Sorry for the slow play, but just playing once a day as my instructions get thinner the later it goes.

I will be traveling to Los Angeles for Memorial Day weekend.  I don't anticipate holding up the game, but surprise travel problems happen.

I hope you can play civ sitting in traffic.

I'm back. Just need a little time to update my sims and stuff, and I should be able to play at the usual pace.

I am bit confused with CivStats and hopefully somebody can help me get this right. So I took this screenshot:

• The turn begun at 10:57 pm
  
• As you can see it says the current time is 2:16 am which is around 3 hours after the turn begun
  
• I checked at CivStat this morning and the turn begun sometime around 8 am my time. Now I'm at 11 am, which is also 3 hours appart.
  

1. Here my confusion begins. The turn timer shows that the new turn begins at 9:17 pm. How can this be if this turn begun at 10:57 pm?
   
2. And second. The timer shows that 19 hours are left for this turn, so 5 hours are already gone. But this turn just begun 3 hours ago. With a 24 hour turn, how can this be?

Turn timer runs slower than real time (someone more familiar with pitboss mechanics will have to explain why), so the turn timer is usually adjusted to approximately match 24 hours in real time. In early game it's normally set to 22 hours

There should be plenty of wifi on the 405.

Ah good to know, that it's correct. That helps me with planning in the future. Thanks.
