Capital sites perhaps?

yeah, I guess this is the only way. The method is somewhat annoying, well unless the winner makes it easier for rdonj by giving the province numbers of the 9 capitals he controls.

It also means that the players will not be able to know who controls more VPs or is closer to victory by the score graphs.
Are you sure you want to give up on this indication?- The alternative is relying on scouting and speculation. Theoretically, a player could go very close to victory undetected.
I'm not sure I like this side effect of going that route.

You could have the admin post in-thread when a cap is taken or lost with the appropriate information, it would be the same as a graph.

Edit: Any player getting a cap should notify the admin so that the admin wouldn't have to check in constantly, of course. Since VPs aren't exchanged too often in most games this shouldn't be too much of a burden for anyone, though some sort of sanctions should probably be enacted for failure to notify the admin. (If you don't notify the admin the turn you get the capital then your VP doesn't count until 5 turns after the notification, perhaps? If you have 2 late notifications it takes 10 for them to count, etc.)
