Actually Race, you are not telling the truth. You were accused of cheating in that game, and I defended you. It is all in the thread, if somebody cares to check it. I did not believe such accusations should be made without proof.I have never publicly accused you of the things many believe you did. However, when you were unable to make a deal with me and my TA's, you and all your TA's just up and quit despite owning almost half the map. My conclusion from that was that if you had to fight for it, you didn't want it. Either way, it ruined the game for all the players still playing, as we spent the next 25 turns fighting the computer. I don't know to this day whether you cheated or not, and am not accusing you of doing so, but you and all your TA's dropping at the same time was one of the poorest examples of sportsmanship I have witnessed in Victory! At least two long term players, who are excellent players with past wins, have quit playing because of that game.
