Are we still using that "Hurstination Rule" where if folks do not give you an answer about an action they are bypassed after 2 days?
Just curious, mostly for when we have to make fast calls. It gets a little tougher when you have 2 people running a nation. I am not nessesarily saying that is grounds to extend the time. The race leader should make calls even if his padre is on vacation or something like that.
Anyways just curious how this is working this game?

Cool but after a certain point of waiting,.. maybe just roll them for the people and give out results ? Odds are they forgot how to log in LOL
Nice to know things are not stalled,.. Kudos Chief! Much better pace on turn 2 !

Well yes and no,..
Yes faster is good,.. but no,... I must run everything by my VP for authorization.
Yes even though he is VP I consider him an equal to myself as far as our naiton is concerned.
With the two day limit I am worried this will make it difficult for me to get his input when needed in a pinch call that I seek his advice or his final call on.
Hence my asking,.. and wondering if others are experiencing this, or being given more time to contact each other.
I may here be daring and propose a 3 day limit LOL Although that again would be a mid game rules change LOL

mid server rule change? DID I HEAR you propose one  . One must make decisions young grasshopper, or be left with no blades.  It is funny, from the guy who wants things always faster, he proposes a 3 day instead of 2  |

LOL Ya we must remember back what caused this issue.... I think it was Todd and Ken,.. when conquering the Klingons each had to talk with each other about the engagement/disengagement. Then though they also had to negotiate with nearby nations wondering what impact the decision would have. Then after hearing what those nations said they then had to talk again amongst themselves. That process would take more than a week and if something changed, then they had to start all over again. This was all to decided if they were going to make a single pursuit roll  |
