Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)

[Calahan]

ooohh, always a risky one reducing the hosting deadline for any reason, even if it was only mistakenly increased for a short time.

I should be making it into work tomorrow before the deadline hits, so can I ask now what people's take is on me delaying the game at the last minute if necessary, should I see a bunch of players about to stale. According to the admin log, the game was only set for a Thursday hosting for 45 minutes, but that's still 45 minutes in which someone could have seen it and thought they had an extra day to submit their turn (as Chris rightly points out). And even though an email was sent out, if they've gone to bed, or just finished on the computer for the night (both very likely scenarios), then they won't know about the email until the morning, which will probably be too late.

So like I said, I could delay the game tomorrow at the last minute (although not a guarantee as traffic could delay my arrival in work) if I see players about to stale. But I won't do it unless I get a bit of 'all clear', as not everyone likes a 'pro-active' approach to helping players avoid staling. Although here I think it would be justified due to the temporary Thursday hosting situation. Currently 7 out of 12 turns outstanding, with just over ten and a half hours to hosting.

Would appreciate some thoughts on this overnight please
