Default Re: Hosting a MP Game--Newb Questions

Ive seen blitz games run that way in the IRC channel (online chats). They start a game and run it was quick-turns (instant hosting when every player turns in a turn) and then after 6 or 7 hours of play they finally say "shutting down for the night, see you all tomorrow". To play, you would need to open another copy of Dom3 and connect to it.

Dont sweat the time frames. Im kindof out of touch with US daytime even though Im in California because I get up really early and go to bed early. On the other hand there are some people in other countries who are totally night-owls. Just pick a time frame and hold to it.
