BTW that is the last turn I am doing before my trip to Shanghai. I think moderatio will be able to play for me now as people did some tests proving you can submit 2 turns from same cd-key. If not you can surely find someone. I will be back on 5th August.

SORRY, THE BURNINATOR HAS BEEN LAX IN FINISHING OFF PYTHIUM. GRAND MARSHAL ZELDOR HAS BEEN A WILY OPPONENT, EXPANDING AS FAST TO THE WEST AS I CAN CONQUER IN HIS EAST. PERHAPS THE SUB WILL BE KIND ENOUGH TO SEND ANOTHER SHIPMENT OF HARBINGERS THOUGH, WE'VE QUITE RUN DRY.

I mind. Good being able to communicate is one thing, taking each others turns and fully knowing their tactical setup is another.

Plus, when evils miss turns, they get set to AI. Good? Just take their turn? I don't think so.

I have to agree. We lost a number of Evils who just switched themselves to AI, and the game keeps going. It seems a bit unfair for an absent Good player not to be set to AI.

I will bow to whatever decision is made, but I thought I would express my opinion in Rathar's support, since I am (somewhat) neutral. ; )

It's not exactly the same thing ... the Goods are right next to each other. If one of us goes AI, the AI might attack one of the rest of us. And, also, I have given tons of items to Pythium. I am heavily invested in him. It's not fair that he goes away.

And besides.. it's not like Good is in danger of winning, anyway. Things are basically hopeless for us at this point (well not completely, but mostly. We are not under any delusions that we have much of a chance anymore). One of the neutrals is going to win this game.

*clears throat* Hrm...hmm.. And.. uh.. Arco has just asked me to take over for him as well .... *cough*

I will admit that playing 3 factions does seem like something of a breach ...

But, 2 factions (until we can find a replacement) doesn't seem so bad to me. Especially since if one of the Goods goes AI, the rest of us might as well, too. So, I don't know what to do at this point. I'd like to keep playing, but it's just to keep playing and maybe get some revenge on Ermor and Bandar that is keeping me going at this point. Our hopes of winning are slowly being sucked into the massive monolith of Abyssian power.

Seriously, I'm not sure if all of us Goods together can stop Abysia at this point. But, even so, he's doomed when the Neutral powerhouses descend on him (most likely).

So, yeah. I don't know what to do. I do know that if Pythium goes AI, it's game over for team Good.

I would rather wait for a player than have another in command of two nations both of whom are attacking me directly. The ability to coordinate is ridiculous in this case. I also point out that Lanka was right next to me and set to AI with a good condition nation.

Two (or more) nations controlled by one player is unacceptable to me. When one gives things to a nation you run the risk of them disappearing. Self interest should not make an appearance here.

If you stepped away from it I think you would have to admit it's not kosher.
