How many turns can you miss?

[Robinette]

Game 508, Mastercommander has missed 4 straight turns and is still alive.

So how many missed turns before a player is kicked?

I like that idea; if a player misses 3 turns in a row, kick them and make their territories neutral.

AWOL system is under development, so the answer is ∞.

Now that we are in Beta, there are more players, and sadly some that have joined and gone away...
So this makes these multi player games play out really slow...

For example, game 508 started July 23rd and is still in round 5...
mastercommander has not made a single move, and yet, the game waits 24 hours for him..
lol, if he comes back and gets all those deferred troops, he could actually win,,

anyway,,, just putting in my 2 cents to say that this is more and more needed as this becomes more known,
otherwise, it will become heavily weighted towards private games..

just sayin'

YAY For the new AWOL status. Am really hoping this works next time tfoote is up. 10 turns missed in a row.

Just saw "System: Changed status to AWOL" after someone missed 3 turns. Sounds good, but what does it mean?

Aha, awesome:

Skipping AWOL player...
Turn Ended

I will write a longer news posts but basically, players go AWOL and their turns are skipped. if you go AWOL can you can return to the game but you have to sit out one turn prior to returning.

Could the Wiki be updated for AWOL? I'm just starting a game with some new folks and find that I am not answering the question very well. I know what happens when someone goes AWOL and never comes back, but what does it look like when they do come back? When do they get their deferred units? For how many turns? When can they place them? Thanks.
