Nah Jurri is just a true sadist.

Turin you forgot the psychological part. Though i am always a huge hazadeur when i get the impression it is hopeless i surrender in mind. And this has influence on my playstyle too.
So i play rather like Wilhelm II than like Napoleon if i would compare me to famous historic warlords.
Wilhelm II was very daring too but when he realized it is in vain he surrendered.
Finally i know that you are a very skilled player.
So i am subjectively very convinced now that unless you would disband all your forces or let your cat play you can't lose anymore

So if we continue i will search a sub. Because my allies don't deserve a demotivated ally like me but a fully motivated one . I'll ask QM and Half if they want to sub maybe.
Sorry guys. It has taken a while but i found finally out that the only thing i enjoy about lategame is hoarding but that's impossible with ermor + CB. So i rather continue playing blitzes till Dom3 is released and won't participate any "normal" servergames anymore.
You may call me a hedonist

Default Re: turnaround is very slow

Well, my problem is keeping interest in the game because turnaround time seems to now be 5-7 days. It is of course fine when people have to go away for a period of time, but when people are here it still takes a long time to host a turn. In the beginning of this game we were humming, but now we are very, very slow.

Does anyone else agree or am I off base here?

If we are to go down, let's go down in a last blazing charge of glory! Let's not die of ennui in our camp

I would be very happy to see things moving quickly again - to see Turin's ascent or crashing defeat happen quickly, whichever it may be.

yeah quick turns would be nicer, though I must say that I´m often the one taking the longest time.
Dom2 Endgame simply doesn´t have the same appeal as the early game has. So I find myself continually delaying the turn until I feel like doing the micromanagement chores again.

I´d appreciate going back to 48 Quickhost.

So, at least 3 of us (me, Ygorl, Turin) are for going back to 48hr Quickhost. I think that Boron is trying to find a sub.

Jurri, Whollaborg, is 48hr QuickHost Ok with you?

If yes, then I guess we have to get in touch with Chris.

Cool with me, naturally. I'm a goner in a turn or two anyway.
