I think thats a really good idea. Also prevents you from NEEDING to be on right before deadline to ensure there isnt a quick decision to vote out whoever isnt on at deadline. That is exactly what happened in at least 3 TCs I was involved with. Probably more.

As long as it's a full 24 hours instead of 12 hours :p The quick decisions to vote out people still seemed to happen though, just before PMs were turned off.

In my experience speccing both games, both games "abused the deadline" basically in the same way.

yeah if we're talking about doing something that works also for working people/time zone fools, 12 hour deadlines are far far far far far worse seriously.

Frankly if TC communication is limited, I wouldn't mind 36 hours.

Medevac had very few last-minute changes in tcs. The only one I can think of was the round Abi got idoled out.

The issue with medevac was when the 12 hours cut. It fucked over the east coast hard, but I guess on 12 hours it's hard to be fair to everyone?

Also I think doing 18 hours pming 6 hours TC is a better balance.

East coast was fucked? As a West-Coaster who woke up at 9am and worked until 7pm EST, I felt you all got the better end of the time zone deal.

With deadlines set the way they were, it felt like I had 2-3 hours to TC.

Really it just needed to start earlier so that 8 hours of pm time wasn't over everyone sleeping

But there's a way to include all the players, even fools like drench. It's this hot new tech called 24 hour deadlines!

I'm still waiting for the Aussies to band together and run Australian Survivor, with everything timed for Australian prime times.

Coming soon from radja, vijarada and drench...inconvenience survivor. Actually, Aussie/EU deadlines would do a good job at stopping DL scrambling. All live challenges anyone?

Yeah in theory sure but in practice I'm horrifically irresponsible (I ran a mafia game into abandonment once in 2014 due to vc error), erratic in activity, and have no experience or skills with zetaboards. And Aussie so I can't even do stuff when it needs to be done.
