Playing for a Draw
Posted: Mon Mar 21, 2022 5:17 pm
HI all,
I'm relatively new to WebDip, (I've only played in 3 games). I'm in middle of a "Fall of the American Empire" game, it is 2007 or so, and there are 6 players left. The game isn't close to being stalemated, yet 4 players are voting for a draw, including players that are/were at war with each other. The four draw votes come from the countries with the most centers, 3rd most, tied for 4th (only 5 centers behind first) and from 1 center left (understandable).
Is this a common occurrence? It seems like a waste to me to spend all this time developing the game, and then just quit the game right as midgame hits. Is this just point farming taken to an extreme?
Thank you all.
