Does this mean we have to wait 4 lots of our three day phases before our friend is automatically removed?
If i remember correctly, phase extensions are equal to the phase duration OR 24 hours, whichever is less. Still a lot of time, but 4 days, not 12 :-)

Jamie is correct. Please email us. We cannnot act without an email.

Your eliminated friend will not be able to take over the vacant position. Unless they gets permission from the leaving player to sit their account.

Question about players leaving mid game

by cbodds » Sat Apr 25, 2020 2:18 pm

We're playing a password protected private game, everyone is friends or friends of friends. One player has just had a family bereavement and has suddenly had to stop playing.

Is there anyway to have him removed from the game without having to bother him at a difficult time? One of our other players is about to be destroyed this coming turn and so could take over if this was possible?

We've set 4 excused missed turns because it was our first time playing and I didn't know how reliable everyone would be. Does this mean we have to wait 4 lots of our three day phases before our friend is automatically removed? Is there anyway to speed this up?

Thanks
