Or do you suggest a fixed schedule?

@ALL:
If anyone of us ecounters an open slot at moosehansen's server: grab it! If there isnt a slot available withn the next two weeks, I'll host via PBEM if no one else volunteers... (sigh)
The drawback (as I've just discovered in another game) is suddenly unpredictable deadlines. With a fixed and regular turnaround, you can get into a routine; with an ever-changing schedule - because of quickhost - you can miscalculate and suddenly find you've missed a turn, which is very frustrating.

Meanwhile, please count me in as Ulm if you find a hosting slot.
