Reply With QuoteI can't play my turn yet because I'm at work right now but I will be able to play it in another 5hrs.
Please, everybody check that you have played turn. I hope we won't need to restart the game again.

I noticed the game was paused.
So I logged in, unpaused the game, played my turn and paused the game back again... I'm guessing that was the plan?
Oh, and Good Luck to Everyone!

I got in but couldn't complete my turn because of the pause.
I even saw my local area.

Herc, Once you have logged in, you need to hit the Pause/Break key on your keyboard (located just right of the "Scroll Lock" key and above the "Page Up" key) FIRST before trying to make your moves. Just remember to hit the Pause/Break key again before you log out.

Waiting on

I think we could live with a 19hr clock, it equals approx 24hrs in real time, for the start.
Trev is an Aussie so will always be a bit out of sync but will still play OK.

Where can you change timer for the game in Pitboss admin dialog?
Played. I've left it unpaused, since I was the last player. I assume this is correct?
I think I think, therefore I might be. Paraphrased from Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914)
I thought Trev was last player, but I hope everyone got their civs & we can start playing.
It looks like everyone is accounted for....and the new turn is up!

I'm a bit rusty on that question since it has been some time since I last hosted a PitBoss game ... but I believe you just click on the timer and simply change it. But remember: it will not change the timer for the current turn, only the next turns after that.

I thought we were going to play a 36 hour turn clock?
I think I think, therefore I might be. Paraphrased from Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914)
I prefer the 36 hour timer which was mentioned earlier, occassionally due to interstate trips I am away for about 36 hours at a time. I was away for 24 hours on such a trip as the game was started. Generally I will move twice a day if possible, when I finish work and about 4 - 5 hours later if a move is available. Maybe occasionally in the morning before work as well, more moves on weekends will be possible.
36hr OK but when you have 1 Warrior running about it ain't that demanding to cut things down a bit. 19hrs is reasonable - there is something very wrong if you can't do 1 a day at this stage.

I agree with st jon. At this early stage with only 1 scout/ warrior ther is nothing to do and with the 36hr timer it will take forever before we have anything to do. So I say 19hrs or less for the first 50-100 turns would not be a bad idea.
Personally I have a job, and I play at the end of the working day. Last time I checked, that comes around every 24 hours.
(We aren't pausing the game now that everybody has played their 1st turn).
I think I think, therefore I might be. Paraphrased from Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914)
As I said before generally I can play every day, but for my work which is driving large trucks, I occasionally do some longer trips (nearly all local work) and then the extra time is handy. All trips in past 6 months have been less than 48 hours, so a 36 hour timer generally covers that. A 19 hour timer will not. As to the frequency of these trips, I had not done any for 4 months until this week, but can be up to 4 a month.
Sorry Trev, you were straight up with your difficulties at the beginning so I guess the bast we can do is just all play our Turns as soon as we can and keep things moving within the 36hrs as the clock will just flip anyway once everyone has moved.
