How about if you get a bunker type special if someone uses a spy against you?

LL, pencil me in for now, I give you a solid confirmation on Monday. This last game left a bad taste in my mouth.

How about a simple immunity from all espionage for a turn if a spy has been used against you the turn before? (Although this might lead to allies spying each other to get the immunity at will)

No, as far as I understand, G means you have three specials in the beginning of the game which you can use whenever you like. In my suggestion the immunity would be granted automatically, any number of times.

G was in relation to Spaced's suggestion, yours was X-posted with mine.
Yours is similar to option C, but I thought it would need 2 turns before immunity could be achieved so that spying had some advantages.

Why don't you like G Skanky?

You have a number of Gs and how you use them is up to you. So if you used them up in previous attacks, don't come whining to me that an alliance has bogged you down for many turns until they were ready and then destroyed you (All these yous are not addressing you Skanky, but any player. Only the first question is addressed to you.)

Spies locking up an enemy favours those who have stockpiled spies early on.
Anti-spy bunkers favours those who don't use them up early on.

Both reward the same type of behaviour and once the bunkers are used up, allow spy locking infinitely.

The number of Gs should be enough to allow the player to go in and attack those who are spy-locking.

Okay, perhaps I'm not being clear...you don't start with any of the G "specials". You get one when someone spies on you.

Think of it as the spy is captured and then brainwashed to be a counterspy, but only good for that. This would prevent the lock-ups no matter when in the game they occured.

B has the majority. Cooperative victories won't be allowed.

Although G seems like a clear winner, that's not the case cause we have multiple choice here. We'll have a runoff with D and G.

So, a new poll is: Please decide between D and G.

But either choice means (again) that a spy can be build and used in the same turn, isn't it?

IOW an attack block can still happen like I did once before.
