Thinking back over playing this game and my very real War Weariness. I used to race as quickly as possible to achieve some goal I had set for starting that war, there was a very definite waning of my enthusiasm once I had reached my goal and many times well before. Recently I backed off and...

Hello, I'm using a public computer for my internet access so I don't use the 'keep me logged in' option. This results in regular dropping of my login during a single session. Is there something I can do?
