Should I declare the empire dead?
hmmm, I have no planets, no ships, and no population,.. hmmmm I think I am dead. so yes you can declare my empire dead.

I joined the game to have fun, and I did. It was not my intent to 'conquor the galaxy' but to see just how long I could Last without being 'agressive'. You might ask 'Why play the game if I had no intention of winning?' Well, For my first PBW with more than one opponent, I think I faired pretty well. After all 5 other empires fell before mine, so I'm not the worst, and now I can strive to be better in my next game.

One thing that was high on my priority list was to try my best to play my turns when I got my e-mail notification. (I didn't want to hinder the pace of the game.) I'm proud to say that on the posting-speed test I've been among the top three for the duration of my time in the game. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you all were slow, (RL can and does tend to affect the rate of play) I'm just saying that I managed to achieve one of my 'hidden' goals with this game.

I had lots of fun, and I learned a few things. Besides when this game ends and there are 19 loosers I'll be a part of the 'Majority' I like that.

Have a great day, Cheers!
