Re: MP Game - Anyone interested in a *really* slow game? *full and running**

Seems like it takes a lot out of the game, since pile-on is automatic, rather than learned, and then persuaded.

Well, probably most importantly - graphs can't be turned off with games on mosehansen; Illwinter hasn't given command line arguments to turn them off, iirc.
You're right though - in most games, if one nations gets too huge (twice or more as many provinces as the next largest), everyone seems to dogpile them, rapidly reducing them to the bottom of the pack.
Then again - how much of that is the graph, and how much is that the person over-expanded and never consolidated her gains?
