As R'lyeh, I have seen very little evidence of Bandar's dominance beyond the number of globals that they have up. And it is likely that 1 or 2 of those globals are going to be coming down in the near future.
It would feel strange to concede while my own nation is healthy and starting to roll.
Either way, I'll put the game back on hold until it's sorted out. (Especially since this would be a very good turn for me for Bandar Log to stale. It would let me recover from a stupid mistake.)
Pythium has no problem declaring K the winner and moving on. K has our capitol and if was concentrating would have crushed my pathetic little remnants(although we are growing extremely well right now, taking Bandar Log territory and trying to take back Pythium proper).
Maybe someone is pressuring him so he can't really mindhunt me out of existence but I'm not sure about that.
