I was looking thru early games and wondered:
% Why is there no game 5?
% In game 6, the logs say "hernando cortez surrendered". When was the
surrender feature dropped? I know it's be suggested and rejected many
times, but didn't realize it was originally available.

I was not here for long enough to know anything about the use of the surrender button.
However, as for game numbers being missing, this is a result of people making games and then dropping them very quickly. For example, if I made a Game 7700000 right now, realized I didn't like the settings, and then dropped it, there will never be ANOTHER Game 7700000 ever made. That's simply how the system works.

Surrender button parted ways with Conquer Club not very long after we started up (early 2006).
