A second spoils option when setting-up a game - "Escalating after 30 rounds"
Specifics:

An extra button which is greyed-out if players select Escalating spoils and becomes an active option if Flat Rate or No Spoils is selected.
If selected then, at the beginning of the 30th round, spoils become escalating.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

This would enable build-up games to be prevented - players start to cash in for bigger armies, meaning players are more likely to attack opponents - thus concluding the game more quickly.

Beautiful, great idea but maybe like as you said its greyed out but 2 players have to click on it (after round 30 it only becomes and option) for it to happen

DJ Teflon was suggesting this as an option at startup, not during the game. Your idea is an interesting but different suggestion, but I think you would want a unanimous vote to change the options of a game after it started.
I admire DJ's idea, but can't really comment on it since I always play escalating spoils anyway. I like knowing that eventually someone will likely cash in for an enormous deployment and wind up the game. I mean, I love this game, but sometimes, enough is enough.
I can suggest that it might be nice to make the switchover round selectable, so that the game becomes escalating at a round of the starter's choosing. No doubt some people are fed up after 30 rounds, while others might wait 60 or more.

Hmmm round 30 on doodle will take forever to come. Round 30 on World 2.1 is somewhere near the start of the game.
