  • Turn rates and pitboss

    With turn rates going abysmal I suggest giving pitboss a try.

    I'm following the warlords dg, with 48h per turn it goes 3-4 our speed.

    Snoopy said he'd try to set it up for us if more ppl would like to give a try.

    What do you think?

    Strictly speaking I said it was probably impossible, but I'd give it a test if enough people wanted it I'm fairly sure it's not possible though, unless something changed in the 1.74 patch.

      Well testing doesn't hurt does it?

              Thanks safa and snoop! Best laugh I have had in awhile.

              As to the pitboss question - would be interesting to see. I firmly believe pitboss is the way to go. There is the matter of the potential double move, but from what I can see, that is the only downside. With lots of upside - speed being the obvious.

                It's possible to set up pitboss without simultaneous moves. Just as an autoenforcer of the turn timer...

                Just sayin. Course, there's something to say about KNOWING you're going to have a turn to play every 48 hours. It's pretty easy to schedule yourself to be available once every 48 hours. A lot of the problem I've personally had with playing saves is I never KNOW when we'll get it to begin with.

                    Yeah, even without sim moves pitboss should be better!

                      If it is possible - then it would be much better!
                      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.

                          Shouldn't snoopy test it, then if it's possible we put it to a team lead vote?

                            It looks like theres enough support for it to be tested, if possible snoopy?
