Hm... I didnt belive it would be too large, but you seem to prove me wrong against.

I dont think its already over, although Mictlan has a large lead in almost everything. Actually I'm enjoining myself tremendously in this game

I think im actually running ahead of a normal games research, very hard is just 250% more expensive research while we have 300% more gold and also more provinces than normal.

I dont think Mictlan has won either, in fact I think they have little chance to win and should just be ignored by everyone.

Mictlan is very powerful, since it was able to get uncontested most of the main ocean. However, that makes it a clear frontrunner and thus a bit of a target...

Can we please postpone hosting by 18h? Suddenly found i won't be able to make move until then.

Well I for one don't think I can stop Mictlan.

I for one think this game's been a joke for a while now anyway. This is just like the earlier try we had (whichever it was that we actually played, 3 or 4?), except this time instead of two players having too good positions to begin with, there's just one.

In retrospect, it would've made a world of difference if I had started in the BIG sea rather than the small one, while most other stuff would've stayed the same. Mictlan wouldn't have grown into the sea and to the other side of it and whatnot.

I think Glory is a problematic map. The SE corner can really only fit 1 nation (if there are 2, 1 of them is hosed depending on how fast the NE land nation expands south), and because of long coastlines the efficacy of a land nation's success depends greatly on how far from the coast it is.

Also, LA is naturally weird with water because instead of 3 UW-start nations there's R'lyeh, Mictlan, and Atlantis (plus Ermor kind of).

Also, due to unexpected internet outage I am forced to ask for +12 hours to the turn.

Ossa · #9 April 11th, 2010, 04:57 AM

Yep, I'd also vote for calling it quits. I'll never be able to stop Mictlan now

I'm also in favor, and I apologize for starting to stale at the end. I was away this weekend and having real-world crises and it slipped my mind.
