@Lingchih, thanks pal. I understand why you may like to go AI and yet am sorry to see you go. Would you mind giving me a couple of days to try and find you a sub before you go AI?
@Micah, to each is own - I don't pretend to answer for the rest. For me the appeal comes from wanting a closure. I like the games I'm in to play to the end. Considering that this is a VP victory game there's no way its going to go on forever. The end is foreseeable. You want it to end, then go for them damn VPs

.
I think it goes w/o saying that the diplo agreements be respected by subs.
@Baalz and QM, can you please confirm whether or not you'd like for me to find you a sub?
