"Greatturns" vs "Longturns"
Posted: Sat May 12, 2018 9:52 am
Two questions for everyone (one an historical question arising from my newness to the community):
1. What exactly were "greatturn" games?
2. For the purposes of establishing semantic clarity between Freeciv-Web and Longturn.org, would it be useful to reintroduce the terminology of "greatturns" for the former and the latter can retain the terminology of "longturns"?
From what I can see, greatturn games were established in 2013 but seem conceptually the same as longturn games, apparently introduced by Polish players in 2003.
Maybe reintroducing the terminology of greatturns for Freeciv-Web is not a useful idea, but I would be curious to hear the community's thoughts about this anyway.
Thanks!
