Very nice. Good work, Pandy. I didn`t go too far in... just the initial pages, but I really like it. The one suggestion I have...

On that page, where you have the server speeds and whatnot? It`s great that you have the times and whatnot, but what would be useful (something I myself always calculate, but it`s nice to have a reference to look at, especially for a new player) is to include exactly how much time it takes to hit max turns. That is probably the single most important thing that you can know on the turnbased servers... and even RT, to an extent. For example, without a paid I know that if I go away from the computer for 3 hours, I have another 20 minutes until I hit the turn limit on ultra. Twelve and a half hours for fast. The turn regeneration numbers tell you how fast a server is... but the time-till-max number tells you the frequency of a server. For me, that is a MUCH more important statistic, for obvious reasons... after all, people who only play one server choose it based on how active they have to be to compete. Slow, where you can go away for five days (as long as you have borders) and come back with almost max turns... or normal, where it`s 45 hours to hit max, just less than your DP time... *shrugs* I think you get my point. I`m a bit tired, so please excuse my somewhat random rambling here.
