I commonly play the Extreme Goal on server K1/17. If I start a game on my own, I spend 2-4 hours building a rail network. Then if I pause my play and lose network connection while AFK, any single new player can reset. I lose my game progress, and the opportunity to return and finish the game. If !saveme counted as a "Don't reset" vote, it would take two players to trigger a reset. More of my started games could later be resumed to completion.
As it is, starting a new game by myself on a fresh K1 instance is a gamble since I can rarely devote 12 continuous hours to game-play. I run the risk of suffering a reset while not devoted to my computer screen.
Perhaps this is by design to best serve attentive players? Regardless I'm much more likely to wait to play until another player is active. Resets are very unlikely when more than one player has invested time into the current scenario. However, granting a "Don't reset" vote to VIP Members who use !saveme would be a very nice perk, while still allowing two or more players to affect a server reset if that VIP player is away. Just my opinion.
Anyway, thanks for listening and checking things out.
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line. Engines pumping and thumping in time. The green light flashes, the flags go up. Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup. They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank. Fuel burning fast on an empty tank. Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
