Anyway, attack Mari if you like. I'm planning on it.

Since I've seen Abysian forces attacking Marignon territory Last round, I have already put a few idle units that were in reach into action this turn. You wouldnt have thought that the Lord of Ice would watch the Forces of Fire wreak havoc in north without any response...? Its a shame though that my armies are still engaged elsewhere...

However, if Marignon wants to resume gameplay, I will respect the non-agression treaty that was once made again...

[JJ_Colorado]

Well, I've taken one Mari province and I got a stale turn Last turn so my advance is certainly no blitzkrieg so far.

(Edit: Post deleted in shame after the current turn...)

That certainly looks like a Blitzkrieg to me!

[JJ_Colorado]

Yeah, turn 2 of my invasion was much better than turn one. LOL.

Seriously, drop me an email at johnpruner at yahoo.com and we'll work out a border if you'd like.

No! Don't "work out a border" with evil monster-Caelum. Attack! Attack! Attack!

*cough*

Say, would anyone be opposed to us trying to go to a sane schedule? 48 or 72 hour hostings, instead of sometimes 24, sometimes 48, sometimes 72? Would've gotten a stale this turn if I hadn't gotten out of bed at midnight to check.

[Chazar]

I would be really happy with any slower schedule, provided that there is still no hosting on Sat/Sun required.

A few of us (including me) are also playing in "Glacier" on Mosehansen's, so it might be convenient to mimick the schedule, i.e. 96h-Quickhost-Only. Glacier seems to progress quite nicely despite of the slow schedule and 17 players being involved...

If this is rejected as being to slow, then I would like to keep the fixed-time hosting, i.e. swichting to something like MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, & FRIDAY, which would give a -48-48-72 rythm (instead of our current rythm -24-48-24-72).

I'll be happy to make any changes the players want, but as mentioned before, quickhost won't work if Marignon hasn't set themselves to AI. I haven't checked on that lately, so they might have.

Glacier really moves a bit too slow; 48/48/72 would seem far more preferable than 96; if it's tricky to set that up, a pure 72QH maybe? It shouldn't really matter if there's a hosting on Sat/Sun with that, because you could still take your turns on Friday and Monday.

If Abysia continues its current progress , Marignon wont see another turn, so quickhost is indeed an option, at most within three turns...
(@Abysia: Let me know if you need some aid to finish Marignon off... )

I dont see why 48-48-72 is tricky to set up? All that needs to be changed is disabling the scheduled hosts on Tuesday & Thursday and renabling the scheduled hosting Wednesday again as it once was...

I dont think I can manage a 72h QH: It is true that I can avoid playing on the weekend, but still it means an additional turn per week. I can hardly keep up to do the 4 turns per week with our current schedule. I really like to play this game, but I must also work on my PhD-thesis real hard, and in no way I can afford to play an additional turn per week, sorry! 96QH would be really beneficial to me and my thesis!
