I'd love this. Most of the 15 people I recruited all quit because they felt the turns were too slow. :|
Most strategy war games I've played have turns every hour on the hour, while others have between 3-6 turns a day. This is by far the slowest strategy-war game I've ever played, individual turns baring a much higher load of responsibility and stopping power than most.
I'd be quite interested in a faster continent, even if its experimentally tiny in order to reduce server load. An experimental continent just to see if the idea picks up. I know my friends at least would be interested in it. Once I get my website back up I could muster up an additional 50-100 players in the coming months. Then again it doesn't depend on me - it depends on the community's will to play and even more-so on Tom's ability to support an extra server in all the manners such an addition would entail. Server load, attention, coding, so on and so forth.
That reminds me, I just dumped $150 on LOTRO, I might as well donate to BM again. This community is awesome and absolutely makes me love this game - despite certain pissy characters. :-P Its alright though, the RP wouldn't be the same without Crazy queens, mad-kings, overzealous priests, anti-religious crusaders, and all manner of insanity so becoming of Dwilight. <3
