Is it over? The game is barely moving. Are the other players tapping out?

Probably next turn? Once REM converts this turn into the blowout he's anticipating, they'll likely raise the white flag. Scooter is basically giving Dreylin this turn and possibly next to do something.

See post #329 in your thread in Pitboss 18 and it will make sense.

I failed to take Bacchus's hill city after losing eight 65%-71% battles in a row. I hate the Protective trait so much. frown

None of these players are using a Pro leader, have been able to build any of the types of units involved in that battle, and finally this game isn't using RB/RtR mod. Whatever you're trying to say makes less sense than ever.

I'm just saying that they failed to break your record of "worst combat luck". 0.35^8 is actually lower than 0.01% so it isn't even close.

Just ignore pants-on-head-insane MJW.

We need to call this?

Well, let's see:

REM - winning.
Scooter - concession
BGN/Xenu - happy to stop
Pindicator - not sure? Wants to die painfully
Dreylin - He keeps wavering between concede and Hail Mary. Which side of the line is he on today?
Donovon - no data
Gaspar - Dead.

So I think it comes down to Pindi/Donovon mostly. With a side of 'how serious is Dreylin about conceding?'
EitB 25 - Perpentach

It's a pity that this will end just after PB 34 sign ups closed. I'd like to see some of the teams here pleying there.

Agreed. Although aside from scooter I'm not sure if anyone else has stated interest (or in REM's case, said 33 is the sole reason they aren't joining). I would only consider reopening signups if aside from scooter, someone else was also interested and even then this game needs to end ASAP.

Well, just extend signups or do an A/B version of the game with the same map. It seems like the game is actually quite large so running 2 games at the same time might be better.

Between the mildly bad morale, time commitment, and the fact that not a single team here do I believe would complain (everyone thinks REM has won), I think it's time to call it. Dreylin's statment that "I won't be asking for advicea anymore, the rest of the game is probably me reacting to REM burning everything" (reworded by me)...

Stick a done in it IMO.
