Fair enough, and thanks for the reply. It's just points, so I guess I'll live. Thanks for all your work on this thankless task.

I'm not going to challenge this decision, as I'm not really qualified to make this sort of decision. However, when the guilty party was terminated, all of his territories reverted to a teammate, turning a potentially close game into a bloodbath, with my team on the losing end. Forgive me ...

I'll give it a whirl

Hey, I'm not a girl, but I'd like to join anyway!

Game 7400988 is a win for Blitz, dbz, and american_ninja! Go, us!

Nicely done, sir. Enjoy it while you can, though-- I'm gunning to take it from you!

This whole thread is a thing of beauty. I'm proud to have been a part of it.

Is there still time to join? If so, I'm in!

All those games were touch and go up until the end...

Space Cowboys Rule! In Space!

A few days ago, my premium expired. Being the good CCer that I am, I promptly renewed. I got to wondering, though-- I had like 20 active games at the time. If I had reverted back to a free membership, what would have happened to the games past the first four?

Sign me up!

Second, if you have a relationship with another player outside one game (you're friends in real life, you're doubles partners, whatever), you're probably more likely to form an unspoken alliance, and you're probably more likely to treat it like a secret alliance.

I speak only for myself here, but ...

Rather than an unscientific opinion poll, you might want to wait until the Conquer Club World Championships tournament is resolved. That should pretty much answer the question.

I'm not sure I like being demoted to Sgt again, but I do like that new recruits can't join team games.

Assuming registration is still open...

Team name: Tokkotai
Team members: american_ninja, Zot
Preferred maps: Middle Earth (Zot), North America (american_ninja)
Division: no particular preferences, but regional sounds fun

We both prefer flat rate games over escalating, as we feel it rewards ...

When I make some sort of cease-fire, non-aggression, or other pact, I always put a clearly-defined limit on where it starts and ends. I usually name the final turn in which I will honor the treaty, but sometimes I put other conditions instead. In any case, I never break treaties because they have ...

Add me to the Japanese team, if you please.

Where else does one go to become a ninja?

Thanks for the invite! I'm ready to win it all!

Yeah, I think that's the secret. You need to balance your own conquests so you get the bonus armies, but you want to weaken the bad guys as soon as you can.

seriously, I love it when I can eliminate deadbeat players before they miss that third turn.

Being from Israel you'd assume "honour" would be high on the integrity scale. Apparently not. Anyone who agrees with Shai's cowardly tactics is a complete tool.

Wait, what? Did you seriously just write that? Are we talking about Conquer Club (an online version of Risk), or some kind of Hatfield ...

its irritating when its suicide vengeance in a team game

Sure. It's also irritating in a standard, every-man-for-himself game as well. However, irritating shouldn't result in a flurry of negative feedback and the-page long forum discussions about honor and strategy.

What's all this tripe about "honor" and "technically not breaking the rules"? It's right there on the front page: "Use diplomacy to coordinate a group assault on the game leader." How is what Shai did different? Why is this dishonorable when it's the very first thing you see when you open this site ...
