    I didn't threaten to quit, only that if you thought I had benefiited unduly from the previous player mistakes then you would simply have to ask and I would quit... If that was not quite clear, it may due to the fact that I'm the "cheating French" around these parts...

    I didn't require special treatment neither just the taking into consideration the fact that I had not to suffer from other players mistakes...

    I'm fully aware of that... and that is why if players are thinking I acted out of malice, then I am willing to quit, however much I would like to go on...

    Same here... From my point of view, I couldn't bear to be considered a cheater and that's the reason why I have driven all my adoptees towards their ultimate doom...

    I said that given the impression that you only had 1 adoptee, and it would still be up to the game master to make the final verdict, not any single player.
    However, note that I also said "just don't adopt any more", but you adopted many more, thus creating a situation of mistrust I suppose that Ignoramus will hopefully resolve.

    I had only one at the time...

    That was over three months ago and I admit that the rule had gotten out of my head...

    As to the "many more" adoptees they were only adopted in the last two turns... after the defeat of England...

    Isn't Ignoramus the gamesmaster, what does he have to say?

    Yes, I think he is at least the GameStarter if not GameMaster...

    And I very much fear his ruling seeing how I destroyed England in game

    Tristan, you may have forgotten, but you've already have gained an advantage over other factions. The rules were made perfectly clear at the start, and you've already severly breached them. You'll have to get rid of all your generals(including the two you've had to start with).
