Its one turn in a very late game in a very intense game, and its a HUGE deal. Yes, indeed this game is very taxing so partially its just an exuse to go out. You should know how taxing it is - and you are just fighting us, not the whole map.
But I wouldnt quit under normal circumstances. Staling a turn is not 'favorable', by any means. I have probably lost more territory, I have lost invaluable mage-time, and, most likely, golems to magic duelers - instead of killing some Atlantean mages as I was going to do. In our position, its next to impossible to recover from; it was hard to hould our ground even without staling.
Being accused of a lie just added insult to injury.
