I ran across something kind of strange and am looking for some clarifacation about what constitutes a win, and who will oversee that it is a valid win. I myself don't have any hope of being in the winners circle so to speak so I have no axe to grind.
However, I think the players who HAVE made that accomplishment should be looked up to and not have it watered down by wins that perhaps whould not be counted.
I was purusing the forum the other day and came across an interesting game name so I thought I would see who was playing and try to pick up some pointers from the thread. I was very suprised what I saw...
There is one player playing agianst 4 to 5 nations left in a game. But all but 2 of the nations are AI and the other 2 have been abandoned (one has 19 stales and the other 14 stales).
the player left has announced that he should be the winner since no one is left (one of the nations is almost STILL even with the player after 19 stales).
I have noticed that he is playing out the game and has made it clear that he intends to be declared the winner and log it in the winners circle (or whatever you want to call it).
Maybe it isn't my business to mention this and I am not the one to determine if it is kosher or not, but it seems I could set up a number of games and be up there in the HOF with the legends if I wanted to win this way.
Someone with some rank might want to check it out and see what is going on...hell, for all I know he didn't really mean it when he said he was going to claim a win, and is just playing staling players for the fun of it.
Game is called NewbBunkers and is on the other forum if anyone cares
