Thanks for the clarification, no bad feelings.

Server hosted & is going to host again in 8 hours!

Gandalf, cannot we move to either quickhost or fixed hosting, but not both?

Its not supposed to do the midnight thing if it does a quick one.

In my personal experience its best to set a game to Host 24 Hours, then click quickhost. That gives everyone 24 hours to host their turn, and when the next turn is availiable another 24 hours. Thus games *can* go at a quick rate, but can go slower for those who have a problem with getting to the computer regularly.

Set Host Schedule > Set Schedule in Hours 24 > Check the Quichost box.

I actually prefer a maximum time of 36 hours, as the extra half day gives people a better chance to get their turn in if their sleeping cycle gets out of sync with the turns.

That has some good points to it. But a problem if you have a blow-off like we did with Pythium.

Zen, thanks but I dont have menu access on my hostings. Only command line.

There isn't a command line switch for host in hours?

-hours 36 -q


And yes, I can see that, without a Master Password and having someone flake on you, you'd have to force it every 24/36 hours whatever.
