Ummm.... 72 would be 2 1/3 turns a week, less than the current 4.

Okay, this math hurts.

You all figure this out, delegate a spokesman, and have them post here what the FINAL, DEFINITIVE, hosting schedule ought to be, and I will MAKE IT SO.

Please make clear when you are posting that you are the SPOKESMAN and that the schedule is FINAL and DEFINITIVE, else I'll ignore the post as merely another entry in the running debate.

Okay, okay, 72QH is fine with me. However we still need to wait until Marignon is defeated. What about our other players? Everbody ok with that schedule change?

@Reverend Zombie: I did not expect you to watch this thread since TienChi was defeated, so sorry if this discussion is annoying you. It might be more convenient for you if we will send you a private message via the Boards messaging facility once we've decided to alter the schedule. Is that ok for you?

As asked :- I like that this is fixed host so would rather stick with that (although it has confused me in the past)

I would not object to QH though if everyone else wants it.

I'd go for 72h quickhost.

Marignon is conquered as far as I know. I can't see any Mari provinces or troops left. I'm not sure why the Mari global is still up, a bug I guess??

There had already been a message that the Pretender of Marignon had been defeated two turns ago, and one could also confirm this with the nation info screen. (Can somebody check this? I cant right now.) I guess the continued global is still due to the old bug.


So regarding the schedule, the votes seem to be:

72h QH : Cainehill, JJ_Colorado
Fixed Mo,We,Fr: Pickles, Chazar
Indifferent : Kel, Mark the Merciful

So its a tie, but since both Pickles and myself have admitted that we would not object to 72h QH to prevent a deadlock, we're decided on that now.

I thus send a message to Reverend Zombie to alter the schedule, but I have another problem: Unexpectedly I need to go to a workshop on Mon-Thu next week, and with the bad experiences from another workshop a few weeks ago, I severely doubt that I might connect to the internet again. I already bought myself a phone-plug adaptor for the UK though, so I will try to connect at least. I can make my Last turn on Sunday ~07.00UTC and again on Friday, so it would be nice if somone would volunteer to submit his turn as late as posssible before the deadline (on Wednesday morning with the new schedule). Anyone? Otherwise I beg my enemies not to take the opportunity that my stale turn might offer them...

I've uploaded my turn yesterday evening without problems, but I cant try right now since I am at work...

Send a PM to Reverend Zombie! Maybe he can stop the server...
