I don't think anyone is disputing that Verjigorm. CP said that if there were no objections he had no problem with it. And i don't for the record.

But the rules have been stated and you (and Maverni) have to declare which vps you are claiming each turn. At least from now on. TwoBits should also start posting his vps if he wants them.

CP is in charge of the game and while we can all have a view on whether this form of victory is good or bad it is what it is for this game. The much of the purpose appears to be to stop anyone sneaking up on victory. It is going to be obvious and as/if you approach victory you can expect the rest of us will know and to react if we can. Is this a good mechanic? Well that's a different discussion as it IS the mechanic for this game

And if nothing else it will keep the thread on the first page
