New Shahrivar game, not on Mosehansen

I had thought we were on 48, only too be told we are were on 24, and only now to be told we were on 48.

Ah, the : "* 25 Hour QH : Will be slowed down to 49 hour or some such as the game progresses and people want it." in the original post led you to believe it was 48 hour hosting. I see. And of course, it displaying "24 hours until next hosting" each time you were the last person to do your turn would also have made it seem like it was a 48 hour game.

All the posts, including your own, from about the 7th of June saying "24 hour", ditto.

Cainhill, besides missing 6 turns, I do not see what I did no enflame you so much. I think, as a new player, in my first, along with the fareun game, there would be some considiration. Instead all I get is you being sarcastic, and being kicked out of the game with out being given a chance to reform.

Most significantly, you were given chances to reform. On the 13th, I posted about you being the only person the game was waiting on, and you staled. On the 14th, same thing. On the 15th, you said "Oops, I didn't know the game was on 24 hour hosting." On the 18th you staled again, and I believe you staled between the 15th and 18th at least once.

So on the 19th I posted that I was asking Ironhawk to set you to AI because of repeated, ongoing, post-discussion staling. You then posted that you didn't appreciate it, but never did you say "damn, sorry, I'll do better in the future". Instead you posted excuses, and examples that I demonstrated to be invalid.

Now, it's a shame you found the game, or rather the experience, unenjoyable. It's also a shame that you kept ignoring your obligation to the other players. And it'll be a shame if you don't learn from this experience, and start accepting that it's largely your own responsibility that you got booted, just as you'd be booted if you got into a game of Risk or Monopoly and wanted to wander away and not take your turns promptly, thus holding the game up for the other players.
