Default Re: MP: Mon-Fri 12.00h UTC fixed scheduled host (game in progress)

I received a stale turn as well, but fortunately I didnt loose my prophet this time, since she is still dead... (Sorry for my bad humour, but I just returned from a fun fair and I am bit drunk... )

No, seriously, the same happened again as we had begun this game, were the first quick-host didnt skip the schedule as well, which caused some minor confsion. I also assume now that quick-hosting and fixed schedule is bugged somehow whenever the server is set up. However, it seemed to work well once everything was up and running!

Therefore: I recommend to let things as they are for now, but as soon as Norfleet has to touch the server again for whatever reason (or if they are any further natural stale turns) I would vote for disabling quick-hosting once and for all. Quick-hosting is nice as it might allow us some turns on some weekends (I will be available this weekend, btw.), but it is not essential!

This is just my view on the topic and I dont want to rule what we do. All I say is: As soon as there is another quirk, then disable quick-hosting - until then, watch what happens to the counter whenever you're the Last to submit your turn!!!

Other opinions?
