That's quite an assumption. Any number of reasons why (but only a few of them good). Best to let Niefel explain.

That's completely correct, however, staling for 4 turns kind of takes the wind out of the sails of the defense of one's nation.
As to the staling for 4 turns with no mention, this sort of behavior should really not be acceptable. Outside of death (one's own or family) there's never a reason to not ask for a sub or not go AI. The unfair advantage given to the neighbors (in this case Ulm and C'tis) is tremendous.
Unfortunately, I can do nothing but look on in protest. I am however, left with a sour taste in regards to MP play.
Edit:
After a moment of retrospect, I request a 24 hour delay in hosting to allow a sub to be found. If one cannot be acquired, the admin should turn Niefel AI before the next turn. Though this action will likely result in only a speedbump for Ulm and C'tis it is still the correct thing to do in my opinion.
