What's the turn turnaround time like?

And, really, we we're zipping along very fast until we stopped - Like Alneyan says, the early turns for proportions take very little time - literally, like, two minutes. So, in a five player game with such a quit turnaround, I think we could be in deep pretty quickly - we just need someone to take over that other empire!

So...whadday think?

Three turns in 2 days at the beginning, if I remember rightly. The only thing holding it up was the repeated lateness of a single player. Now he has been kicked it should crack on famously.

Oh, it's AI controlled already. I hate that. The AI makes such a clutter of pointless ship designs. But I'll go look and see if I can find my SEIV disc...

Since we are so early in the game, the AI has not done anything too dangerous for your Empire; at worst, it has built useless ships, and has forgotten to do the colonisation research required to get started (in Proportions 3.XX, you have to do ten levels of a cheap research before being able to colonise anything).

I've applied for the position. But I really just want to drop in for a look-see. I'm really rusty at SEIV.

(And I really should refrain from the temptation of joining any games with Alneyan in it. *Sigh* I'm such a masochist.)

And it's a really bad sign that whenever I try to go to the new SEIV folder I find myself in the Dom2 folder instead...
