So I don't understand why he is playing in this game. He will just do the same thing again.

"quit?" really?

Wow Ghoul, your are just sore aren't you? That's not true and was more than three weeks ago anyway.

I was declared winner by a clear majority of players (and also by the top nations) despite your moaning, I certainly didn't just "quit" as you say. And please don't outright lie by saying it was the "middle" of the game when it was clearly the endgame.

I also didn't say that I didn't have time for dom3, just the gargantuan endgame and being the most powerful nation by far, with my schedule + computer problems at that time.


Anyone who's interested can look at the thread here : http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showt...ght=greenstone

But this is the best quote to look for, where ghoul himself declares me the winner.

In addition to that being three weeks ago, I do believe it will be a few more weeks before turns of this game take more than a few minutes, so don't worry about me Ghoul (rl schedule won't be a problem anymore even for long turns), you just make sure you play a more active game this time.

here is a quote from Grijalva

"This was, at first, simply because of my crazy rl work these days. The final straw happened with the last stale: my laptop decided to finally quite on me. I tried to solve the problem and even delayed the game by 24hours, but it seems as though the real only solution is to find a sub to take over. Its possible to play my other two games on my work computer as they are in their early stages, but spending several hours at work playing dom3 just isn't feasible.

Sorry guys, and thanks for being so patient, it was great playing with everyone. I'll post a sub thread now."


It is clear from that, he quit the game, and posted for a sub. I just hope he won't do it again

Drama already! We haven't even uploaded pretenders yet. ~,~

[Eximius Sus]

The famous Ghoul31. I've heard of you.

Right ghoul, I offered to find a sub and we agreed that I should just be declared winner instead...then you cried.

Ok, I've said my piece, this shouldn't have been spilled into this thread anyway, I just hope ghoul doesn't complain about losing this time too.

[Amhazair]

Well, I went over to the other thread, and can't say I could find any objectionable action by Grijalva. He only announced that he couldn't keep up with his turns due to temporary work spike and technical difficulties, and that he would be looking for a sub. A pity, certainly, but in the end his actions were fit and proper as far as I can see. God knows unexpected events can pop up in RL. After that not he but others declared him the winner. Whether that was premature or not I don't know since I wasn't in the game. Possibly it would have been better to allow everyone more time to make their feelings about the situation clear, but in the end I don't see how Grijalva can be blamed for that, nor why the discussion should affect this game.

So, since he assures us that his RL will most certainly return to a more manageable situation by the time turns begin getting longer in this game, I see absolutely no problem, and wellcome Grijalva to our game. (again)

I agree Grijalva, this arguing shouldn't spill over to this thread, so would everybody please refrain from position things irrelevant to this game here, not everybody has the time to read through all the threads and may very well miss something relevant to this game with all this gibberish.
