I was suppose to lunch my preemptive attack this turn but I miss the last turn so...whatever
I don't know the others and I don't sure if I should post in the Tech thread but I'm ready to concede to wetbandit.

Hey retep, it sounds like you're not enjoying playing at the minute - is it just burnout or something more? I know I couldn't manage three pitboss games at once. It'd be a shame not to have more from you in future...
Edit: Also, not William?

I can't respond you without spoilers for others games Harry but is not a burnout I still enjoy playing civ on my own.
WilliamLP can win this game is true but is more likely for wetbandit to win. I give thee short version of why because I just came from work and I tired.
- If the game continues in peace then wetbandit will out research WilliamLP. Right now willian may have the most GNP but is wetbandit who research the most beakers for turn. Plus he still have a golden age to use and after would still have 1 or 2 Great engineer. So pure economic wetbandit should win over willian.
- The other way for William to win would be to get more land trough war, and here is way William can't win.
If william declare war to wetbandit( not likely but posible) I would have to declare war to William to avoid that he get any advantage over me. If he declare war to Oxy (most likely) he could kill oxy very fast that is why I would have to declare war on william and attacking oxy would make him too exposed so maybe even wetbandit would attack william.
If he declare war to Molach (terrible idea) Molach can stop an invasion for a while but eventually he would fall and then wetbandit would probably join william against Molach and I would have to declare war to both of then but practically I would be only attacking william.
Willian declaring war on me won't give him any land so that is not going to happen.
Now why I this is tru for william but not wetbandit? Geography. I border william to the east and west, I can attack his core cities easily and his islands are not only close to mine but far away from his supply centers so I can snatch a few.
Wetbandit in the other hand is very difficult to attack for me, I could at best take 2 islands (4 cities) but no more, which won't hurt him much.
At least this is how I see things,[/spoiler] after me wetbandit has the best chance to win the game.

So you have a bigger chance of winning than wetbandit but you want to concede to him?

That's a shame. Will I be able to read about it when 13 is over? I'm looking forward to finding out what on earth happened there...

As far as I konw everyone wants to concede but there are afraid to said it, so that is why I said is fine conceding to someone so people won't keep playing because of me.
But if at least two people want to keep playing then we should keep playing to the end.
Don't take me wrong though I would continue playing at the best of my capabilities regardless.
Now if you think that I'm being pessimist or complaining pointlessly then I refer you to the second post of this thread

If you don't want to play the game then you can propose a draw. The game doesn't have to end in someone's victory.
