Default Have your say - would you play on an extreme server?

By Extreme I mean a server with say a new day every four hours.

Of course nobody would play every game day (we expect people to occasionally sleep) but I thought it was worth seeing if there was any interest.

I have seen server with a new day every 1 hour! It just isn't to my play style to have that many game days so I agree it is for some but for me? no I wouldn't

The very first LotGD server I ever played on had a new day every 4 hours. It was kinda fun - of course I never got to play all 4 days, but at random times during the day I could log on and have a good chance of there beign a new day. Of course that server was the old basic kind - 1 town, no Heidi, and 10 turns per game day. So 4 game days kinda made up for that.

But then when you get 30 odd turns about 4 billion gold a DK or whatever stupidly high amount do you really NEED a new game day every hour or so? under normal rules maybe

Back to the topic?

(And to clarify on Rich's comment for the confused, Saucy's servers are quite balanced, except for when she is testing out new features. I believe he was referring to another server someone advertised on these forums.)

Wow Furion, I think I just got even more confused! We lost topic?

Could we have a little clarification and/or more detail from teh Wench on what an extreme server would entail to keep balance?

I suppose it means would you play on a server where you cannot hope to play all the turns that are available? lol. I haven't had much interest, so at the moment there won't be one run on GemDust.
