I've not missed a turn in ages and I don't plan to. I don't believe there's really any reason to quit until there are real problems, more than just a week's delay.

Well, OK, if you like. I thought Aristander said he was bowing out though. I don't think I can take an AI Ermor on my border. I'm quite willing to keep playing... actually having a lot of fun. But both Ermor and Ashdod staled this turn, and it will take quite a while for just us 3 to finish the game.

I'll go ahead and set a long host on this turn, so everyone that wants to do so can get a turn in.

I have sent a message to Aristander, asking if he would be willing to remain playing if I set the game to 96 hour. If he agrees, we can continue the game, on a 96 hour host. If not, we can still continue the game, but I will be busy killing Ermor. Ok with you guys?

I'm generally the sort who's in a game for the long haul, I'm not perturbed over delays and don't lose interest easy, unless I'm bored.

96, 120, makes no difference to me. Though, I'm afraid we'd probably have an issue with standing by while you gobble up Ermor for yourself, if that should come to pass.

Well, we could try to find a sub for him, though I'm a bit doubtful we would be successful. Aristander has so far not responded to me.

I guess, if he just left Ermor to stale away, I could promise not to attack him, and we could just kind of ignore that nation.

OR... I could have someone set Ermor to AI. That would be kind of rough on me, but it would keep me busy, certainly.

Sorry everyone but between Holy Week and Work this is the first chance I have had to send a message. I should have asked for a delay. I am willing to continue especially if we increase hosting delay. I will try submit my turns in a timely manner.

Thanks

I'm glad you decided to continue Aristander. On the conclusion of this turn, I will set the host to 96 hour. Hopefully that will be good for all of us. Of course, the game will take like another year to complete, but what else do we have to do in our downtime

I'm back up. Should have my turn in before the game hosts.

Damn. R'lyeh is a tough AI. They just kicked my butt. Better put some thought into this turn.

Hmm. I actually set that 96 hour for Aristander. No need to take advantage of it Sept.
