Re: Diplomacy
I do not think we are very far apart on this.
Kel says
"Really, as far as a dual win goes, unless someone tells you about it, you really don't even have a way of knowing whether they are going to fight it out when there are only two people left, anyway."
Except here - if you are expecting to play to the Last man and others are going to wimp out with a 3 way tie then you are disadvantaged throughout the game. What they do after you stop will have impacted on the way they behaved before. Someone else (Zapmeister?) made the same point earlier in the thread.
Alliances are supposed to be temporary in the game as there can be only one.
As you say it is not a problem in practice I will concede it is not worth discussing more
