Are Replacements becoming a problem?

[DavidG]

Personally I see nothing wring with withdrawing from a game if you have given it a good shot and are being thoroughly beaten since many games will not allow surrender. I suspect most of the games with open slots that are late in the game and the open slot is pretty much beaten. A quick scan of the open games reveals 23 Open - not started, 17 needing replacements that are less than turn 75, and only 9 that need replacements and are less than 50 turn old.

(of course the key phrase here is 'giving it a good shot' No doubt there are some players who will quit pretty early given a poor start)
