Personally, I think we should just let it roll. I get why we stopped this time, but with this many players, we have to let it roll, i think.

We have to wait this time due to Easter. We need to enforce the "ask for pause" rule after the Easter weekend ends

Yeah, at this point, we've already used up the whole weekend waiting. No point now in not waiting, so we may as well continue to wait until tomorrow when Azza hopefully returns. If he's not back by partway through tomorrow, or we haven't at least heard from him, then I would say let it roll.

Sorry, I thought I'd said I was away over Easter and that I'd need a pause. Ran out of time on Friday morning.

New turn is up.

Heading to work now...I'll cover Cyne/TBS this evening if no other kind lurker soul can do so, both have left good instructions in their thread.

Our host has now 18 minutes left for playing. I guess we really need to finally decide (or let our Commo-admin decide it for us) how we handle these situations. Always pausing and never pausing are both better options than having to discuss this every time again :P

Pause it and create a nonanonymous poll. Leave it for two days. The result will be our policy going forward.

My two cents.
I have to run.

Paused it, but I was too lazy for a poll :P

Dialed up Caledorn in the chat. In general it could be good idea to poke last people that haven't played when there is couple of hours left in the turn. He said:
Quote:You can just let the turn roll. I don't want to hold the game up because I forgot it. I won't be able to play for at least 2 hours

Nevertheless I would keep it paused. Couple of hours is not significant to anyone.

Concerning pauses, I suggest procedures like this:

Pause requested - Shorter than 24h should always be ok. More than 24h case-by-case analysis needed.

Not requested - Pause could be done by other players when there is less than 30 mins in the clock and resumed when ~12h after the pause has passed. Pause is not automatic, if no one is around and capable then the turn rolls and there won't be reload because of missing the turn. If there would be 2nd turn without the player activity, game would be paused undetermined time until the situation is somehow sorted out.
