I just want to say this.

...But I feel as if Long Term Games can take over a year at times.
I don't think anybody's really that loyal to long term games.
Also, Point restrictions can be annoying.

I'm in two very long term games atm. One started in October (capped at 20) and one started in August (capped at 20).
It's not loyalty .... I'd just be really annoyed to lose now

If you play games with fixed or no cards (or a low cap) and a lot of players, than yes, they can take a loooong time.

If you play an increasing cards game and it the turn in gets over 200 or something like that, than inform a moderator and he will end the game in a draw - the game has probably stalemated and will never end unless someone suicides.
