Ha, that game didn't even last a year. There have been many longer games. And no, round limits should not be mandatory.

Bollocks.

Ok, so if I get stuck in a game where everyone decides to dick off and build up super massive armies; is it okay for me to just suicide and get out of such a douche bag game?

Because, really it shouldn't take anyone over 50 rounds to finish a game; if it takes you over a hundred rounds to play a game of online Risk-style games, then all you are doing is dickin' off.

50 rounds is plenty and I am all for round limitations of 50. If not, then I will take my chances at auto attacking massive armies with my piddly 5. I've taken down an army as large as 19 with only 2 troops...don't think your super massive armies are safe from DaGip, you douche bag troop horders!

its like those car giveaways where the last person touching the car wins it. ive been in plenty of them myself. if you dont like them its best to not join a no spoils game with no round limit.

i dont mind them so much anyway. i usually sit idle in most games anyway where i can just sit back while everyone spars. if i cant play like that then i dont really want to play. that is how i enjoy the site that i pay membership for.

i live in texas too. deer hunting? or the car game?....or both?

i once saw them do the same thing in a roller coaster. they were giving away x amount of dollars to the last person on board. after a few weeks the probably five or so folks left decided to split the pot. i wonder how much $$$ the amusement spent vs. gained on that stunt.

that video you posted was funny. especially the lady that prayed for a truck and figured that was the lord telling her to do that.

ha ha. thats my people. :oops:

You, sir (with all due respect) are a douche.

Truthfully, I used to play like a douche too; but as I aged I realized my own mortality and wanted to experience more games without waiting a year to finish one. I remember someone asking me to babysit their account and they had a game where everyone had thousand man armies. I said,"Screw this shit!" and lost the game for him by attacking the douche that was in the lead. Needless to say...I never babysat ever again.

Also, the game that was shown as an example in this thread was not a "no spoils" game. It was "flat rate". If you let armies build like that using "flat rate" then you are indeed just dicking off. And I don't join those types of games anymore, I usually stick with Galapagos no spoils. It's usually short and sweet for a no spoils game. I almost entirely stick with FOW games too.

There was a suggestion for round limits built into every game to stop stalemates but they went for increasing spoils for escalating games instead ](*,)
Makes sense to someone I guess :roll:
