Any chance for a rollback? Dunno how ppl usually deal with such a matter - of course I'll moan about about not being able to submit orders, but I won't be the only one....?

No one could.

So, either rollback or a stale turn. Your call.

I would just ignore that stale turn and let the game go on. Who knows what complications occur if we start to tinker with llamaserver.

Normally I'd vote to just press on, but with the Burden of Time up, it's a bit different. Plus, Shin gets a free turn's worth of siegeing on those VP captials, which isn't trivial given how close he is to winning. I say we rollback.

This game was screwed up before this and is even worse now. My understanding is at least one nation has invited Shin to take its capital to hasten the end, making it pretty demotivating for those who would otherwise fight to the last man.

And now we are rolling back turns, prolonging the pointlessness? I'd just move to elect Shin the winner and move on at this point.

I would not mind being done with this game.

Oh and just for the record, I think a fairly large game with low Victory Conditions is an interesting concept, but if you try it again, I'd suggest stressing very loudly to people that the nature of the game is going to require vigilance and action.

Oh, I'd also suggest doing so on a wrap-around map, especially something like Asia Twist which has predefined starts that are pretty evenly spaced about the map.

Basically Shinuyama's start position in this game gave them a tremendous advantage, only magnified by them being coached by Zhao.

If people want to call it, that is fine with me. I'm fairly confident that I'll hit 6 VP in the next 3-4 turns, though I'd say there is still a slight chance of rain on my parade.

At the moment I have 3 VPs. I have powerful armies on 2 other capitals (Mictlan, Bandar Log), and am very confident that I can take those in the next two turns. For the final VP I'm attacking or set up to attack 3 other capitals, though each of these attempts is a bit more risky, and might take several additional turns if things don't go according to plan.

Very well then, it seems like people will start calling me names if I don't end this game

If someone would like to fight to the bitter end, let me know. I will declare this game finished tomorrow unless someone objects.

Congratulations to the winner.
