Here's the prob I have:

Even winning this game would not be satisfactory and will take months at our pace. The landscape has been totally messed up by stales. For example, my strategic thinking was that Marignon would be a good counter to Ermor, but they just evaporated with stales/player transition totally changing the landscape. The same might be said about Atlantis (under its old player) vs. me (although we were allies), or TC, or Man, or Hoburg.... Even if R'lyeh won this, I wouldn't even want to count it. So why play on in a game where most players would rather quit and a quarter of the original ones have just vanished? Not to mention, the story telling purpose of the game has disintegrated and that was why I joined.

Remember this -

If people don't want to write they don't need to join the game. There are enough others...


So far its 4-2 against continuing.
Caelum
Marignon (PMed me)
Rlyeh
Man

Any others have an opinion? If the remaining players strongly want to continue, maybe we can find some more subs...

Atlantis here. To be honest, the game is not that interesting for me I'll keep on playing and doing my best, but there is actually very little I feel I could do with just WEA magic available (and since a few turns back Death too), very hard pressed by hostile dominions spreading under the waves, and there is only so little I can RP to the wiki (Turn 33: This turn we did raise some taxes and built a temple. Turn 34: This turn we did raise some taxes and built a temple. Turn 35: This turn we did raise some taxes and built a temple...). Ok, I have (I think) recruited and summoned a nice army (compared to what I had when I joined the game) for such a small nation that Atlantis is atm, but I am so far behind in research (I think) that the end-game doesn't look promising.

So, I'll continue if the majority decides to continue, but I wouldn't actually cry a river if the game ended...
