Man, you guys work too hard at this game... some of those "timers" you mention aren't even necessary if you have a village with people on around the clock, but no, few people want to do that. Or they don't want to provide access to too many things for fear of the wrong person ripping off the village. (Yes, I realize it's for good reason. It's just too easy to fake credentials on the net, even more so in a game, so I'm in complete agreement. I'm just saying that because it IS one of the most annoying aspects of group play in MMOs in general.)
My point about the alarms: any of you played Travian or one of the other MMORTS games? They're fun for about as long as it takes to go insane from the complete lack of sleep you develop trying to time attacks and defense. The timers in this game are very easily managed (as long as the server doesn't go down and messes up the rhythm).
