Here's my resignation. Feel free to gloat about me being the first player eliminated.

Here's my motivation:
MWs have appeared and have nuked my production.
They are close to both of my bases.
I only have one scout patrol, and without the forests those formers were about to plant, no infrastructure to build a second.
With that much of a drop, I cannot defeat Kody's incoming force.

Damn it, with those Forests and Planned I could have outcranked the impact rovers so badly.

I'm going to go start a fight with someone.
Turn bloody well sent to Jamski.

Mindworms, damn it.
It had to be ****ing mindworms.

I'd have been guarding my formers with a scout patrol, but the mind worm only appears to be 10% damaged, and it has a partner.
The Scout would have also perished.

****ing mindworms.

You've sent me YOUR turn by mistake. I closed my eyes and hit escape - you should really set a password.

Please resend MY turn.

Thankyou.

* Jamski reads EN's posts to see what the problem is*

Ah... you're quitting? Why the hell? I've continued PBEMs after losing one of the starting 2 colony pods. Now THAT is worth complaining about.

Now stop whinging - you lose units sometimes and there's crap all you can do about it. Next time plant a sensor near your formers so worms won't spawn there, or take the chance like I do.

You bloody well play your turn properly and post it on to me like a man.

Pah - running off to quit as soon as the slightest upset comes along. God knows how you can cope with real life

Get back in there, you wimp

Enigma, how do you know Kody is comming to get you? Perhaps he's trying to get someone first so that he can be stronger when he matches wits with you? You don't want to give up before you even start do you? Come on I started this pbem partially for you you know that. You are a fighter remember?

You have formers, perhaps the only one in Planned, you are in the tech lead. You could easily produce a scout to guard your bases. What is a couple years set back when you think about 200 years in the future? Come back and fight with us!

Dammit, I still need my turn though. If he does want to run off like a coward, then he should at least self-destruct his bases and send on the save.

I don't know what to say....

Currently I have zero units heading in your direction. I'm not even planning on meeting you anytime soon, because I highly doubt any useful trading will occur since I don't have any techs you want, and you seem rather standoffish calling me your main opponent all the time.

As for the mindworms that's pretty bad luck, and if it makes you feel any better. Jamski actually was playing 2 factions and lost the colony pod for 1 faction. That means he actually only had a 1/4 loss of overall power, opposed to a 1/2 loss of power as his post originally suggested.

If he has no password set as you indicated, I can replay my turn and do things in his...

But that's too soon to decide on. Let's first see if he really means it.

The no password thing I guess is because Enigma had resigned.

If Enigma is pursuaded by us and plans to come back, and if he didn't save before he resigned then he would have to replay his turn. And he may not get two worms.

Ah, this is tricky stuff indeed...
Then if he doesn't sent on a valid turn to Jamski, we have to work by the CMN. Is it even possible to forward a valid turn (press 'end turn') when a player has resigned?

What do you mean? Somebody else take over Enigma's faction?

	Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

No, that's not what I meant. Working by the CMN means then that he opens 'nigma's turn and selfdestruct the whole rimram. The 'forward a valid turn' thingie is that perhaps the popup where the player can 'save and exit' to the next players doesn't popup anymore. Don't know this since I haven't experienced this situation before.

It happens.

Ok, shall we agree the game is better without him, I'll open the turn and do my very best not to learn anything about the map, and then self-destruct everything.

Or shall we wait?

I sent an e-mail about 10 hours ago, but no response yet.

Oh yeah, that's right John, but it still wasn't the situation you'd wish for. You simply play on though, and hope the luck balances out. When the other faction hits the b-drone limit, they can gift a CP or two to the first faction, and it will be ok... I hope

Darn him, why couldn't he sent the turn to the CMN if he wanted to resign.

I say wait a bit till more opinions are heard, but for me you can do as you suggest when a majority stated so.

	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Well I thought that in a pbem if somebody were to resign, he needs to first self-destruct all his bases first. But Enigma might have been in a bad mood so he might have forgotten about it.

I say let's give Enigma a day to think it over. If he still decide that he will resign, then perhaps Geo can send Enigma's turn to CMN and we'll go from there. Although I still hope Enigma can come back.

Think Enigma wouldn't want someone to take over his faction, that's why he resigned rather than calling someone to take over. I suppose he would perfer the self destruct if he isn't going to be playing anymore.

My current vote is fence sitter, that way we've got an odd number of votes with 5 players voting. Anyway I'm kindof torn both ways, the more selfish side tells me it's good Enigma is gone and the other side thinks it's a bad thing.

In Enigma's defence, it's rather rare finding people that average turns with less than 6 hours. I think the average between all regular players is more like 12-16 hours. Not counting people that start getting kicked out of games. This game just seems to have a faster than usual mob.

Also an observation on Enigma's behaviour. When he quits something I've noticed he tends to avoid posting for a bit. Basically that's what happened with the police state game and the ACDG.

So extrapolating we'll probably hear from him in 5 days if he doesn't have an interest anymore in this game. Otherwise he'll probably talk to us tomorrow when he wakes up (about 2-7 hours from now).
