I haven't seen any fatal mistakes either, but I've seen good being very slow in expansion. I assume the expansion phase must have been a chaos and not coordinated between players, many rich provinces were left unattended, despite the fact they are very lightly guarded (I almost tempted to attack some provinces with my scout!). defense in choke points was not established timely; to my surprise the nations bordering evil seems doing a lot of early research/site searching instead of harassing their enemies. Pythium was very 'timely' attacked by a bunch of barbarians (HAHAHA) but he also made a number of tactical blunders.

Other than these I don't know what other disasters have struck the good. But they could recover, the war is far from over yet.
