There is no reason for you to withdraw.

While Lanka was a member of la atlantis alliance, there can be no expectation that subs also remain in an alliance with other people.

Actually the purpose of a sub is to play the race to the best of his ability as he sees fit. In other words, to play the race in a manner that best benefits that race-not someone else."

And here is my response to that. Now if you determine it is in Lanka's best interest to continue the war-that is fine by me. I told you that in my 1st message. Heck, does K even think that continuing the war with Ctis is in Lanka's best interest?

Even original players bail out on alliances at times-only one player can win. By his own admission, Dr. P likes dishonesty in diplomacy, so should his allies be surprised one day when the knife slides home?

Why should a sub be held to a higher standard than the original player?

I also strongly suspect LA Atlantis is quitting over something he does not like in game. But I think it sends the wrong signal to give in to his threat of taking his ball and going home. The fact is-he was never going to win this game anyway. I was not going to let him.
