One thing worth noting about the grabbing changes as they stand.

We've made it EXTREMELY hard for someone to join this game half way thru a set and get enough power to make meaningful bot hits. Especially if they start on 0 turns (i dont know if late starts do tho).

If you aren't here at the beginning, the playability of the server drops dramatically which basically gives new players a week or so every 2 months to join our game and have similar playability.

Perhaps there's value in having some bots stop running turns and remain very low for fresh players to claw up facing the same types of bots as players who start day one? It doesnt seem like it should be harder for late starts or restarts.
