I agree. The problem is that the 72 hours are too long at the start, and way too long if there are players submitting turns not as soon as possible, but a few mins before deadline on principal. I prefer a kind of "within 48 hours if possible, 72 hours maximum as exception". But with such a number of players, and the therefore possible fluctuation, it will be difficult to enforce such a kind of gentleman's agreement.
I think best could be if occasional extensions to 72 hours on personal demand are possible? Makes sense if someone can submit the turn with such an extension, where he could not do so within 48 hours. I only hate it when nearly all turns are in 30 or more hourse before deadline, and the additional time is wasted waiting for players who will not send a turn anyway.
