little spelling thing - it's rationale, not rational. Rational is an adjective

Well you're certainly stirring things up in the main forum Memphus... 
Just saying though, be careful not to push it to far, there's no reason to get a team too angry in game over something like this...

Not the intention.
Intention is to keep the game moving. (This is why Pitboss was originally voted on over PBEM)
Because if the exception is made now, precedent it set.
While before we started I assumed my logic was sound the events today proved it was more so:
1. Kaz paused, and posted, I then unpaused. Kaz debated with us, but ultimately left the game as such.
2. Oyzar Paused but didn't post (and gave MS an extra hour). If Cav was so concerned about this they had the oppotunity to pause the game on thier turn (Husch has already posted his absence) but they didn't. Pausing now is simply a diplomatic act to try and woo MS to the Cav-Kaz Alliance.
3. DaveShack admitted he knew about the save this morning and could have logged in (to pause or to play) but it wasn't a high enough priority for him.
4. I posted numerous times that if anyone from MS even posted asking for a pause (on their turn) it would warrant a pause (although technically it is agaisn't the rules still and i personally wouldn't agree with it, I woudl acept it) With that no one from Ms posted. (and on top of it in DS's post he didn't ask for one himself either)

Yep, I'm not arguing, it's good that you're provoking a response, I'm just saying be careful of longterm impact.

Really...MS is dead. That's why I suggested repopulating from people from other boards...
The advantage, is that it would be a whole new team, so we would be starting from a fresh slate, and have a new chance to woo them to our side...

Cav, MS and Kaz have all taken 16 hours on the save. We hit a good pace recently, I think it's jsut come to and end, is all.

I am wondering - should we talk about allowing a team member to go to MS? If there is a time, it's now - there aren't any long-term wonder builds, MS isn't actively at war (or actively doing anything, as far as I can tell) - and we aren't in dire shape.
I'm not LOOKING to get rid of anyone, nor am I looking to leave - I'm just wondering if we should talk about seeing if anyone would be interested in doing so and seeing if we should allow it. And then, of course, we'd have to ask the other teams if they would allow it/are interested in it.
The problem with recruiting new people is that it's very likely that the people with the most expertise in MTDG are already in this one - anyone we can get from outside the demo game now is likely to not have much experience so may not be able to help all that much.

I breached the thought in the main forum earlier and they did not like that thought at all.
