I can quite safely say that I'm not the only one who's fed up with every other player going into sleep mode every night just because they're too scared of losing their precious troops overnight. To put it bluntly, I'm sick of all the people in this game who have given up on chance (or simply relying on a good alliance).
So my suggestion is fairly simple:
Limit the number of times sleep mode can be used in a round. Do it by limiting the overall number of hours a player can be in sleep during the 76 days that the round lasts for.
Now I haven't thought of what that limit should be, but as is the nature of suggestions, it's open to floor for discussion. I just feel that this is the best way to keep sleep mode there for when it is really needed whilst detering people from using it all-round long just because they can't come up with a route setup to keep attakers away the old-fashioned way.
