These are not lizard skin! They're faux-skin. PETA would've be have an uproar (well, more than normal).

Guys, looks like I will need a 12h extension.

Do what you want host.

(But more seriously, I try to let people what I am doing in the interests of being fair.)

Guys, Abysia and Arco have both staled three times in a row. I'll see if I can find out what the go is, but in the interim I am adding another 24h extension. Both seem potentially viable (although Abby's army looks like it got smashed last turn), so if they are not coming back then subs could be an option.

My understanding is Arco is giving up; The enemy is at the gates with bigger numbers and stronger creatures? No extensions, let the game-social darwinism do its job!

Yes, but thats NOT a reason for people allow turns to drag out.

If they want to quit just go AI. Instead they say nothing, do nothing and the turns drag.

Thanks very much for your kind consideration to your fellow gamers!

Lung Drago and Darlian, two more names to add to my "never play with again" file.

Well, I wouldnt say few hours delay - let us say less than 12H in this particular instance - is really dragging out a game yet. Few extra time is handy to reconsider your turns, for example. Me, for instance, I send several versions of turns over few days. Fast pace means poor tactics and administration.

HoleyDooley · #9 May 6th, 2012, 11:41 PM

Condoning such behaviour doesn't sit well with me either. I am guessing Darlian is your mate.

If you need extra time then say so. Using it as an excuse for an "I couldn't care less attitude" from others is a bit lame.

Mine? Nope, I dont recall him from previous encounters. Lung Drago I met in the last I Need More Power -game, not before that - nor after either. Otherwise the post is a bit confusing: I, on the otherhand, was trying to say, that with fast host interval (48 or less) the game doesnt get delayed that much from my point of view. The interfering delays start only after when admin starts postponing the host still without reactions from stalers. But this is only me...
