LT19 - timeout
Fri, 02/26/2010 - 08:06 — maho
2 players asked for changing timeout, so let's vox populi be vox dei ...
But please - keep half-long turn character of game :). So please don't write-in 24h or 30h. I will respect such result if it win, but .....
So, question is - what timeout you want in LT19 halflongturn game?

It seems that 12 hrs will
It seems that 12 hrs will win, but I want to mention that an exact timeout of 12 hrs may be unfair for some players. The turnchange will be static and will not cycle. Some players will have their turnchanges always at a nice hour like 08:00/20:00 or 10:00/22:00 localtime, others will be handicapped the whole game with 03:00/15:00 or 05:00/17:00.
So let's change 13h.
Otherwise it might really be difficult for some of us.
so why you both put 12hr in
so why you both put 12hr in some of your voteing decision?
I put "12 hrs" on the 2nd
I put "12 hrs" on the 2nd place because I prefer it over 14 or 18 hrs. Did I vote wrong?
I don't know why you put
I don't know why you put ONLY 18 in your voting. It's like you go to first turn of presidental voting, vote to your favourite (which fail) and don't go to second turn.
anything change in this case
anything change in this case when i put 18>16>14>12?
12 got another vote
no, in such case you vote to
no, in such case you vote to 18, in first turn it failed then you vote to 16, it failed in 2nd turn, then you vote to 14 and it has equal number of votes to 12, which means that it *might* win (I think random is used in such case).
So your way of voting (my candidate and only my candidate) gives win to option you dislike the most, instead of let the "lesser evil" win.
13 hrs means a 2 hrs shift
13 hrs means a 2 hrs shift per day. It doesn't need to be so fast. With 12:15 we'll get a full cycle in 48 turns (~24 days). I think, that's enough.
