I'm not sure I'm interested. I respect your right to try and step out of a game.

But, as a 2 player lover, I want you to know that everyone loses and has trouble in some games. Sometimes you lose because of darkvines, or maybe your opponent got sages in his second province ("Damn I have no idea how his research is so high.") You can't expect to expand as fast as trampler nations.

Here you are, on turn 58, and it looks like Pan is the victor unless there is some very strong reasons why his power is limited (an alliance), it looks like he may soon win. From the stats there seems to be reason to doubt Gaths power... and Pan is very powerful late game, so I think that if its been well played with the research, similar gem prodcution and ridiculously breathtaking income...

Anyway, if you're just quitting because you've lost, I think that that is silly. You can either conspire with one of the biggies for you to get much bigger... then hopefully be a late contender... Or assault. I love to assault. I assualt as I die. I assualt sometimes because I've become bored with simply growing strength. I am a 2 player game lover and I am ridiculously aggressive. I reccomend it, set the world on fire. No one will blame you.

Bigdaddy - if you read the thread, then you would know that me and ermor have been allied or NAPed since basically the beginning of the game. I am not abandoning the game for losing or any such nonsense. If I were to do that, it would have been on the eve of the battle that saw benjaminite slingers slaughter a fully equipped golem in melee. Now that was depressing. In actuality, I am abandoning this game because I need to drop all of my dominions games. This particular game could easily last 40 more turns, and with the hosting interval as it is that could take months. I don't have the time to keep playing anymore, so I need to leave. Simple as that.

Second, though pan is very powerful, unless he is much more powerful than what I've seen from him indicates, I believe either gath or ermor could defeat him by themself. Gath in particular has insane amounts of artifacts, and pan has only recently become as powerful as they are.

Third, before you decide to direct incredibly insulting and uncalled for posts at people, please make sure that you have the remotest idea what you are talking about.

Fourth, I would love to see you try to win this game, lol.

Edit: And for the record, me and pan expanded at roughly the same rate, with me ending up just a bit bigger after the end of the initial expansion.

Pan has a powerful late game? Ummm.... first time I've ever heard that. (Sorry, just eavesdropping).
