...so my advance is certainly no blitzkrieg so far.

That certainly looks like a Blitzkrieg to me!

[JJ_Colorado]

Yeah, turn 2 of my invasion was much better than turn one. LOL.

Seriously, drop me an email at johnpruner at yahoo.com and we'll work out a border if you'd like.

No! Don't "work out a border" with evil monster-Caelum. Attack! Attack! Attack!

*cough*

Say, would anyone be opposed to us trying to go to a sane schedule? 48 or 72 hour hostings, instead of sometimes 24, sometimes 48, sometimes 72? Would've gotten a stale this turn if I hadn't gotten out of bed at midnight to check.

[Chazar]

I would be really happy with any slower schedule, provided that there is still no hosting on Sat/Sun required.

A few of us (including me) are also playing in "Glacier" on Mosehansen's, so it might be convenient to mimick the schedule, i.e. 96h-Quickhost-Only. Glacier seems to progress quite nicely despite of the slow schedule and 17 players being involved...

If this is rejected as being to slow, then I would like to keep the fixed-time hosting, i.e. swichting to something like MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, & FRIDAY, which would give a -48-48-72 rythm (instead of our current rythm -24-48-24-72).

I'll be happy to make any changes the players want, but as mentioned before, quickhost won't work if Marignon hasn't set themselves to AI. I haven't checked on that lately, so they might have.

If Abysia continues its current progress , Marignon wont see another turn, so quickhost is indeed an option, at most within three turns...
(@Abysia: Let me know if you need some aid to finish Marignon off... )

I dont see why 48-48-72 is tricky to set up? All that needs to be changed is disabling the scheduled hosts on Tuesday & Thursday and renabling the scheduled hosting Wednesday again as it once was...

I dont think I can manage a 72h QH: It is true that I can avoid playing on the weekend, but still it means an additional turn per week. I can hardly keep up to do the 4 turns per week with our current schedule. I really like to play this game, but I must also work on my PhD-thesis real hard, and in no way I can afford to play an additional turn per week, sorry! 96QH would be really beneficial to me and my thesis!

Glacier really moves a bit too slow; 48/48/72 would seem far more preferable than 96; if it's tricky to set that up, a pure 72QH maybe? It shouldn't really matter if there's a hosting on Sat/Sun with that, because you could still take your turns on Friday and Monday.

[Chazar]

Thanks! Besides, everyone knew that we where on 72hrs limit...

[Chazar]

Beware: the 72hrs schedule is still in place, and the game host within 3 hours, although R'yleh has not made its turn yet. I have asked Reverend Zombie to switch the game to QH only yesterday anyway!
