Re: Opinions on ethics of this PBW move
I amend my quote to say "with in the game evironment." That includes the real world. Is it OK to e-mail outside a game and talk about the game and make deals that affect the game? I know several folk that do with out a second thought. I would also like to point out that surrender is a two edge sword. Some one surrendered to me in a game once and all thos worlds in the empire imediatly(sic) rioted. And a few turns later I my empire went down the tubes because the other empire Cost too much to take over. In a situation like that as host I would ask all the game players if such a manuver(sic) was OK or not. I believe that the hosts main job is to insure all players have fun with a level playing field to start on.
