| is the winner the one who owns 51% of the galaxy or the player with the highest score when a player gets 51% | ||

| Yes, that is a concern.
I just came last in a game that was 51% to end. I had over 51% of worlds!!! I knocked out 9 positions and had 7 homeworlds and ready to take 2 more soonish. I WUZ ROBBED! I made sure that LAST player will win, if you have 51% and not last player, then play on until you are. | ||

| Jim: Yes, indeed, you were robbed in a game you played masterfully. I actually think that we should kick that one up to Dave and let him take a look at it. The 51% game ending parameter needs to be VERY CLEAR FOR ALL as it directly affects how you play your game with your various positions.'
Jim deserves first place in that game and I think the result should be corrected. I also think that maybe only RSW members that have attained a certain amount of game play should be allowed to set up games. We all suffer when a game is set up with awful parameters from the jump. (Would someone please once and for all eliminate zero pop worlds from our existence? LOL) | ||

| Isn't the endgame parameter set up above the exact same as the RADIUS game we just concluded??? I would wait and make sure that that is adjusted correctly before starting it. | ||

| I was trying to make a long lasting game, but yes the parameters seem same as for Radius.
I will drop out and make a game that is last player wins, no arguments then. | ||

| Can this game be cancelled then as we all agree the set-up was not something we all wanted to go through again? Also, we need to make VERY CERTAIN that game parameters and maps are well-chosen and orchestrated. We have one of the worst. maps. ever. in SCENERY. This sort of thing will discourage newer players. | ||
