RR Boost game
Hey all. Advertising on forum for another player. He started a game for those of you looking to get a few more phases in to get an "A" rating. Classic WTA gunboat with custom start. Minimum buy-in, 10 days to start, 2 days a phase.

Concede Button
In light of the new option to change the total SCs needed for a win, I was wondering if it would also be possible to add a 'concede' button in the row with draw, cancel, etc.

What's a better name for the button: Concede or Surrender?

Surrender makes it sound like you'll be instantly evicted from the game if you press it. I reckon Concede is better.
Oh! What if the would be winner declares victory *then* an "accept defeat" button appears for the rest of the players?

Wouldn't that be kind of asking for button spamming? Would you have to have over a certain amount of SCs before the button appeared?
Call it the GG Button.
I was more joking...

Droidippy (Android Diplo App) lets you set your intent to Victory, Draw, or Surrender. When you select Draw you pick which countries you are willing to draw with. So if 4 powers are left and one country selects surrender, and a triple all set intent to draw with their 2 allies the game would end in a draw between the 3 powers. Also when selecting who to Draw you must include yourself, so its possible then to surrender to specific powers.

It should be called- "I Give Up" button.

'I give up' sounds like it's an analogy to 'I QUIT!!'. not what we want to promote (IMHO).

I think Concede is fine - it says 'I give my points to another player who is clearly going to win, provided other players agree'

Surrender in my mind is similar to an 'I give up button', and might lead to confusion.

^ I second Kaner's view, I think concede is a good name for the option

Ridiculously high reliability requirements
Hey, everyone? I don't think we need to insist on every game involving people who've already played 500 phases and never even missed one. I think anyone with a reliability rating over 90% is probably perfectly reliable and maybe just once or twice had a problem with their internet connection.
It's a neat feature but let's not go overboard hmmm?

Oli - I think there is a problem with pirates.
gameID=7059 - Northwest Caribbean went to Port Royal and Port Royal went to Northwest Caribbean - no bounce.
Surely there should have been some kind of stand off?
Thanks for looking into this.
