I'll take barbarians, because it probably means it's still early in the game and I haven't wasted to much time in a lost cause.

Many of you probably know that Clash song :
"When they kick at your front door, how you gonna come ?
With the hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun ?
When the law break in, how you gonna go ?
Shot down in the pavement or waiting in death row ?"

It's the end that's tragic, not the way it happens.

Or as another song says:

"One way or the other,
Fool Card brother,
This is going to be the first time."

I usually don't stick around for the bitter end. It's a game! If you have no chance to win, start over. Even someone with low self-esteem would be hard pressed to enjoy getting whomped. Remember the basic rule: "If you are not having fun, it isn't a game." However "serious" you have to be, however hard you have to concentrate, the idea is to enjoy the challenge.

Of the four choices, the only losses I've had have been B and D. The "other" is when I get jumped early by another civ. Once in a while, the barbs will weaken me enough before writing (with its diplo to buy barbs), for me to go down. Elsewise, I play on until I see I'm WAY too far behind or until the end, with or without an actual victory.

do i even need to say i'd rather go down in a massive nuke war . but that's never happened. every time i lose in either sp or mp, its cause someone managed to land a spaceship before i manage to f@#k up his capital.
