I'd like to ask to increase the hosting interval to 48 hours starting from the next week. The game begins to require much more time than at the early stages.
Please, tell your opinions. Thanks.

LOL! Ano, you're so selfish. You want all the provinces AND more time to take your turns. Good thing Jotunheim is around the corner

I don't want this game to slow down just yet with 48-hour hosting. Request a pause instead and I'll just switch off the timer. If there's enough people that want 48 hour hosting, I'll consider it.

I'm pretty happy with the 24hr hosting for another couple weeks I think

Actually that was the issue. If no one is with me, let it be so. And I don't think there is enough reason to call me selfish.

I was under impression that in this forum, casting battlefield enchantment and retreating mage to leave enchantment working and unstoppable is considered abusing a bug.

Thread's first post was edited, and I do not remember whether this rule was stated. I had it used against me, so, do we allow it? I will be upfront, if we allow it, I will use ANY bug I know of. Including mists of deception + wrathful sky, which is unbeatable, and forging without gems. I would like game stopped until I get answer, but it is up to host.

Forging without gems? I don't know that one. How do you do it (just out of curiosity)?

Yeah, do tell. I though this was was removed in Dominions II. I did see something about it on the AG forums, but my Russian is probably worse than that of someone named Nikolai :-)

Client hacking again?

Is someone abusing bugs? That is not allowed.

Please refer to the bug shortlist. I don't know what is forging without gems or something like that but when I call something a bug I refer to the link above. If the issue is in this list (or int the list in the bug discussion thread) then I consider it a bug. "Mists of deception - wrathful skies" bug you speak of is present there but just casting and retreating is not because it is not a bug, but WAD and I've read several discussions about this all of them saying the same. Battlefield enchantment ends _ONLY_ if the casting mage dies. If he retreats or teleports home, it stays in power until all the friendly units are dead. It is expected behavior, no matter you like it or not. And the bug with mists of deceptions _IS_ a bug, because that spell continues summoning units while another battlefield enchantment stays in power and these 2 enchantments support each other to an end and nothing can be done.
As for forging without gems it would be more honest of you not to threaten others with using it but to write about it to the corresponding thread..

Update: Hm, I recently found the issue in the shortlist. You are right and I am not. Really, I never thought it is considered a bug and didn't notice it before.

I admit I was mistaken and won't do it again. ...However, in this case i could just cast protection on the casting (expendable) mage and defend him with some units.
