Atm, with 3 days / “round” (and 500 turns) game would take 4 years without holidays etc., means 5+ years with.
For me no problem but let’s discuss if we should re-start with the other turn-order. Everybody should consider for himself, if the longer “best playing-times” would make the difference for her/him.
[The “critical” point - no matter wich order - is the small playing-window of Fatus. So the recommended times always aim to the goal to hit his “window” exactely, when it’s his turn.]
well if it’s possible to substitute players, it would be possible to rearange the order by using the substitution? And we dont have to sub everyone to rearange, only the “bottleneck”
I don’t know if that would work - and even if i change only one or two, nearly everybody else will switch 1 or 2 places… AND nearly everybody would have e new civilization.
For example - with Jobbys new playing times, known since this morning - i would prefer to put Jobby directly behind me, Mister T behind Adi and then Lambo behind pertrojbl so he needn’t make his turn in the one hour at his early morning. So turn order (and civiliuzation) would change for everybody but me - with a lot of work for PYDT admins.
But anyway the problem is: we restart now (or do anything else) and a few weeks later maybe another player decides also, that he has now completely new playing times.
So maybe we (including me) should accept, that we’ll play not 2-3 years but 5-6.
I think theres a feasible solution when only two players would have to switch. maybe some linear optimization or chat gpt would help be provided with the data
As you see, it’s still not done with one (or more) single exchange(s).
less than before, cause Jobby and Fatus and MrT800 and me have together one hour now.
Yeah I made a mistake. The best swap for regards of the times to play by time zones would be @petrojbl and @matt_lambert, then both -6 players would be grouped and no jumping from -6 to +8 to -6
No, think, that suggestion is a mistake now. then petrobjl would have only the first playing-hour of stezo to make his turn. just don’t lokk on +x and -y but on the playing times
