Illuminated One:

If you can clam, he can clam too. And if he is stronger, he can clam more.

As Micah stated in Preponderance thread - late-game is longer and more challenging because general level of MP community is higher. Earlier vet could win even quite big games before real end game would happen. Now you can research all stuff on turns 30-40 and be far far away from seeing a victorious nation. So new tactics are appearing. And mass sick clamming is among them. I had 100 tartarians once. I had more than 500 mages more than once. I had over 50 forts. I was crazy clamming. All is ok, until it happens at once. And it does happen, if you want to win. And well, everyone plays to win.

Some people are surprised that Micah has 170 clams in one game and that he can make about 15 clams a turn. The sad thing is that it's quite common to see people making 10+ clams/turn from turn 60.
