I suppose I could automate whether all games get put on hold or not, by having the startup script check how long SAH has been frozen when I run it

....

Anyway, while currently an inconvenience for game hosts, they can restore a previous turn if needed.



That looks like a great idea, as it would make things somewhat more predictable than currently. Cool

Another important case to take into account would be when a game should have genned while AH was frozen. Confused

Sadly, not all hosts can be bothered to restore/regen in the event of AH freezing/not holding, so having some reliable safeguard is even more important. Whip
