Feel free, I'm tired of looking for subs for this game and repeat my offer to turn over admin duties. I don't check the staling data anymore but since you do Calmon maybe you want to take over?

In fact, I'd be happy to end this game at any point given the unusually high player turnover, stales... And I think R'lyeh is doing pretty well but its just not that fun playing in a game where players are continually vanishing, leading to a lack of balance.

Yes, I agree! I demand that one nation next to me starts staling or turns AI!!!

Well I submited my turn, but it was as good as a stale, in fact it would have been better if it indeed was a stale turn.
This is the 3 time that damn ice devil escapes death.

Apart from TC and Marignon the stales don't look too bad for this game.

It's a shame that KO staled a lot though. I guess he's a busy man.

At one point or another, I have had to find subs for or send messages to urge turn taking from Atlantis (before excellent Jarkko), TC, Hoburg, Marignon (now), and Man. That's 1/3 of the players and I don't think any have ever bothered to post a message - just vanish or start staling. While I think most games have 1-2 players vanish or stale, its pretty unusual IMHO to have 1/3 including nations that seem to be doing well. Then throw in the fact the point of this game, which I didn't organize, was to tell a story, not necessarily win. Its pretty sad. When I said I'd admin, I figured I'd change the hosting interval every now and then, not have to be sending PMs to prod players to play or trying to finding subs every other week.

Anyway, my rant is over. I am stuck in this game and now that I have vented I will see if I can find someone to turn TC AI, and sub for Mari.

That is pretty unfortunate. The admin should not have to find subs, people should do that themselves. I find it quite rude when they don't. Unless it's KO of course, sinec he's no doubt working on a new game for us!

TC is now controlled by the artificial intelligence co-designed by its player so the transition should be seamless

Still a pity. It was a good story he started. And I hoped to not need to attack TC right now... Maybe at least some sub could be found?
