Let's just finish it out - I think the outcome will be clearer in the next 10 turns.
Agreed. Rex, Slynky, Joachim, myself have all said we'd be willing to continue if everybody else is. Of the rest, if any of you wish to drop out, that's fine. If you want to keep playing that's fine as well.

With Gandalph gone and Tesco on his Last legs, something big is going to happen soon I'm sure. Rex and Slynky and Joachim will all be without major adversaries, so unless they are going to spend the next 50 turns mopping up the remainder of us small frys I expect they will be eyeing each other somewhat. How this will all be affected by the various alliances I don't know, but it will probably be interesting to watch.

The game will be on ALPU, unless that becomes a problem with people not doing their turns. I should be able to get mine in this evening sometime.

Eek, I dropped out of this game Last year, so it seems alarikf has been doing a great job at this, so let's give credit where credit is due.

Well, HELLO, STRANGER! (smile)

Yes, he played a great game. To catch you up on it, when you dropped, I had no choice but to try to convert a lost ally to planets gained. Then alarikf stepped in. We warred a bit and he proposed a subjugation. I accepted and we went from there. He proved to be quite honest so I removed the subjugation. More turns passed and I gifted him tech and some ships to get him started. Since that time, he has been a great ally. You would be proud!

I lurk here sometimes, but I post quite a lot on the Dom2 board, so I'm not exactly a stranger.

I think you guys should not reward/punish yourselfs with points for the rating system.

As it has done what we all hoped it would not do. And that is help determine the outcome of a game.

I for one would like to see this as the only time this ever happens.
Yep, the Ratings thing was a problem in the game.

So - Rex - does that mean you are about to attack me if the game is going to be over in 10 turns?

Sorry for being late with my turn fellas, I did most of it then ran into the same bug/problem I did Last turn - when I run out of fleet names the game hard crashes on me. I forgot about it, so I had my turn pretty much finished, then, boom. So I'll do it again later tonight or tomorrow night at the latest.

Is it time to come to an agreement on this game? 1300 ships and going strong, I'm actually tired of spending so much time on a game turn that really amounts to, as far as I can see it, wiping planets. If there is some surprise in store for the game leaders, it's fine to keep playing but if not, do we need to continue?

You might try an email to Joachim. He's the "swing vote" on anything we might decide for this game.
