That's why I said it would be more difficult to do in an online game.
But you know, when the day period lasts a full 24 hours, that's easily long enough to institute a non-participation rule. But since we are online, I suppose it might be okay to take
Morm's suggestion and give them one free pass.
But if they have two days in a single game where they do not make a reasonable contribution, I think it would be fine to kill them. Someone shouldn't enter themselves in a game if they're going to be on a trip or doing something that they think will keep them from playing. If you overcommit yourself, that's your own fault- you're going to get killed. That's just tough luck.
And before someone asks "What about in extreme circumstances?", I will answer and say that if someone has a heart attack, gets lost at sea, or loses a family member, I seriously doubt they'll care if they get penalized for non-participation in an internet game.
