Looking at my cluster channel and gal channel for xmas round now says that has happened in this round too.
Thank you ruiners, you make pa worth paying for!!!

Political skill has always been important. You can have the worst planet but wield a tremendous amount of power through being able to persuade and organise people. In this kind of round I'm not sure why people bothered, but they valued it enough to want to win it like that I guess, so it's hard to criticise.
The problem that we have, particularly in a small universe is that these big naps, even between two alliances are effectively the same as the old blocks that used to stagnate play and make the game a zero contest. While everyone wants to win, people need to be conscientious of this.
