[NO PLAYERS]Here's lurking at you, kid.

[GermanJoey]

Looks like Elum is running away with the game, and Whosit, CH (obviously, since within a turn of taking over for Cal), and Adrien, the #2, #3, and #4 in this game, have all independently called for a concession to him. That's the ballgame then, right?

[Krill]

Elum won the game when he attacked Whosit and pushed him back to the bottleneck. Everything else has been going through the motions.

[Commodore]

Yeah, um, so who do we need to persecute to get this official?

[Commodore]

CH called concession where?

[GermanJoey]

Every single post he's ever made in that thread, I think.

edit: here's one where he was explicit http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...#pid540952

Adrien's concession: http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...#pid544942

Whosit's concession: http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...#pid543851
Agent didn't concede in his thread, but I know from steam conversations that he wants out
Dreylin & Ipac are dying and have the only goal of not being the next eliminated: http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...01&page=83

Elum also thinks the game is pretty over, for what it's worth: http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...03&page=11

I sent PMs to Whosit and CH to confirm.

[GermanJoey]

Whosit did confirm, though ironically, CH has changed his mind:

No, I don't think I'm ready to concede just yet--at least not without one last attempt to turn the tide. Of course, part of that is actually getting back into the game and understanding just how dominant Elum's position is.

I'm glad I confirmed it rather than posting something in the tech thread.

In the hiatus I forgot to mention I'm going to need a sub/replacement. I hate to do this but I'm going away for 4 weeks of holidaying. I assumed the game would be done by now and with my exams I lost track of dates.

So, 1 civ, perfect for a newer player to mess around and practice some war making with. There is effectively no local opposition due to the balance of powers and my MFG and tech lead. Anyone is free to log in, even if you are just curious and have no interest in taking over, you are Augustus and there is no password.

There is no pressure to preform, I ceased any micro weeks ago and am pursuing a sloppy domination win/concession. I will be around to ease the transition if needed.

Well this isn't the way to restart things. Elum has such a significant lead here (as far as I can tell) that it would be a shame for anyone to sub and lose it. That would be kind of a sour bite to end the meal. Only CH has a chance to catch him and he's on the wrong side of the map. I guess we'll see what happens.

I'd ask the players if they want to concede.
