I think Spock confirmed a game speed increase at the Dev. Table. I was vehemently against this, but the more I think about it, the more I feel we need a speed increase.

if we raise game speed games needs to be shorter, fast games go dead faster

I think they should keep game length at 3 months. AND IF, it goes dead, we can end it early as we have done for games in the past. younever know when you will have a dynamite game and want it to last longer.

I dont think it would go dead, I think it would do just the opposite, new players *that i know anyways* are fristerated with the lack of turns they have. I think it would boost activity and the game woudl really be alot better.

We had fast games in the past, they have always died faster, don't see why it should be different now

They die fast but are a lot more fun for the first 3/4's of the game. Just need to find the right mix of speed and time.

Implemented - Game speeds are typically 1.5 now. With the options for slower or faster.
