Y'know, it'd be bloody nice to have a set turn schedule, since it's obvious that hosting isn't "every time I get all the 2h files." Feh.

Upstreamedge/Adam is doing a excellent job hosting, this game has zipped along.

However, I would like to 2nd Cainehill's request for a set 48hr turnaround, we are in mid game now and my turn takes over a hour or more to do correctly. Already I have sent in alot of 'rushed' turns.

cainehill, I am trying to stick to a 24 hour schedule, but the internet at my college is nightmarishly bad. I also have been in transit for a couple days because of the vacation.

I have just had a stale turn, my first one, not surprising since I never even got a chance to send in my orders...

I cannot keep playing at this kind of pace, so will after drop out of the game, even through I do not want too. :

I was not sent a reminder or any thing that my turn was due in...

I can continue to play in the game with a 48hr turnaround, if we stay at 24hr then I am going to keep missing turns, so I will switch Man to AI.

Maybe we should consider bumping it up to 48 hour so as not to lose players at this stage of the game. It's hard to do a straight 24 hour turnaround time doing PBEM, and I think most other games I am in complete a turn at way before the 48 hours expire.

I have a big technical problem (to resume I'll probably have to send back my unique pc for repair) and don't know if I will be able to play before a week or so. If I give no news in the following days host without me, sub me or turn me AI.

Machaka, probably the current game leader. His position is very, very powerful.

If he is 100% sure that he can not continue playing, I am sure someone would enjoy taking the position over.
