    Normal. It will already last more than a year at that speed. Epic and marathon are too long.

            I think I'd rather play Epic.

            How long would an Epic game last Rhothaerill???

              Can someone (Keygen) clarify how this poll is going to work??

              Is it the majority wins, or an average, or a run off etc etc etc.....

              Cheers

                I voted Epic - and again - if there is a tie, then surely a second poll with just the tied options available?
                I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

                    3.6 years if our calculations are correct (48 hour turn time). This might be too long...

                      Why not, this will be really speedy compared to the PBEM demo games we are all in.

                      By the time we get round to finishing them we will al have CPU's implanted in the back of our heads and will be playing Civ in virtual reality..........

                      Now there's a thought!!!!

                        Well, the 48 hours would be the max a turn could go (in theory, in practice it would probably be closer to 52+ hours each turn), and whenever all players play their turns the game would end early.

                        Is the 48 hour clock set? Having played in a similar pitboss game before I don't recall instances when any team ever needed more than one day to play their moves.

                        48 hours is a LONG time between turns while 24 whould probably suit everyone okay.

                          All polls are to indicate the trend. If things are clear no further discussion is needed but if are not then we might consider running a new poll.

                          The way I see it the current result is pretty straightforward
