keeping a game alive to postpone collecting points from it ?

Why would you say it is an unjust world? Its not good enough to get the points for the win? You have to try to milk out a few more. I do agree being put on a few ignore list is unjust, you should be put on many more.

Fair question... I have not, and would not, do that again.
As for other legal tricks,.. I would never turn synch; but I don't know what the others are.

Ending the game is part of the game. Winning the game is the object of the game.

Why don't you put in the whole topic that you quoted me so someone who wants to can see what I was talking about. You just want to mislead as to what I was talking about. Waiting for the time to run low in a freestyle turn is not the same as trying to suck of few more points from someone.

I would like to see all your games end with you sitting with one army and the winner just prolonging killing you.

Even so, why would you prolong it?

No harm - no foul. Except for the unjust reputation that was caused by this thread early on. Who knows how many ignore lists I'm on because of it

So just how many ignore lists?
All I know for sure is that I sent out PM's for a game invitation to 12 players and 4 wouldn't go thru... 33% ? Wow.
It's an un-just world!

I agree with tanar, a surrender button would be nice.

That should be a priority for CC, to work out any bugs that give advantage to cheating, or bogus play. If they can do that, these bitch sessions would disappear- well at least the legit complaints would.

something else I think would be cool is a section for live action play- where people actually play their turns within a day (granted it would be for those without lives, but...)

if there were a surrender button, i could make 6 accounts, start 4 games, have 5 people surrender, and amass points. then rinse and repeat. obviously there are several bugs that would need to stop the abuse (secret alliances) of a surrender button.

Finally, somebody with a brain that can read... thankyou vic
I had nearly given up hope!
Seems there are alot of people that get a tiny bit of information and then:
**bring out ignore list**
**add name**
**put ignore list away**
Fortunantly most of those people aren't old enough to vote, so the world is still safe.
You have restored my faith in mankind!
