I doubt it is this case.. If he would be ready to quit, he woud tell it.. Give him some time. IIRC he is travelling from time to time because of his job and sometimes he is a few days with no connection to net..

aha, looks like you know better about him.
it is just desperating to wait the turn for 3 days and get no response.

I'll be more patient, thanks jumper

Hi,
the funny thing is, that after Tomik forced his last allied oponent to surrender by the end of 43´, he seemed to me a bit tired of such inoccurate simulation of pacific war.. So he come up with so many house rules which were supposed to make the game as much realistic as possible in his point of view and to prevent building such Empire Japan you are building now by kicking his ass all around the map.. he is probaly desperate, but I doubt he would quit without a word. It doesn´t suit to him..
 
btw don´t you have a problem to aply all those house rules? Some of them are really special and "easy to forget".. We had a 2+2 game running under the same house rules and it was hard to remember and follow them all..

I forget once, or twice, don't remember.
 
Tomik also violate HRs one or two time. No big deal. Just make it clear.
 
I have seen more complicated HRs than this[;)]

After 5 days awaiting, President Tomik finally return to the game.

However, the bad news is coming one after another, it is just another bad day for President Tomik. Allies suffered several wave of heavy air attack and around 20 ships were sunk today.
