Proposal for New Online Multiplayer victory condition -- Anakin's Rule

If only one player is left on the other team and he no longer has any planets or colonizer ships and his allies disconnected -- Victory for winning team

from Sins Forums

 

Call it "Anakin's Rule" in honor of the player Anakin who minimized his game after he lost all of his planets and fleet, forcing the winning team to spend extra time mopping up the map after his last teammate had disconnected.  (Game started on Friday, July 10, around 6 pm U.S. EST.)  So, I propose the creation of a new victory condition for online multiplayer:

If the only people left connected to the game on one of the teams have no planets left and if they either have no colonizer ships left or fewer than, say 200 fleet supply worth of ships left then the other team wins the game and the Victory screen pops up.

Please explain how what Anakin did was good? And I think that's a good idea for an optional rule, but I always fight to the last man, so you won't see me playing like that.

I think the fact that its NOT good was the general point. This player, Anakin has obviously just for spite left the game running long after there was no possible way for him toe ven hurt his opponent. It was a pure move to force the other play to tediously jump from planet to planet destroying everything then bombing the planet itself.

The proposed change is, if I am reading this correctly, simply there to stop the mindless tedium once a clear winner has been decided.
