Today marks week 2 of the two M-W-F turn frequency games (183, alpha-3rd cycle) so how do those players like the accelerated schedule? Do you like getting a new turn every two days without having to remember if a turn is due on Tuesday that week or the next one? Are you more involved in the game with this new schedule? Share any thoughts if M-W-F is your new preferred game style...

More involved definitely. It's already turn 6. And it's crazy. By far the best game I have played so far.

I prefer it so much I have actually considered dropping a couple of my once a week games. This game just flows much easier from turn to turn. I have not forgotten to do any artifact or scouts like I tend to do in the slow formats. Basically it allows me to come up with a multi turn plan and both remember it and execute it.

I really do like it, but I would have to carefully evaluate my schedule before committing to a game. Knowing it will be done in three months would be very helpful.
I don't get a chance to lose momentum like I do when there is a 6-day gap between turns. I have never really enjoyed that aspect of the normal schedule.

I am enjoying the rapid pace.

For me the rapid pace is good but I would have to drastically drop the number of games I'm in if I was in more than one.

I like it but would only want to play this version with no diplomacy.
