Same, would add T/L say 5-7 hrs, 2-3 day turn bank. CtB edit basically, 5K sectors.

Guess I should post my preferred game type since I asked:

Turn game of 25k+ and unlims that are started on a Saturday or Sunday and finished within a few hours.

Turn limit from 3000 to unlimited...but all games should have a time limit...so players can't sit on pdrop or photon watch 24/7...

Under 1500 turns for me. I have way too much Real Life (tm) to spend more time than that playing.

I so totally agree with this. Why do players insist on doing this? I say log in..do your turns, log out. That's the way it should be - and used to be.

Personally I want the other corp online when I invade or SD them. No fun in attacking a helpless player who is offline or blowing away their base without them being there to defend and maybe take me out instead.

<NOTE to self>

When Promethius logs online, quickly log off. He will not invade until I come online...

looks like the poll isn't working - invalid form submittal.



I found a free survey that allows 10 questions and 100 responses. www.surveymonkey.com

I did a test asking about prefered game settings and posted on the TW Facebook page. Only 17 people responded, and it was just a test, so some of the answers are silly, but it worked very nicely.

Just a thought...
