How much of the map do you usually conquer?
While reading Youngie's thread, I've become curious as to how far into a MTW campaign most people actually get. How many people prefer to conquer the entire map, how many of us call it a day once they've gotten the 60% victory, etc.?
Obviously people who normally play GA mode aren't really going for a specific percentage of the map per se, but it'd still be interesting to know how much of the map you generally own as well.

Usually less than 60%, though if I reach 60% I will usually go a little further.
This campaign (VI Welsh/Hard/Huge units) has now got to the point where it has ceased to be interesting. The point is that I can probably win the map easily and it's just a case of blitzing the last few provinces.

Mostly less than 60% here too! Although, I've been over the 60% 'lesser' win, I find more challenging to start again as the faction you wiped out first in the previous game. Just to prove that i'm better than the AI
I've never conquered 100%, been close, but the 1453 end point, civil wars and papal re-emergences always foil me.

I usually go 100% out of force of habit. But I usually am happy, I take a break at 60%

I almost always take the 60% win, though I've gotten to 100% domination twice, once with the Turks, and once with the Hungarians.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

If there was no Civil War events, I would go for 100%, otherwise, 60% will do me fine.
