I am not talking about going last. I'm talking about in situations where others have taken all but one territory.

I often win going last or near last, only because I see who has a low level and plant myself right next to them.

Still, people should not lose xp for having a bad ISP or suddenly being kicked off the computer.

i agree - there are ways to program it so the site picks up wether they clicked to quite or if they crashed - would solve the internet side of it.

When I start and I'm last, all my land is seperate and my distribution is horrible, I don't want to sit for 30 minutes as I have no chance of winning the game.


Most of my games can last up to an hour. I don't want to sit there if I know I've lost.

Why did you change your avatar Norman? Your avatar WAS who you were. Without it... you're nothing...

I am not so concerned about it if two conditions are met:
1. They have 1 or 2 properties left.
and
2. It is not within the first 10 minutes of the game.

if you game already took one hour, than you had your chance to win, didn't you? Xp loss will there only to prevent people quitting immediately when they see they are last, I am thinking -50xp if you leave in first three turns?
