Hi Diplomats,
I'm here to post a very important message:
Diplomacy is a team sport. In other words, just because you are dead, or about to be, doesn't mean you should just quit.
You know what it does to your allies when you quit?
Their enemies get a free feast on your supplies; their enemies get a free ticket to use all their armies against your allies rather than dividing them; the allies, who thought to spent some time chilling on diplomacy, suddenly found out that they've wasted that time because their allies ditched them...
how much trouble is it to just finalize your moves or do something useful?
If life is diplomacy, I'm sure half of you here will be already dead!
It's never about just give up and live easy - life is not easy, and we should never treat it as.
So please, next time when you play, play till you are completely wiped out...who knows, you might even be the "survivor."
