MOD EDIT: This thread has been merged from a couple threads that promote the idea of allowing players to vote to kick a player out of the game after a certain number of missed turns. This has been REJECTED. And no, it won't happen for new recruits only.
If you see any suggestions that should be merged here, please post here or inform a moderator. Thank you. --agentcom][/size]
I think that players should be able to vote to kick a deadbeat provided he's been inactive for at least two rounds. If it's a majority vote then the guy will be kicked the next round.

Paco, I already said the inactive thing. Plus the players going away for the weekend can just tell his other players about it.
I totally agree with Itrade. We're in a sequential game where one of the players hasnt even taken a turn yet. That means we all have to wait a full day every time its his turn which is getting ridiculous
I say after 4 rounds the game no longer waits for the deadbeat, and he accumulates no more armies.
Whether he surrenders or not is less important. On one hand it would make you keep on your toes, just in case he came back. On the other hand you might feel a bit cheated if a deadbeat came back unexpectedly and ruined your strategy.
I do feel that missing the first round should be an automatic surrender, however. If you can't show up for the first round, you're probably never going to, and it's just discourteous and painful to wait for someone who never shows up at all.
Also I think a deadbeat who never shows up for a game at all should have their maximum active games reduced by 1, to discourage them from doing it again. Keep on doing it, and you can't play anymore...
Lack, perhaps you should clear deadbeats now and now only then implement a "Kick after X deadbeat rounds" so we never have to deal with them again. Just go through people who haven't played in four days and delete their accounts. If they care about CC they'll just re-join. Then games will finish sooner and we can get more active and find bugs and try out new options and stuff.
My set is a bone coat-of-arms and chandelier! How cool is that?
The problem really is that some of you want a realtime game. If you want a faster game, perhaps games with shorter time limits for a turn for those with free time on their hands should be introduced.
How about just delete that person's account after 2 months (you can't realistically expect everyone who doesn't get on for 4 days to be a deadbeat) and to auto kick after 4 idle turns?

Well, the 4 idle turns auto kick is now in effect!
Let's give it some time and see what sort of difference it makes...
Hello , I'm new here but wouldn't it make sence to just end the game before you go away for a weekend? The 24 hour rule is decent but they should only get one 24 hour turn because from what i can tell one person could stall a game for sevral day's because that person could be a sore loser. I think voting should be considered as a option.My opinion may change when i figure out how to actully play the game.
i dont think someone should have to wait three days just for others to play
i just started dident relize i could play more than one game now i stuck waiting so the other players make up there mind
On average with me and my PALS a game of risk lasts at topps 3 hours not three days comon play the game
Let me make it clear, games on Conquer Club are supposed to last for days. It's very different from playing in realtime around the table. Both ways of playing have advantages, but with a little patience, you'll find that a-turn-a-day can be really fun too
im just ticked at myself for not realizing the rules compleatly befor i just jumped in to play now i have to sit and wait till you guys that play one turn a day to finish a game to play another
I like the Day-A-Turn thing because it gives more time to planning but at the same time if it's quick then you can depend on your enemies to make stupid mistakes that you can expliot.
Btw look at another topic put put about a "skip my turn" check box. I think it's a damn good diea that would help a lot in these "deadbeat" games.
