I think there should be a place on the site for this, to have players donate their minutes!!

People put in there name and say "Hey man I need only 100 mins I swear just a 100. Got something really important to do!"

Then 5 people who has an extra 20 mins who won't need it (me for once since I leave to go to work :roll: ) can give there mins!!

That way no one has extra minutes and balance of mins are still there. Just helping out fellow Cantrians. :D

Oh, I forgot to add. This will work for any day. ;)

I didn't think I'd have to explain it, esicially seeing as the staff says it all the time, and you guys know alot more about computer machines then me, but then I suppose I will.


More minutes means more people online longer, which means more bandwith, which means more overhead cost. The money has to come from somewhere.


So, no thank you.

Um...that's why I said what I said. No extra minutes will be involved...

Just the same ones being recycled.

*sighs* How about we start with the minute recycling program by first reseting the minutes.

200 minutes a day is fine, I think being able to whore off extra minutes to anyone is bogus. You'll get multi accounts so someone can harvest a full day's worth of minutes. All we need is the normal resets, which I am sure will come soon enough.

Exactly. And if you guys just made less characters, say, maybe, an amount you can realistically handle, then you wouldn't need to worry. Personally, I have never run out of minutes.

I'm sure we'll all very happy for you, Schme.

But I suggest that you keep those kinds of opinions to yourself, as there is no need to air them.

Just ask yourself this question... if all those dedicated players who used up all their minutes quit, where would the game be? Every player is important - don't get up on your high horse when there is no need.

Man, if you don't have the time to play all your characters in two hours (in fact, more than two hours), than you probably don't have enough time to make your characters very well. And if you do, then great. But stop asking for more minutes, if that is the case.

They were asking for a reset.

The Cantr clock stopped yesterday for about 9 hours, which is why we missed that reset. It also meant that todays reset was going to be about 9 hours later than usual. We just had to wait for it. I don't think anyone did anything to make it happen, apart from yesterday when Jos fixed the clock.

That's my guess anyway *shrugs*

Minutes reset at Hour 0. Or at least that is my understanding.

So..... if hour 0 comes and there is no reset, I believe it means there is a problem.
