If everything goes smoothly the regent of Pythium will be in place for only two months.
This current turn (10) or from next turn?

Doh! You're right - it should have been next turn. Ok, I'm not going to rollback the hosting time since that often doesn't end well. But I'll turn on quickhost again so once Marignon's turn arrives the game will host. Then I'll turn off quickhost until Ragnar returns.

Whoops. Sorry for holding things up. Once I saw that quickhost had already been turned off, I figured it wouldn't matter if I dragged my feet a bit while I waited to see if Abysia responded to my PM before I had to lock in my turn. If we agreed on something that changed my immediate plans, I'd have had to redo my turn, which would also entail re-writing potentially lengthy missives to Caelum, so I tried to wait before I finalized everything.

I'll have it submitted in a few minutes.

Completely understandable. And actually this is why I was tempted to just leave things as-is instead of fixing my error by temporarily restoring quickhost. Making a change and then undoing it is just asking for trouble. The worst case is postponing hosting and then reducing it. Between the time you postpone and then decrease the hosting time someone could check the server and think they have more time left than actually turns out to be the case.

Anyway, thanks for sending your turn so quickly!

So, quickhost is off again and for the next two turns we are on a fixed hosting time. The game will host 21:10 GMT on Friday and Sunday.
