I know you're in the middle of a war, which makes turns take much longer, but if we do go through a period of peace and everyone has their turns in quickly I'd like to keep the game moving rather than wait for a fixed hosting time. Of course, if you send in your turn just a little before hosting time it will accomplish the same purpose without having to change the setting - but I understand it's easier if you can sometimes send it in earlier than that and not have it host immediately. If Saros and ghoul31 both agree to the change I'm willing to do it, otherwise I'd like to stick with the current setting.

I'd prefer to leave it on quickhost, nothing says you have to do the turn right after it hits your inbox and 30hrs should still be enough at this point of the game.
Is there a way to enforce a minimum hosting time less than the max? Something like 12hr minimum delay would be fine.

I don't think the server can do that, but I could replicate the effect by just not sending in my own turn until 24 hours had passed. That would limit us to 1 turn a day, as earcaraxe is requesting, while also allowing him to send in his turn whenever convenient.

you are very kind. No need to do that, most of the time i can send my turn in with enough delay, so do as u feel convenient.

I understand ur opinions, no problem for me if it remains on quickhost.

Haha I just had bogus show up. Sorry bogus you're a bit outclassed these days, thanks for the free items!

one month ago i was i n 5 different games, now in only two. having experienced that now is think quickhost is totally ok.

What a coward move by the greeks.

What an annoying turn.

My attempts to kill Arco's SC and thug both failed. The tart titan managed to escape after being down to 1 HP and the bane lord escaped because the AI brilliantly decided I didn't need to cast Storm as I'd scripted. I killed a golem but lost a fully equipped thug in the process.

Anyway, looks like everyone is back at war.

Btw Arco, you have an impressive number of SCs and I notice your tarts seem quite free of afflictions.

Saros · #10 November 29th, 2010, 10:05 PM

Its almost like magic! Actually the brilliantly named bane lord died as he retreated into hostile territory the useless bugger.
Dont worry I expected to be jumped and have sneaky plans in place for just this contingency. =D

Also Man we're cool right! I didnt really mean to attack my meanie tartarians made me do it. Apparently they are BFF's with some of ermors Thaumaturgs.
