As Ive already said, I HAD scouts and knew darn well how many province's he had but was laboring under the false assumtion that it was a concession game.
Here is my turn file to prove it, the Only 2 capitals that can not be seen on that turn are Yomi's and Neifles and I had previously had scouts at Neifle's cap before we had to move scouts around thanks to some bug that messed up our game, and obviously he had his own capital.
And Of course I know its my own damn fault for not knowing the conditions. What do you think I am an idiot? Irregardless as I say it doesnt change the fact that it was a hollow victory for Calahan because that is the only reason he won was because I had been thinking it was a concession game and not a VP game. If I had known it I'd have have easily stopped him from winning long ago. Him holding a few capitals didnt mean jack diddly squat as far as I was concerned, sure maybe they gave him a few extra gems but I didnt consider it important.
