I'm in for a long time to go. I like the way it is going now. Some games take longer than others, but like the diversity. So the mix can stay as it is as far as I'm concerned.
I don't know if this has been mentioned already.
The continents with bonuses aren't displayed on World 2.1 maps I'm playing. On all other maps the continents are displayed nicely in the table, but not on world 2.1.
I have the latest version of Bob installed annd did all the uninstalling ...
Getting the deadbeat's territories and armies is already more of a bonus than just the numbers themselves. Suddenly a continent that was held by 2 players, is now held by just one, also giving potential bonusses.
We have 1 person (g5hall) that forgot to join 1 game and who is inactive in the other 4 (missed 2 turns)
he has been pm'ed already, but no response so far.
EDIT: g5hall has now officially deadbeated all games. The last one won't be joined either, so please advise how to continue
How about a random placement of the armies at a missed turn?
This way the player that misses a turn still has his armies (though maybe not where he wants them). And there is almost no risk of a big come back after 2 missed turns.
