I've got folders full of the different patterns. Thank god for hut finder. It saves a ton of time, and is easier to use after a few beers

	Suffering from ads?

During a duel last night, I informally kept track of the number of times I used it over the course of the evening. It added no more than 2 minutes over the course of the game for me. I don't think it makes much difference. We played for about 4 hours.

Tonight over about 6 hours of game it probably didn't take longer that 3 minutes. I don't really see this slowing down the game much.

I would agree... it probably was faster for me tonight, because I barely looked at it. Graph paper would have taken much longer

Is he talking about hutfinder or the new settler thing?

I was talking about the settlers, I think ming was talking about hutfinder.

It looks like Ming thought you were talking about the hutfinder as well.

Seriously I can't see how the settler (or hutfinder for that matter ) thing would add very much time to turns, and allowing it would be more consistent with your other rules IMO.

Yeah... I had a senior moment and thought it was about hut finder again... sigh...

But I do see the settler thing adding time... having to both release them, and then set them on their task again the next turn... every little bit hurts.

How many times did you use it last night?

Since I was using settlers in pairs already, I didn't even use it that much. Maybe a dozen times. Shorter than you delivering a few caravans.

Well... last night didn't go long, so not a lot of improvements. But I did try it when building a road through a mountain square. (I've never done it before, but wanted to see it)...

How do you want to forbid it?
If you forbid it then Settler preworking must be forbidden too. So a Settler in danger with cumulated work can't flee?

	Tired of ads?

That's how I'm considering it. As posted in another thread, some people click them free every turn so the can flee if surprised by barbs or other civs. And we did get to invention so it wasn't that short of a game.

Looking at his location, his timezome will be a problem for us. The Euros are probably more likely to be able to include him.
