So are you guys ever going to hit a fig? Or are you referring to turtling as still playing. I agree you guys are still logged in and running pdrop and foton. I think we can do the same.

The question is how do you see Either team winning, when neither can invade the other?


I believe we've taken out the guy on your team with the fastest ping. We should have no problem gridding against the rest of your team now.

We'll see who's the turtle... I've been actively passive gridding nearly every day.


lol I had the 2nd slowest. In any case you don't have the deaths to invade. I also said we ARE going to turtle now too!

FYI ping didn't matter in this one.. the Delay that is set does.

Then when we own 99.9% of the grid and the majority of the assets, then what?

Might I recommend we eliminate the death limit and finish this game? Otherwise, I will have to wait for fat-finger Star Killer to make a mistake, and that could take forever. :)
IDK, is he even allowed to go forth on his own? :mrgreen:

It's not a tournament if there's no death limit.

And yes Star Killer does go forth on his own from time to time, we all do. He's learned from past games :)

Doesn't apply here... but where did you come up with that? Aside from a small hand full, we rarely have death limits in the tournaments.

You cannot change the settings once the game has started.

I'm not saying there should be any changes to the game. I'm saying do the math. You don't have the remaining Death's to invade. We have more then you do yet we don't have enough to invade you. so there won't/can't be a result of take all winner.

We had a corp meeting this morning, we do NOT accept stalemate. You must surrender to us!

We have no reason to "surrender"
So-
Again, there can't and won't be a winner of this game. Do the math.

I am to guess the Sysop made no rule or end date on how to end this game? I thought that was pretty much standard anymore? Oh well good luck to who ever the victor!

I did no such thing. Most games don' normally last this long (going by most recent history). I will come up with a solution that will determine the winner. That will be some variation of lives left, players left, grid, assets, ect. I do not have a time frame either to make this determination but would let the game go on until the 6 month point before it came to that.

Unless the 2 captains can agree on something prior o that.

This was Micro's edit, TBH hosting so Micro could play. Micro is not online ATM, but since he is/was playing that makes TBH the final decision maker.
