Okay, well if you've decided not to take any more turns then please send in a turn wherein you make yourself AI--I don't think I could find another substitute for Gath!

Are we down to C'tis vs. Atlantis? Judging by forum chatter and what I can see, no one else looks like they are contending.

(My repeated questions are not trying to prematurely end the game (I can go one indefinitely), but I don't want to play if the game becomes post-mature.)

What is post-mature?

I've only finished one game that I personally hosted so far, and from that game, I learned that most dudes will not hold on until the end, and also (this is a separate, but related, fact) that a war becomes boring after a single leader has passed a certain threshold of success. I think that the victory point system can be used to ameliorate the latter problem, but we aren't using it here. So Mistletoe will eventually peter out in a mildly awkward fashion. (And, incidentally, I will aim to be the last one to leave, whether I'm winning or losing at the time, because I am crazy.)

Until then, some of us will continue to experience interesting battles!

Due to hoo's recent stales and seeming disinterest in continuing, I will make Gath AI myself, if we reach the last hour or so before hosting and it looks like the nation is about to stale again. Unless I forget, in which case I'll do it right after the hosting.

The llamaserver's web page looks stuck again. Ermor's turn is in (hours ago) with confirming email.

Well, I forgot (until the very last minute). I was distracted by an attempt to play the old game Master of Magic, which as far as I can tell is 100% obsoleted by some combination of Dominions III and Civilization IV. Disappointing!

Gath will become AI at the next opportunity.

Why do AI's have to attack those they were at peace with and leave their enemies alone? Grrr...
