Sorry, Memphus didn't understand part of the plan, so he left it to me to do when I got back from work...I'd have played this morning, but I was almost throwing up. We're sorry about the delay though.

Knowing Krill he felt better after he got a pint back in him smile

@Broker - Is the timer that off for this game? I was under the impression it wasn't running too far behind real-life.

We can always shorten it...

I don't mind either way, I think Memphus will agree with me (actually, he'll probably want it shortened).

And Sunrise would be right...but got smashed on Saturday, it was a 3 months delayed 21st and graduation party for my family and friends, and I'm working 12 hour shifts yesterday and today (in 7 hours...). I just got a little delayed by the MTDG...(players here might want to check up on that BTW...)

Everyone is clicking 'end turn' reliably so shortening the timer (eg to 12 hours) will not speed up the game's progress with the exception of a situation where someone is unable to log in because of real life issues (travel/work/etc) which has happened maybe twice(?) so far in 40 turns. If anything I'd be inclined to lengthen the turn period to 24 hours because I think I'd prefer having to wait an extra 6 or 12 hours once every 20 turns than forcing people to skip their go once every 20 turns.

Leave the timer. However, I have noticed that it has fallen significantly out of sync, and I do not know why.

just a heads up ... I will be traveling from NY to SYD, Aus leaving mid afternoon Aug 3rd NY time. TheArchDuke (my partner in crime) will not return from his vacation until Aug 5th. Can we please have a pause during this time?
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.
