Yeah - I updated both of those.
This is what it used to say for PBEM8
Quote: WarriorKnight and Shoot the Moon gobbled up the other players, and then faced off in an uneven showdown that was made utterly anticlimactic by WK's devastating use of nukes.
Which I didn't feel was particularly accurate.
PBEM17's used to say
Quote: Novice & Space declared winner by default t68; game continued due to interesting settings and player ability. Nospace dragged back into the pack via a judicious but mean spirited dogpile. rego got attacked because he was too aggressive.

That PBEM 17 one looked pretty accurate before to me :neenernee
On a serious note, the anticlimactic part I think was worth keeping.

The part about nospace yes, the part about rego getting attacked for "being too aggressive" I contest.

Original is more accurate, and rego you weren't in the lead.
Also how Darrell thinks you weren't being aggressive is beyond me.

I never said that, I just said that wasn't why he was attacked. Everyone in this game was aggressive in one or more dimensions.

Don't know about you but I wanted him taken down a peg or two because his flank was the one I didn't want to defend at all in the game. And it worked out, even if I never had to play a turn past DD.

I should probably launch an attack from there then....
Oh wait, my navy is all at the bottom of the ocean

I wanted him taken out because it simplified the meta-game to something I knew I could handle. I saw Dave and Shoot as tighter with each other than me, but new that Nospace needed a partner, and that we'd likely be the stronger pair.
I guess this is now the post-game thread?

Oh we could always defend that flank, that was why we settled how we did: I was just lazy and didn't want to have to put the effort into playing turns involving a navy around there. Turns out it was easier to prod people into wars and give a few DD and rifles to it than to actually do any real thinking.
EDIT: No but I don't really see how any of this is "Post-game" considering I haven't opened a save in 3 months and don't know anything relevant.
