Thanks Gandalf.

I would also like to go back to 48 hour to try and get this game finished before the New Year.

Unless lebarjack is kidding(and he must be as there is no way we would go to a 96 hour host lol), then i do not see any objections.

Since velusion said the game would move to a 72 hour host in the endgame phase, however, I do think if there is a single objection we have to remain at 72. It is not a democracy-we have to go by the rules as set forth originally unless all the players left agree to amend them.

But I would like a clarification from lebarjack before we return to 48 to make sure he agrees.

I really wish we stay at least to a 72 hours schedule. I might be able to play every 48 hours, sometimes... I'm playing in 4 games which have all reached endgame and that take me a lot of time. Plus, I have regularly other things to do (work, sleep, eat )

72 Hours it is then. Oh well. I guess we will finish it someday, or just give up.

My advice is to limit yourself to no more than 2 mp games. 4 is way too many. You should really find a sub for at least one for your own sanity.

Four games, all in the endgame, cannot be much fun. And dominions is a game, and games should be fun. Regrettably, endgames tend to be work at times. And 4 endgames is going to sap your drive to play dominions.

At one time I had a 3 mp limit, but then i hit a point where i had 3 in the endgame phase, and swore never again to play 3 at one time.
