NEW EA GAME - Server Is Up. Game has started.

I think you should continue playing, Chris. You are doing great, and there is no reason for you to feel compelled to step down from the game. Let me be quite clear here, you totally squished Vanheim with that dragon. No doubt about it, you clobbered me. Sometimes you are the windshield, and sometimes you are the bug.

I don't really feel like your decision on the voting was influenced by your position in the game. So if that is why you are quitting, don't! Enjoy the fruits of war.

Xox has cast another vote in favor of continuing. I agree with his post that this kind of thing should be discouraged in general. I am just a very fair-minded person, and it sure looked like there were a majority of votes cast in favor of a restart. As a fair-minded person, I hardly think it's fair to you for you to relinquish your position as some kind of remedy.

If I should apologise for a brash jump to conclusions, then I am happy to do so. I think I will try to set up a server and host a game so I can see how much trouble it is to deal with everything. Then maybe I could have more to say.

A generous post Strict.
Thank you - I look forward to gaming with you in the future.

As Ulm has staled for the last 2 turns, has not answered the forum, and has not submitted a turn for this turn, I am going to offer the position to Calahan and Xanatos.

I have no idea if the position is valid. To tell the truth, I have no idea how to use the master password either = ). Learning experience.

For this reason, absent objection I am going to delay this turn pending a response.

no seems fine..

Though I want to mention the fact that Ulm might complain since I see no post you get ditched after two turns...

It's not quite as bad as getting ditched after 1 turn when 2 was said.. but similar and in the aforementioned case .. someone was complaining a great deal

Pretty sure it was in the original post--along with 7 str indies.........

Agreed Aezeal,
And I am sorry what happened to you in that game. Its one of the reasons I am delaying the turn to try to get a response.

Calahan has said that he will take a look at the position with the idea of playing it. If he has no interest, I then propose to turn it to AI. In fairness, I will probably do the same with Strict's position.

Lastly, does anyone have an issue with me giving the master password to him? Theoretically he could use it to rape all our positions - but I for one trust players.

If their is objection, I will just set it to AI.

Do what you feel is best. There's no way I'm gonna win this one, but I am still having fun playing. I still have some rabbits I can pull out of my hat.
