YARG - Yet Another RAND Game [Isokron's Midgard wins!]

[TwoBits]

Yeah, we should cut Maerlande some slack: He subbed into a game - which is a very cool thing to do - with a very unusual setup, and we can't then really blame him for not adhering completely to the rules (after all, he didn't mention any specific nation, etc.). I for one didn't peg him as a sub, mainly because I lack the attention span necessary to follow this thread attentively (crap, this game has gone on long enough for me to forget most of what happened early on). And besides, his questions are largely irrelevant at this point anyway

Maerlande, nobody's chastising you. At least not as far as I can tell.
All rule systems have their gray areas and corner cases. There's nothing wrong with you asking. In a game such as this an astute player may guess the identity of other players based on nuances such as they way they like to expand or fight etc. So while it's true you could ask in a different way or thread I don't think this is a cause of much fuss.
I for one appreciate your agreeing to sub. Keep up the good work and if you have further questions re. victory conditions then just ask rdonj. If he ain't sure he can contact me and we'll iron it out.
In YARG2 I'll post the recommended way to ask questions in the house rules section so it'll be clearly defined.
