Just my 2 cents. This is only the second game I've played, so I'm no expert.
My thoughts as well. I've played in a couple games with graphs on and inevitably as soon as someone pulls away from the pack, a alliance forms to take them down. I guess that can be fun too, kind of a king of the hill type of situation. But, I like a game where there is some uncertainty and bluffing and such is possible.
