Unless you're REALLY slow, that might not be the best. You'll sometimes end up with people that will only play 1 turn per week, and the game will take over a year to finish. And since there's no time limit, if somebody decides to stop playing, the game just sits there in limbo for months since there's no way to boot anyone that's given up and stopped playing.

Best to just pick a reasonable setting based on how often you log in on average over the week.

It may not have been mentioned because this can only be used with people on your friends list, and your "friends" won't expel you from a timed game (if they really are friends). So it doesn't solve your problem when playing with strangers.

I think space base is kinda cool, but my problem is I have to take the time to learn the cards in the deck and stuff because its halfway a drafting game.

I a different need at the start and the end. To begin with it's irritating if people are slow (and especially so if they haven't turned their autoselects on and have no cubes they can use). Later, when everyone has cubes galore we all seem to need more time, especially when it's so hard to click on a cube on a phone.

Is it possible to have a siding scale of turn speed? 30s initially rising to 100s by endgame?
