I won't make it a chess thing or a certain someone will come along and own the entire world. We once had a chess club type thing here at EoFF and he was pretty much unbeatable.But yeah, I'm not going for a strategy thing as this world has to allow for fun, too, and I want to keep the main focus on developing the nations and the world rather than taking it over.
As for the time thing, yes, that's true, but if we made it a 24 hours thing then we'd be fine. Even an 18 hour thing would work, but I'd rather 24 hours. Personally, I don't want any wars at all unless the person is inactive and doesn't care to develop his nation, and that would be an effective way to 'get rid of them'.
