LAYF, I have the sense that by having a turn on the weekend when some people might not be coming to the forums, you are in some sense increasing our food and water burn rate while we have inactive players. In other words, I don't mind spending food and water when players do something, but particularly on a weekend when they might not be ABLE to post, I think they should either go into a 1 turn non-food and water using coma if they don't post, or you should just not have a turn on the weekend.
It is bad enough if a player gets sick or busy during the week and can't post, thus burning a food and water, but weekends seem unreasonable to me. We have 12 or so players plus our worker plus the purp. That is almost designed for starvation. What is the limit on number of food and water units that can be attached to the farm machine? If the limit is 7 or lower, we have a problem, since we need more resources to build another farm machine, plus all of the time it takes to build things even if we had the resources. Even 14 or lower is a problem by the time you count food AND water.
I survived the forum move 4 times... yeah, I feel old.
