DeloS didnt deserve to win because he had no value, and therefore was not an alliance player, couldnt even cover a defence call.
Firstly, this would only be relevant for alliances which have defence calls. Secondly, whether or not a person plays for the benefit of their alliance is a matter for the alliance to decide. Your opinion is entirely irrelevant. Hence my '**** you', for your presumption that we should care about your opinion.

The fact that Caj didn't set up attacks on the #2 is an example of precisely why he didn't win. Planetarion is supposed to be a war game, in which players attempt to maximise their own scores at the expense of others. For Caj the calculation must have been something like this: "I'm ahead by just enough that I can win without taking any risks". Therefore he decided to try to coast in at the end, without losing any roids and without attempting to eliminate any of his rivals. As a result, there were plenty of people who stood to gain from his defeat, and they made sure that he lost. If Caj had struck first, by fleet-catching his rivals or ensuring that his lead was larger, then he probably would have won. Being #1 is about being the meanest, baddest bastard in the universe, the guy everyone is afraid of. Caj didn't inspire that fear in anyone.
