Sorry ..

but this is hilarious. The time it need sin BB has nothing to do with real life. Please be serious, especially when you are an Official.

It´s not a bug it´s a feature.

Just say that you want it like it is ... ok. But don´t pretend, that this is reality. If this is reality in the states, then please adjust reality for germany, because we don´t need triple time for buildings.

Back to serious discussion. As stated by the thread opener i think it would be much better to have a more accurate duration. We are not saying it should be exact on a day, but pleaaaaase every change is better than what we have now.

Thx for your time

I do not understand the problem, of course it is a feature and all know that it maybe needs more time for buildings and because of that all can plan it... plan the double of the estimate time and you are in time!

In all it makes no sense to built seats for the next games, you need to plan for longer!

well, if you are from Germany, I think you must know I am right in my example for the Dutch-Belgian diversity. ;)

It ofcourse is just a silly example.

We actually truly don't want reality, otherwise , while we are building, a lot less people can come and watch, because it will not be possible to keep all seats open while changing the arena... ;)

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

actually to get myself rid of this headache is my getting a schedule that is only 6 days

i actually round it up, usually if your project reaches less than 300k you probably will get around 6 days plus delays its around 9-10 days max. the start building again because if you build 16 days worth it will probably be 25 days or more and your not getting your money worth as fast.

so do it lightly and when its done you sure can feel the upgrade already fast and continue to work on the next,

=================================================

honestly its crazy to say add more money to be fast i guess this is wrong, because the contractor who accepted the money know already he got to do it fast.

from what i know some contractors even wanted to keep giving overtime instead and do it fast than following the number of days schedule to finish.

its also funny at times we experience delay a lot but we dont experience a sudden advance in the work meaning if its 10 days there has to be days that it can suddenly go to 8 or 7 days just one day passing.

=================================================

what im thinking there are natural or things we cant control or shit happens at times, then we should have a sudden pop up on construction saying

while building suddenly hit a hidden pipe and for this the work is delay how many days , or a tornado hit the town and work is blah blah , the mayor of the town delcare it " no OT pay for 3 days " and work became fast

then you choose if you want to add more money or no to make it fast

but i know if the contractor break something he should shoulder it

=================================================
