What are the crowns, exactly.
We were talking about them in the thread for that other game you hosted for us (the one you didn't join).

The crowns are victory points. Collect 12 to win the game :-D

What - you get your wish, and now you complain?

 It's a problem with many of the maps, imo (for instance, Aran is in desperate need of some official #nostarts, the MiddleEarth map is, etc), and only excerbated when you put 17 nations into a map that is really suited for fewer.
Having capitals as VPs just brings us back to another serious flaw, imo, which is that capitals should not show up as VPs. For that matter - VPs should need to be scouted, or at least a switch for it.

And we're off to a very fun start. The first turn is done. I prophetize early death to at least one waternation.

Whoops, didn't realize I was holding turn 2 off for about a full day or so. Sorry, people. First time experiencing the miracle of quickhost. First proper multiplayer game, too.
At least the score graphs say I'm not the only nation still stuck with one province.
