Looking at the map Russia only seems to have 9 centres. 9 is a long way
short of 18. You don't need to see the diplomacy to be able to work that
out.

  I am always struck by the bravado of people who are not playing is a game
to think they know enough to comment.  Speaking as someone actually in the
game (and who did not propose the end-vote), the end-of-game proposal makes
perfect sense in the context of the game.

  Even though the game is only 6 turns old, I have literally hundreds of
emails from this game to provide a broader context.  I'm sure most other
players do too, totaling over 1000 emails most likely.  To think you
understand the internals of the game by reading a call for an end vote is
like looking at a still shot from a movie and saying you know the plot.

  However, as the game is still going on, it would be silly for me to
explain all the reasons here.
