War vs. WoE - Not enough time to participate in both? [POLL] https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=32306.msg408149#msg408149

Now that War has started and many of you will be busy, I thought it would be a good idea to have this poll. It should be pretty self-explanatory.


Warning: we will not be blindly following the results of this poll. Numbers here will just be used as a loose guideline.

I normally have the time to manage 24 hours; actions don't take much of my time currently.  But there's no telling what will happen in the future both in real life and in the events themselves which is why the luxury of 48 hours would be nice.  I also have a team to think about, so 48 seems fair to me.

I feel 48 hours is a fair option - players that are dedicated to War (or have lots of RL schedule problems) don't have to worry about visiting WoE daily just to get their actions done. As will stated, there's no way to know what happens in the future, so the extra time doesn't hurt. (IMHO, WoE is more of a casual play while War requires a little more dedication).

Yeah, it's not about War so much as real life for me, but 48 hours would be better for planning.

Well, I'm not in War so my preference is easily 24 hours. WoE is much more enjoyable imo when the days happen regularly and often. There is almost always some big community event going on around here, so I don't think it's necessary to slow WoE down just for that. Many of those in War will still have time to submit actions. Those players that don't have time to spare can just return to a city and use work actions if nothing else. If someone really can't find a way to play normally in both War and WoE, why did they sign up for both?

24, not that I think it matters much since even 48 hours runs into delays most of the time thus far, but... :P
I happen to have plenty of time... for now. Not that I see how this is much from the "how long should a day last" poll, but oh well. I think it's more about how often you can post new days than anything else :)

This. I'm going on vacation this week. So for me personally 48 hour days would be better for now.

War and WoE are totally unrelated for me and I can easily keep both up on a 24-hour schedule. I agree with everything Youngsot stated that WoE is much more enjoyable when days pass by regularly and often.

While I'm not in War this time around, I feel for the people that are (and I prefer 48 hour rounds regardless.) :)
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

I voted 48 hrs. I would still prefer turbo mode but more people are obviously happier with this 48 hr system and those who prefer 24 hrs will just have to be patient, me included.
Ooh! Another text box!

Either 24 or 48 is fine with me. I voted 24, but 48 works just as well.

I like 48 due to possibly shifting schedules due to school work.
