Right now, the unknown time it will take to even start a turn is a big problem - we can wait for someone to log off but then someone else has probably logged in, and so on. And I also don't like having to rush turns... for me 30 minutes is about the lower limit of how quickly I can play a turn. Maybe one turn every two days stresses Parkin a little less too? 
Sounds like perfect timing for a long weekend vacation to Phoenix.
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.

And for my vacation next week (starting this Friday) when I'll be almost entirely without internet...so no Civ for me unless I turn my cellphone into a hotspot. And even then it may not work. So this 1 turn every 2+ days will make it so much easier on the Parkin. And on that note...this turn only has Q left to play. So I guess whoever is available first (Q or Parkin) can play that turn and get the ball rolling on the next one.

Three hours from now, or so. I should be available. I'm working from home today...and since my job is basically non-existant now, there's nothing for me to do but answer the one or two questions when they come my way..... ....oh the joys of being laid off, having your job transitioned to someone else in another state, and having your end date be the end of October.....I'll have basically another 3 months of doing almost no work. And only having to go into the office a couple times a week.
I have increased the timer to 40h in the Pitboss, which should equal out to somewhere between 44 and 48 hours in real time.
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"
