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.

Server is down. I found no sub but it is not surprising.
So i will play the game till the end and try to be motivated.

I welcome a change back to 48h. With only a turn every 10 days i often almost forgot about the game. As jeffr said when a game crawls it is no fun.
Because the aim is not to do perfect moves but have fun.
If i need 3 months for 10 turns this is not fun imho.

A game should never be slower than 48h quickhost as maximum i think and VP should be set reasonable.
Because that's another problem. I am dead since 5-10 turns at least but the dying process in dominions is a very very slow one.

Whollaborg, is 48hr Quickhost Ok with you? Let me know, and I'll PM Chris to set it up. That's assuming Chris still checks this forum or his PM here

I know I've forgotten much of what this game is about, so I'm no longer trying to do anything close to perfect moves. I'm just basically pointing my guys in Turin's general direction.

Waiting on Boron and Turin, as we have for a while...

I'd suggest sending Whollaborg a message ingame to check the forum: he's done his turn yet hasn't commented the schedule, which would indicate that he might not be following this.
