I was Germany. I'm really sad how this game was ruined, so instead of writing an EoG, which I would gladly do, I have to write about why I chose to continue. After France's NMR I voted Draw,Cancel immidiately, later I figured out, hell, let's kill him and draw after. Sadly Turkey was already losing, since italy made a successful Lepanto, so Turkey just decided to CD, which ruined the game further. I'm really angry to both of them, because I had a really good chance to be part of a 3-way. Our alliance with England was perfect and nor him, neither I deserved a ruined game. At teh very end we misunderstood eachother with england, I don't thin he wanted to stab me, he was expecting me to get 2 SCs I guess.

I personally decided I will not tolerate any NMR/CD anymore, especially I will not cancel any game, because somebody decides to force others to cancel, with his NMR. Turkey's move was very unsportmanlike, even though I understand his motivation. I'm pretty sure he will say it was unsportmanlike from us to not vote cancel.

Then came the Russian NMR which made things even worse, at this time I just wanted to save Austria (I tried to support him into warshaw, sadly he didn't take it), kill France, and draw. I wanted to kill Russia, but I figured I cannot do that without losing Austria, who was a clear loser on Turkey's CD and didn't deserve to lose 1000 .

One more word about France's NMR, and why I continued. Before the NMR, it was obvious France can grab an English SC and he will lose Brest and retreat to Gasc/Pic. I moved to Gasc, to prevent his retreat there. Nor me, neither England made moves as we saw/knew he was going to NMR. (I was sleeping) Bottom line: With or without the NMR France, Germany and England wouldn't have been in any different position. The only benefitor was Russia, for a moment, because France supported him into Norway. So at the end of the day, nothing was different as it would have been if France had moved.

For the record:
As a host of the game, I contacted mods twice. First after France's NMR, asking them to register who was who, in case we cancel, I'd like to know, and I wanted them to secure the information before all of it gets lost. (I was already aware who was who, so I knew, but I wanted to be sure)
2nd, I contacted the Mods to investigate threadID=873875 and possible PMs, because I figured the French NMR had some repercussions both in the Forum and in PMs. I don't think any major violation has happened which affected the game itself, but since it's not my call to decide whether any of us has violated communication rules (including myself) I wanted the mods to decide, check on the thread and PMs.

Bottom line:
I still cannot decide where is the line between continuing/cancelling. Where's the point where an NMR should cause cancel, where is where it should cause Draw, or simply just continue. The thread above was about this. Personally, I'm insulted when I put a lot of effort into a game, my time, my online availability and someone ruins it. I cannot tolerate any NMR, regardless the reason, and most of all, I will NOT save a single point to anyone who NMRs, especially when it is intentional. I guess my resigned line missing on my profile shows pretty well, how serious I am about this. It's a bad situation, but if we cancel each and every case when someone NMRs, who will stop them to use it as a diplomatic tool, to escape from losing. It's quite obvious France would have lost without the NMR, just as Turkey. I'm satisfied with this 5-way draw, I think those got out, who would have lost anyways for sure, and I'm sad we couldn't play till the end with England. :(
