Thats the way the politics of this game work, and thats the way they SHOULD work. Next time you should realize this and cut your growth back in favor of consolidation so you dont become the automatic target.

Don't count on it with Cohen. This is the second game I've been in with him where he was way ahead of everyone in the graphs and then quit. The other one, he was sprawled across almost the whole width of a wrap around map (Orania), with most of it being only 2 to 3 provinces 'deep'. Sure, he was able to expand massively and have 'fun' doing so, but while building an empire that was ridiculously fragile and vulnerable. Soon as people started hitting the weak links - AI. Still in the lead on most graphs.

I've encountered this behaviour from Cohen as well. It wouldn't normally bother me, since I get to choose who I play against, but if I play exclusively on the mosehansen server (which I do) then this privilege is denied to me.

The reason is that Cohen is hogging the server with his games. He starts one, quits early, starts another. At the moment 25% of the running games on mosehansen were started by Cohen.

Esben, if you're reading this, can you think of a solution?

And now he's gone one further - he just stopped this game, because he'd gone AI, and so doesn't want it to count against his quota.

lol. classic

though it could well just be incompetence on Cohen's part - that certainly wouldn't be unexpected

I disowned the game, don't stopped it.
Game is uprunning for what I know.

It was stopped when I looked earlier. And why are you disowning the games? They're still _yours_.

Now you're just being dishonest by trying to remove your name from the games you made.

Rather like going to the bathroom on the floor, and trying to make sure your name isn't there too.
