Does anyone care about globals?
Well, Helheim has had up both Forge of the Ancients and Well of Misery up for a while now - does anyone care?
I guess I would've expected a neighbor of Helheim's to initiate some coordinated effort to dispel these (especially the FoTA) - does Helheim have no hostile neighbors?
I have also seen on the Dom3 boards a number of people (including quantum_mechani) who believe that no diplomacy or little diplomacy makes for a higher quality game. I am certainly not of that opinion, but is our game made up of players who consider diplomacy a bad thing?
One thing I will say is that I know that Helheim controls a large (huge maybe?) area, and that they've had FoTA up for a while, and WoM up, and afaict, both of these are unopposed. Based on these facts I would say that without diplomacy, Helheim's victory is a fait accompli.
Now in saying all the above, I should mention that I am having a great time playing in this game in my corner of the world. Also, I have no ill will vs. q_m (the player), he appears to have done an outstanding job of accumulating power in the early/mid game.
