Re: Preponderance - Big Team Game! [1-2 subs needed!]
*shrug* Alright. If you want to play what's essentially SP you're more than welcome to as far as I'm concerned, and I don't see why Zeldor would mind giving you the host files.
You've clearly not been listening to what I've been saying though, which is that the economy of the game is completely broken at this point. That is why the game should be ended, above and beyond any fun factor. I've stuck out every single other game I've been in to the end (see arti and the last team game for examples if you'd like, as well as all of the games I've lost) and this one is a clear exception to that because of how degenerate it has become.
I certainly didn't expect it to happen when I joined the game, but it's undeniable at this point. Saying that QM and I shouldn't have joined this game is like complaining that a ballgame is canceled because a tornado touched down in the stadium. I suppose it's up for debate if the team that was ahead when the game was called should be given credit for a win, but I don't think anyone would blame them for asking.
Regardless, there are clearly exceptional circumstances at work here in terms of the Dominions engine being subject to a few exploits this late into a large game. I guess you just haven't been in enough late game situations to really understand the underlying problems here, but it's pretty clear that all of the vets have given up on this game. I'm just the only one competitive enough to try to salvage a win out of it, since I think our situation justifies it in light that the game is over/broken at this point, and I didn't want to just abandon a winning position without at least seeing if people would be reasonable about things. Evidently not.
