No.
Quite the contrary. Example: he took over the Hippos in FFH1 and played them with great skill and fairness until death.

Perhaps you should rethink your attitude to his questions. And consider if he might have a point or not.


PS: I find it great what yu did with this mod and until now I have followed ths game with joy. I thnk a lot of the problems arise from the 'I expect something to work that way and then it works completly different.'-situation. Having the refferee and the rulemaker be one person and as a compettitor can blow beeing annoyed about somethng out of proprtion fast.

What? The point being that I supposedly bend the rules to suit my ongoing game, and don't fix bugs because they hurt Iskender? Seriously?

That is a very human emotion, but it is an incorrect emotion.

Quote:Of course, I fully expect Iskender to ragequit after opening his turn.

Called it.

So he took them over when he already knew he wasn't going to win? Has he faced a situation before like this where he was in good papers but then got dogpiled and his chances for victory slipped away through his fingers grasping in vein?

No.
He hasn't played many games (IIRC, but done amazing on each, winning a game with a very weak civ in ffh5, and being killed by a scout T5).
Its not the way id think he'd react in such a situation though.

Hmm ... Perhaps the mod shouldnt have been patched until *after* the game reached its conclusion?
