While I agree with you about the independents at level 7 being perhaps a bad idea (I find it tends to harm the non-rush nations the most, making rush even more frustrating to deal with) I actually recall our host mentioning the level 7 independents, as I specifically designed my strategy around that level. But I don't remember when this was mentioned.

Although I didn't vote to begin with, I too am of the opinion that we should continue as is... it is easy enough to begin a separate game if folks are that upset, but many people seem to be getting their turns in without too many problems.

The front post, that states independents are at 7, was last edited over 5 days ago. So, I'm inclined to think it was intentional, not spur of the moment.

I find it funny, that the person who finds it funny that the "host who won't restart has said he's having his best start ever", is the person who the host with the best start ever is killing. If that isn't irony, I don't know what is.

When the game was first announced, and for a good deal of time afterwards, at least half a week, maybe more, the front page said nothing about independent strength. I joined when the game was first created.

hmm, I'm not sure when independent strength was put up, but I was lucky enough to see it and plan accordingly.

It was 7 at the start--also you can always check during a game to see what the settings for indies are anyway.

There has been a request for a delay; as stated at the outset, I want to be liberal on delay requests. So the game will not host tonight, but tomorrow night.

I will leave it set to quick host, so if Aezeal gets his turn in we will be good to go. That cover it Aezeal, or do you want to delay next turn?

Best to all

Actually, it wasn't.
