If the alliance remains then there really isn’t much point in going on with the game. It would be as Tries pointed out a waste of time. Playing Diplomacy without the threat of someone stabbing you “because there can be only one” removes the essence of what this game is all about. ---

If I was still in the game, I would have no issue with a long-term 2 player alliance-they reaped the benefits from it and divided and conquered their opponents, more power to them. I would have a problem with them declaring victory while both are short of the required # of centers for a solo and are demanding that everyone else capitulate to them so they can share in a “2 way draw.” Talk is cheap, if you think you can win, just go out and do it-IMHO it is still possible for the other powers to get their crap together and stop them, but even this past turn I noticed some squabbling between them here and there (and the chronic civil disorders don’t help). ---

I would have a problem with them declaring victory while both are short of the required # of centers for a solo and are demanding that everyone else capitulate to them so they can share in a “2 way draw.” I haven’t demanded that. I’ve expressed a willingness to play. 🙂 My “So do you surrender?” posts have been in response to “This is bullshit!” and “There isn’t much of a point in playing” type posts. ---
