And, since the Forum seems to serve little purpose, I'll use email to try and get my plea heard. So far, we've "enjoyed" two weekends of mostly waiting and not playing. So far, in weekdays it has not mattered whether we had a 36 hours turn schedule, or a 48 hours, or a 30 hours, for that matter. Or so it seemed. If anyone has separate online time (i.e office) and playing time (i.e home), the 36 hour schedule will sooner or later force him/her to skip. The math is so simple I don't think it needs to be explained again here. I've been under that Damocles' Sword since day one. So far, sheer timing luck has allowed me to keep going on. No more. Today I'll skip. Or else make such a botched rush of my turn that it won't matter, anyway. 45 minutes is the abyss I cannot jump. And the worst is, it will happen again, unless the damn schedule is changed. I'm only asking for 4 more hours, or even two. Is it that much now that things start to get interesting? Please speak your mind, comrades, since the overwhelming silence in the Forum so far has led me to believe nobody will notice if I continue playing or not. This galaxy is not fun anymore. Yours in any fair competition,

There have been 9 replies to the thread about gen times in the forum, with several possible solutions and 5 players voting in the poll. I'm posting this to the forum as well as thorugh this email, in the hope that more people will start visiting the forum and we can continue the discussion there.

Your first post in the forum seemed to me to suggest that you thought there should be no pause at weekends, but I now suspect I must have misunderstood the tone of the message.

If a slowdown from 36 hours to 38 hours will make a big difference to anyone then it's small enough a change to be fine by me.

Joe.
