I wasn't suggesting AI... More thinking of a sub or replacement. I know Huntsman's got some tough stuff going on in the real world, so it's not too surprising that he hasn't been taking his turns; I don't know if or when he'll have more leisure time to play. I think, though, if he misses the next couple turns we should start looking for someone to take over (and preferably someone who'd be willing to give the reins back to Huntsman if he is able to come back at some point).
I'd hate to see the game become "sit around doing nothing until someone drops out, then scramble to take their lands". I know this is a bit contrary to a proposition I put forth a while back, but, well... I'm wiser now.
