To clarify, my observation was that Jarkko's request for extension should be granted and that we may want to make the extension permanent at THAT time. I'm OK wih the current hosting until then.

So, against.

I'm all in favor of granting any requests for extension. We're only on turn 2x of what will likely be a 7x or 100x game. I'd just rather get to mid game 30ish or so before we increase the timer.

I am btw also against increasing the hosting schedule in general at this point, but wanted to bring up my timing problem next week properly in advance However, considering that in a week we are already are at 30+ turns, perhaps the situation is differen by then.


EDIT: I am also btw fine with no extension for me. I may be able to get hooked to the internet from somewhere, and at worst I'll stale one turn only.

I'd rather have a faster schedule and grant any extensions needed. Against 48h for now.

i prefer 27 hrs with the odd extension. This game is still early enough that turns shouldn't take too long

YES, I'm going to be out of town regardless of what we decide on weekends.

If it gets too much I will just let the wolves gobble me up!!

I'd prefer you just grant extensions as needed. It's only turn 22, the game will take forever if the timer is increased so early.
