Cool with me, naturally. I'm a goner in a turn or two anyway.

Server is down. I found no sub but it is not surprising.
So i will play the game till the end and try to be motivated.

I welcome a change back to 48h. With only a turn every 10 days i often almost forgot about the game. As jeffr said when a game crawls it is no fun.
Because the aim is not to do perfect moves but have fun.
If i need 3 months for 10 turns this is not fun imho.

A game should never be slower than 48h quickhost as maximum i think and VP should be set reasonable.
Because that's another problem. I am dead since 5-10 turns at least but the dying process in dominions is a very very slow one.

Whollaborg, is 48hr Quickhost Ok with you? Let me know, and I'll PM Chris to set it up. That's assuming Chris still checks this forum or his PM here

I know I've forgotten much of what this game is about, so I'm no longer trying to do anything close to perfect moves. I'm just basically pointing my guys in Turin's general direction.

Waiting on Boron and Turin, as we have for a while...

I'd suggest sending Whollaborg a message ingame to check the forum: he's done his turn yet hasn't commented the schedule, which would indicate that he might not be following this.

Now the server works for me again too. I will do my turn today evening, sorry for beeing the last again, now my study stress is already starting to fade away though so hopefully you don't have to wait for me as long in the future and i even cured my motivation crisis

Ten hours left, and three people still need to take turns. Incidentally, they're all at war. The little eastern game we've got going on isn't as demanding, I guess.
