The last time I actually finished a SP game was one that had victory points. Everything else I bail when it get to be nothing except micromanagment. I do enough of that at work...

Intersting to see the results so far, I wonder how it will shake out over the weekend.

I think that solo players might tend to lurk more. Check the "Extra Information" at the bottom of the screen. There tends to be 3 times as many anonymous users as registered ones at any time. I dont think that a lot of MPers are unregistered. There are probably some. I just think that SPers might be more hit-and-run on the forum, and MPers would tend to register in order to help in joining into games.

Like vfb, Sombre, and Saxon, I play mostly SP, and pronounce myself the winner when there's nothing left to do but finish grinding the AI into the dirt. Which is too bad, because I like the high-level spells and items (even used against me!)... but the micromanagement makes the end-game drag.

Umm... Is it just me, or do those percentage numbers not add up to 100%?

Must be rounded down, leaving the fractional part

I play SP, and either bail or adopt projects after victory is obvious. Projects include SC builds and experimenting with spell combinations (last interesting one was Astral Corruption + Infernal Prison to allow my high end spellcasters to continue to use non-Blood spellcasting).
