I doubt it because the victory condition was to capture exactly 6. Sorry for intrusion but I've been watching this game a bit since karnoza started subbing for underdog Vanheim. Actually he was going to win from the very first turn (I think it was turn 58 or something like that). Position was terrific but he nearly managed to.

Hohoho, here be the choices.

1. Mutually agree to share godhood.

2. Deathmatch.

For Karnoza to win he is to take 2 of Executors captured capitals (since Executor claims to have seven then taking 2 would bring him down to 5).

For Executor to win he is to take 1 of Karnoza's capitals, bringing him down to 5.

Under the assumption that the original time constraint is met before Karnoza/Executor meet the above req's there will be no 'waiting' period once the req's are accomplished. Ie. If Executor takes one of Karnoza's caps on turn X then he wins on turn X. Likewise for Karnoza, ie. the turn Karnoza takes the second capital away from Executor is the turn that he wins.

The game will last very long in the second case, believe me. It is more probable that they will capture other capitals than take any from each other. Also, it is a bit unfair, IMO, to add any conditions when they were not preset.

Karnoza sent me a message telling that he is seriously sick and that he's been put to the hospital till the weekend. Obviously, he won't be able to play these days if you decide to continue. AFAIK, he never delayed this game so (if you decide to continue), taking on account the late stage of the game, it would be nice if the game was stopped until Monday. If you decide to stop, I may send anyone the save of turn 79 which is required to verify his 6 capitals.

Well at the very least it's a joint victory, but however I still have a chance to win(solo), so I'll wait for him.

Well then, if you wish to continue, he'll post here once he returns from the hospital. I hope there's nothing serious there.

Hello, everyone. I have returned. Thanks a lot for waiting.
I'd like to remind you that I've been subbing for previous Vanheim controllers from turn 58. It was not me who suggested the victory condition and I wouldn't want to dicuss if it was correct or fair but it was given and I eagerly tried to fulfil it. Now I may say that I succeeded. Noone will be able to take any of my capitals in 2 turns without breaking a NAP and even if someone decides to break it I hardly imagine how he may take my castles. I have plenty of SC's, powerful spellcasters and some other stuff to defend them - you may check it, of course. But I have absoultely no interest in continuing this game to find out who is an "absolute" winner.
On turn 58 Vanheim was, without exaggeration, an underdog. I did a good spurt but it doesn't make sense indeed to do something again and again when rules are being constantly changed. And also, it is a bit strange to expect that the runners who reached finish at the same moment will start boxing to find out who is the winner.
Enough said. You may declare a draw or a win for Executor - probably he deserved it. For me this game will be over in 2 turns.

I personally would love the runners who reach the finish to start boxing to find out who the winner is! Unfortunately I didn't create the game, and am just admining it. If both you and executor fulfill the victory conditions at the same time then the game will end in a draw.

Well, shall we see who the winner is? Looks like all we're waiting is Slobbys turn to get in to get this game finished.
