It's Easter, one of the three times of the year that a lot of players will be busy along with Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Pitboss 18 IT and Tech Issues Thread

So we'll probably be looking at a weekend long pause? Since that's not going to happen so often I don't think it would be too disruptive.
I'm just doing my best out here.
Perth? If so ... then it is currently 5am Sunday morning there.
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.

I understand the desire to pause over a holiday weekend, but did Azza request or mention a pause? Wouldn't it make the most sense to let this turn roll since he is the only one who has not played. Then if needed, we can pause the next turn. Pausing with only one player who has not played effectually extends the pause by a whole turn.

Didn't even know you guys did that adventure sort of thing from custom scenarios. Yeah, yeah...I don't really browse the threads much. Just specific PB ones when I get pulled into a game once in awhile. :P (April 20th, 2014, 08:04)dazedroyalty Wrote: I understand the desire to pause over a holiday weekend, but did Azza request or mention a pause?

This is what I could find, from the PB17 tech thread: (April 16th, 2014, 06:51)Azza Wrote: I'm away over the Easter weekend myself. Am I being unreasonable in thinking that a player could just plan in advance for being away at this very early stage in the game? A lurker could surely move a worker or two, as well as a scout, without requiring everyone else to wait until after the holiday. I would appreciate some feedback from everyone here. I either want to know if I should realign my expectations or if we should all be more accommodating to each other by playing turns based on the timer and to only pause in the rare circumstance where an absence cannot be helped and is unforeseen (illness, emergency, etc). Obviously later on when we have war turns and more complicated, unanticipated in-game decisions we may be more reluctant to have lurkers running things in our absence, and that is fine. But we are certainly not there yet. Let's come to a consensus. Please weigh in if you are playing. |
