That explains why he seems likely to stale in ten minutes.

In response to the in-game message - I'd be happy to see it go to 48QH now.

hmmm yah he should probably be set to AI. I'll wait till he's the Last player, and then I will have someone set him to AI, and check to make sure he wasn't pillaged Last turn

Keep in mind that the very first post describing the game and its hosting said :

Quote:
Hosting interval: will start out at 25 hours quickhost. at turn 30 i'll change it to two days QH. if that's too short come the late game, I could increase that to 3 days.
The game was supposed to go to 48QH already.

yah, the question isn't about whether this game will go over to 48 hr QH, but when; ie. whether to do it now, or wait a few more turns. Caine seems to really want it to go to 48 hrs, so I probably will do that then.

Probably a symptom of Too Many Games Syndrome. It can happen to anyone. You've been warned.

Oops - I think you should've waited to change to 48 QH until the _beginning_ of a turn; looks like it wipes / wiped out all the orders that had already been in, so people will need to take them again.

On the bright side - I think they can just connect to the game, select "Continue where I left" and have their orders uploaded intact. They might want to do something - rename a commander or whatnot - just to make sure their client knows there are changes to upload.
