I totally would (I mean how much worse can I make it), but the random gen nations are a bit tiresome and I'm already in 2 games. Just keep repeat recuitment on, makes for a somewhat decent nation to take over later.

Sorry to be making another request, but my new laptop was a lemon.  Returned it today, and ordered another laptop, should arrive in 2-5 days.

I think it is time to go AI for this game.  Anyone want to take over?  I'll give it a bit prior to submitting the "Go AI" turn.  Feel free to host in the meantime.

Need a 24h delay. Had no idea the deadline was coming up and I have to do a bunch of shit for work today and go in for work early tomorrow.

I'll be perfectly honest, since I have the scout network to reasonably judge this - we're shuffling deck chairs at this point. Momentum and geography are such that Sweoitmer is going to win. It's not really in question at this point, certainly not with (active) Noirbach out of the picture (not that I'd've wished their situation on any sub). I'm willing to continue irritating AlStar right up to the bitter end (especially since it can't be THAT far off), but I'd be just as willing to put an end to this short-lived (*wink, wink, nudge, nudge*) bloodbath...

Thank you for confirming that going AI was the right thing for me to do.  I debated long and hard about that decision.

Well, had you not gone AI it's possible that Sweoitmer could have been slowed in their progress enough for someone else (not you or me) to win. So it's not like it made no difference - and indeed, if one of your southern neighbors rapidly overruns you, it could even prove decisive and throw the balance of the game in another direction. I'd not count on it, but still...

Well, I'll take the world's surrender if it's being given, but only if everyone agrees - I certainly preached enough doom-and-gloom in 418, even though there were several teams that felt that there was at least a fighting chance for them (my team not included, obviously, given our switch to AI) to win.

In other news, any plans for a new game? And if so, any ideas what (if any) new shit we'll throw at the wall to spice things up?

I'm not certain you've won; I just think it's very, very likely, and it would be a long, slow, painful slog for any other nation to push you far enough back to win. Obviously, though, that's just my opinion. [Edit: also postponed hosting 24h since it's almost deadline and Kundorf's still out, and I'm pretty sure Kundorf staling right now is almost as good as deciding the game is done. Well, and also because I'm really tired and don't want to think right now even if my turn is mostly done.]

---

The next game of Dominions - certainly the next of a NationGenerous variety - that I'm likely to rabble-rouse for would be an all-Foulspawn abomination. Obviously, this should suggest that me playing as few games as possible for a bit would be a good thing, since I still need to finish getting the wretched things implemented. Ofc, it'd also help if I didn't have the attention span of a hyperactive gnat and could avoid doing things like going off on tangents like "centaur", "ogre", or "illithid". *sigh*

I would be intrested in another game, but my preference (as somewhat of a newb) would be more towards a minimalist approch, maybe vanilla with minimal mods again.
