That's inaccurate. The trades were mutually beneficial in all cases, and most of them were with the games third largest player (obviously no chance of winning! Boy must he be a sucker) - and serious players don't refuse mutually beneficial agreements in a 57 player game!

I would argue, but Gath is right. As the fourth largest player, I can say with confidence: you're all doomed, I've won the game already. However, I will graciously continue playing so as not to rob all of you of your enjoyment. The graphs, which show me last in research among large nations, don't tell the entire story, which is this: I win.

Gath's real problem is that I'm larger than *he is*, and he can't beat me by himself, so he must convince everyone else that I'm the biggest threat in the cosmos. Fortunately, I find it unlikely that any water nations will volunteer for spoiler in a #4 vs #9 fight.
