I wonder how much time people spend playing Cantr now. I'm almost past 500 minutes, LOL. XD

I have no life.

I don't think I've ever gone past 200 but I haven't been moving large piles of stuff, that's usually the most time consuming activity. Also not much is happening.

I used all 2000...finding those extra 9hrs 20mins in the day was hard, but so worth it!

I really like the time limit change.
There's no stress about logging out all the time to save minutes. Having to relog multiple times is really annoying for me. Since my work comp is really slow.

I have the impression that this change does not currently lead to a slower server and it also doesn't lead to more useless chatter. What do other people think?

It's been blazingly faster but I'm going to put that to the software upgrade. I've not seen the "downtime" screen once in two weeks and everything is lovely and fast. It seems most people spend less time playing now than they did before the change - true for me at least.

Real life is stressful enough, no need to make Cantr just as stressful. Please don't add the minute limit again.

that would be because of the long downtime, things will pick up slowly over the next... while, with a game like this , it can take a while for people to get back into it after a long break.

i for one often use 300 min a day, i think if we did have a limit again 400 would be fine, that's almost 6 hours right there lol
200 was too little and if we made it 500 or more, well whats the sense of a limit if you give that much :P
