Updated the hosting interval to 36 hours as the early game has come to an end. This also should give Fakey the time he needed to submit his next turn.

nozshand and anticipatient look like their going to stale soon. Anybody think I should do something about it?

This would be nozshand's second stale in a row.

Personally think it's always a good friendly jesture to delay a game at least 12hrs to avoid stales. Providing someone spots them in time of course (and even more convenient if the admin spots them )

Haven't noticed anticipatient around for a few days now. Maybe his broken laptop screen has given up completely and he can't get on the forums anymore until his replacement monitor arrives. No idea about Nozshand.

Eh, I've found that if they're gone for 3 turns they're not coming back. I'd suggest switching Nozshand to AI if he fails post an explanation or to turn in the next one in order to keep the game moving.

Did anyone stale after AoE?

If Nozshand did then my shout is that it's probably best to set him to AI, since his position isn't looking too hot so he may well have just bailed. If Anticipatient staled then I'd be inclined to PM him and give him a delay. Since he is/was a regular in many games until his recent computer 'accident', so most likely scenario is that he is still around, but just having trouble getting on-line.

Though all of this is just my random ramblings and opinion of course

Anticipatient submitted his turn a couple of hours later, making the delay worth some of the wait. Nozshand on the other hand staled again. I'm going to grant him a warning and see if he responds first. I'm sure you know first hand how bad his situation is.

I'm going to take a quick look around to see if someone is willing to play the faction before a resign it to AI status.

3 stales in a row for Arcoscephale and noz hasn't responded to my messages. If I can't find a sub in the next 24 hours then I'm going to set the faction to AI. I'm only willing to let nozshand keep his faction if he shows up real soon and pinkie swears to submit his turns. I'm not willing to travel.

I'll take over Arco if you haven't found someone yet.

I've said this already in the "sub needed" post but I'll say it again. Thank you very much. I've sent you a pm with instructions.

I'll delay the game until fungal can submit the latest turn.
