Country change time limit...

There should be two different time limits for each orange and blue arenas.

Why?

Now if you said keep a small map in one arena and a large map in the other, I would have agreed with you.

Larry,

I may with you but you need to explain your reasoning.

What I'm saying is when I change countries in orange then go to blue I shouldn't have to wait to change countries in that arena.


Earlier tonight I log on to orange as a rook. I don't see any fights going on so I go bish. Once there all I see is a horde of friendly attacking a base. So I go check out the blue arena. In there I find the numbers B-27, K-10, R-26. Both bish and rook have ENYs at 24. I see a few nit bases flashing so I type .country 2 and get "You can not change countries for another 47 minutes."

Makes sense to me, that should be changed.

I agree , it's counter productive to have the time limit from one arena stand in the other.  :aok

That is a good idea!

More often than not, you'll join the low numbered team in one arena and when you move to the other they have the most numbers. I guess it is the lemmings following the path of least resistance...

We were just griping about this twenty minutes ago. Would like to see it done.

Makes perfect sense to me. I've often been caught on the high country when it gets dark in my original arena and I switch to the other. I'd rather just be able to switch arenas then to the low country immediately.

I say increase the time limit per Arena.

I agree with the original idea.  I for one switch sides to fly with people I know.  If, say, Xtrepid signs off 15min after I switch, I will switch arenas and fly with (+) on knight; however I am stuck rook for 45mins.

BARF.  Horrible idea for all the reasons stated in the other thread.  Don't hijack someones unrelated thread.
