Nukie adjustments (Nuke timer; Plant location)

[DioChasek]

In my experience with Nukie rounds, usually you have a pretty good idea whether or not you are going to defend/defuse the nuke around the 6 minute mark. Either the crew as a whole has not gotten off their rears and the nukies are stomping everything, or its down to one or two remaining on the nukie team. A 9 minute timer likely would make things a bit more in favor of nukies who are holding on for dear life by minute 7.
The 4 minute disk version though boy that's a different chestnut entirely, good luck having any kind of organized response with 3 minutes to effectively work.
