quickhost?

[Dogboy]

Just double checking: if I click "quick host" in the host menu, without changing anything else, will host run as soon as (and only when) all turns are in?

Thanks!

Yes, that's the meaning of it. I always enable this through the command line switch -q

Thank you!

Keep in mind that one player going absent can kill a game like that. Its a good thing to always also include a time-out even if its way ahead of anything you think will ever occur.

Altho its worth mentioning also that this is one of the few things about a game that can be changed after a game has started. Many games change their time-out periods. They might start with a 24 hour one then as the game gets farther along they might decide that the turn managment deserves to go 48 hours or 72 hours.

Thank you, Gandalf. I appreciate the advice.
