This game was freaking annoying. We had 3 players that would continually lag out, leaving me with all of their units. I would build the right units to help win north, and then RIGHT as I start a masterful attack the lagging player would regain control over his units and screw it all up.

The 3 lagging players caused the game to play at 0.6 speed after the first 10 minutes. Hence the ridiculous 85 minute play time.

A back player spent the first 30 minutes spamming fusions, all right next to each other. After the first 3 fusions I told him to stop placing them so close together. So he builds 10 more, right on top of each other. He watched his teammate get overrun by jack and pyros and did nothing to help the dude.

Vulte, now level 54, just literally learned after this game that puppies can multiply. He asked why I kept telling him to move puppies into wreckage field. While I had temporary control of his labs and units, I queued a bunch of puppies to run a complicated pattern through a wreckage field to eat it all. First thing he does upon regaining control of his units: move all puppies out of wreckage field. ಠ_ಠ

I really wanted to do some clever stuff with the units, by after playing 60 minutes of stupid lagging game I just didn't feel like it. Annoying.

If it hadn't been for bobbins doing so well on sea (plus a well-timed nuke from me that took out most of East's sea) there's no way we could have won this game. Lance also lead a clever raid with an Athena + Sneaky Pete + raider spam that took out a pair of singularities in a single boom.

Side note: this is the first "torture test" game I've played using the multithread build of spring. Noticed no problems and didn't desync.

Antelope: Out of curiosity, what are your specs and how much better did you find performance to be compared to Spring singlethreaded?
