Would you be interested in people's average time to take their turns on their profile?

no this is silly because alot of people may miss a turn on purpose or have alot of games.. could cause some hate or something like that

Maybe this would be good for newbies...

Although their sample stats will be low therefore it will be less accurate!!

I do like the idea of having a bit in your profile that each member fills in with when they will be around...

i.e. Mine would be ... Mon - Fri 9AM-5PM GMT, Sat & Sun once or twice.

Yeah and most addicts would be 0500-2339 M-F & 0400 - 0335 S & S !!

I'm deliberately not stating the times when I'm at home... purely for the reason that I'm trying to cut down!!!

The missus informed me that I'm spending too much time on the PC whenever there's nothing to do... of course the problem is... I think there's nothing to do... She thinks there is lots of little chores to do... DOH!

most of the time i doubt there would be an accurate time stamp that would work, as alot of the times i sit and stare at a screen or discuss my options with a teammate/clanmate before i even hit start turn

also when playing more intense games with some of CC's more hardcore players, (you know who you are) i will check in on games quite frequently to see just how hard DBZ or aurtur smashed me this time, or what so and so did with thier turn and adjust my startagy accordingly.

So I fail to see how turn time limits could be registered












Should probably be in suggestions forum as well.

I think it would be a good thing to know. Certainly all of us have stretches where we can't make our moves in a timely manner 'cause of sleep and what not. However, I do think that it will all average out and you will be able to notice which people are inclined to check in often and make moves quickly more often than not.

Missed turns would just register as 24 hours as they are no more annoying to the other players than someone who takes 23.9 hours to make their move.

Again, we've all had times when we either missed turns or used up nearly our entire time, but overall, if you are typically on it, that will be reflected in your average time.

Sounds like a great idea. I'd like to see it.

Even if the average time is 10 hours, and even with sleeping messing up our CC lives, I think we would soon get an idea of who is prompt at taking their turns and for people who are addicts, they could all play together and not be held up by more casual players.
