Only in the EB forums would anyone consider a 364 turn win a "blitz".
I'd like to play a slower game but with RTW diplomacy in the state it's in I don't find it much fun. I found a pace I'm comfortable with and had a good time fulfilling a personal goal of mine (actually completing an EB game, as usually once I hit that point where I can't lose I start a new one). It is a game after all.
