Either that, or re-randomize the nations without water races, or open it anew. I for one don't want to force anyone into it.

Yeah rerandomizing without water nations is a very good idea. I second this idea.

I for one object to re-randomizing for a number of reasons. #1, I doubt that I'm the only one who has put a substantial number of hours into trying to find a pretender setup that would work for indies 9, very difficult research.

#2, if they're re-randomized then the whole process starts over of telling people which nations they have, waiting for their pretenders, and then ... having other people drop out, starting the whole process over again.

Just let the people drop out, who cares if there is 1 aquatic nation or 2 or whatever. It's hard enough getting a game this size going, let alone the randomized, no-diplomacy bit, and it'd be nice to get this one started soon.
