The rules for being admitted talk about "unjustified surrenders". What kind of surrender is "justified"?
Asking because, in the very first game I joined, where most of the players knew each other but I joined from a forum post and knew noone else participating, I am one of the three powers remaining, in decline as the other two allied against me. Of the other two, one is stronger and could easily gain a solo win next turn, but instead it seems they are trying to engineer a 17-17 two way draw (with the stronger power feeding centres at the other end of the map to the weaker one), which of course will take several extra turns, especially as I am not going to cooperate. I am completely fed up with their behaviour and would happily surrender so that they click through without my participation, but don't want this game to work against my memvership here (as I joined exactly to look for games where such things do not happen).
