Turnchats Part II Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Another poll prelude. Options for how often turnchats occur. I would be in favour of once every three days or twice a week, to allow time for discussion, analysis and voting.

Once a week.

Any more often and the game will go too fast.

Don't try and change stuff that's been shown to work.

I'm not trying to change anything. I'm getting the impression that you think this game is some sort of sequel to the Civ2 Democracy game. It is not, and these things need to be decided. We are starting with clean slate. Of course we may borrow things from other games, but if a majority want to do it daily, for example, then that's the way things go.

It IS a sequel to the Civ2 Demo Game. The Civ2 Demo Game was created to a) have fun and b) test the waters. Don't try and reinvent the wheel.

IT is not a sequel. It is a new game with new rules. There is no reason to just automatically take the rules of Civ2 demogame. Many of us, if not most, never played that game and may not want the same rules.
Don't re-invent the wheel? I could just as easily argue that we should adopt all the CFC rules, as it's more relevant, having been a Civ3 game.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I'd say twice a week. People in some timezones may not be able to make it to a turnchat if it is only once a week.

Yes, definetly twice a week and at different times.

This so that if someone isn't available at the time when one is held he/she can attend the other.

Maybe time cap of say 4-8 hours in the chats would be nice, ie. Tuesday @ 23 GMT and thursday 18 GMT...

Unlike my nobal competitor, atawa, I agree with my comrades that twice a week would be best. (shameless stab at atawa )

Yea, but no, seriously, You wouldn't have to go to both meets, but if something comes up and you can't make it, you will have a second chance. And also like Azreal stated, it will give everyone a chance to participate.

For those who haven't yet voted, go to the Turnchat Poll Thread to vote on whether to have them or not. If the final vote is yes, then I will make another one asking how often.
