Does a PitBoss server use a time system based on the Sun or what ?

We gotta tell Firaxis they can use quartz !

kyrs...the timer is right but when we log in or do other in game functions its pauses the timer therefore it "looks" like its running slow.

I see... A weird way to implement a "timer", I'm afraid. It should have top priority over any feature ! Anyway, does the next turn start immediately when the last player logs out ? On the Civstats page, it seems it's always the case (and thus said player gets to play 2 turns in a row). If so, that means that we can speed up things a little...

yep when everyone played it starts the next turn. Some turns will go quick but expect during major wars for turns to last the full time.

Hey Robi...do you have any sheep resources. Everyone knows it makes you Aussies more comfortable to have a few good sheep around. Australia...where men are men and sheep are nervous.

/now thats taunting...rookies.

I prefer to taunt when i have something to back it up with, just like the turn before Partytown disappeared from the Alohan PBEM map

. Otherwise your just pissing in the breeze
