Sounds like a good idea! Although, as Hippo mentions, if we time out on this move it'll be unnecessary -.-

We decided our move on 14th January 0:13 GMT.
(0:12:36 according the chatroom).

The key issue is how much time you had in reserve when you decided; Omar can then restart the game with that much reserve, just in time for you to make the move.

You are absolutely correct. Even so, I can think of at least (519 + 173)/(519 - 173) reasons to give the relevant number directly rather than forcing readers to do a calculation.

I get 6 days, 1 hour, 35 minutes, and 21 seconds. Would anyone care to corroborate?

It's now 16th Jan 17:35 GMT, and the game is saying:
3d8h12m in reserve
16th Jan 17:35 minus 14th Jan 0:13 = 2 days, 17 hours and 22 minutes
3d8h12m plus 2d17h22m = 6 days, 1 hour and 34 minutes.
My crude approximation is almost exactly your figure, so I'd corroborate your result.
PS: The mob has 5d18h1m35s in reserve.

I just noticed Hippos message to me via the forum to interrupt the team game. Sorry I didn't see that earlier. It's better to send me a message through the Contact page or from the Message link on my gameroom profile.
But even if I had seen this earlier, there is no way to stop the clock. It is not possible to adjourn a game. We would just have to let it time out and I could resume the game then.
Do you still want to do this?

Greetings! I would like to join one of the teams when the game is restarted. From the earlier discussion in this thread I surmise that there has been an effort to balance the two teams in terms of (active) team members. Would it be opportune for me to join a particular team or is it pretty much inconsequential?

Of course the Mob will win no matter which team you join, so the primary question is whether you would like to be a winner or a loser.
Seriously, there has been so much trash talk, I am not sure if either team would admit to having the less vigorous discussion, and therefore being more in need of help. Should we call a trash-talk truce and honestly report how many posts/participants/votes each team had on, say, the last three moves before the game was suspended?

In the Gang we had very few active players, especially during the last few moves played. We're welcoming help!
