Default Re: The neutral challenge

I tried something similar a while back. I got bored with the game I was playing because I was too far ahead so I switched to the Last-place neutral. This was around 120 turns into the game. I played for a while and was fortunate enough to discover another neutral nearby. I destroyed their fleet and all of their planets in successive turns but they would not surrender even when reduced to their home planet only. I also could not get ANY other race to agree to ANY type of treaty. I E-mailed Malfador to see if this was a bug or why this happened but never heard back. Have any of the rest of you encountered this problem? Like most of you, I really liked the idea of starting from a significant disadvantage, and was disappointed that I was unfairly handicapped by not being able to make peace with anybody or get a surrender from a defeated foe.
