RESOLVED: SP boosting

Some players make private games only for themselves to boost their SP, eg. "world map game and capture x's capital", and cap all the countries for sp and x as the last one.
Is it possible to let games start only if there are two players in the game?
Edit: I hope this right board

Thanks for the concern, but this is taken care of already. I guess its not well publicized though.

Would it be possible to ensure that a game cant have only one player in it. so even if the allow joining until week has expired but the game only has one player in it then people can still join until at least two peaople are playing.

This will prevent people playing games with only themselves in it to earn "Free" SP points

Several things already take care of that. First, you get 10 times less SP playing against Neutrals. Second, you can't win if you're playing alone, and we probably should make it impossible to surrender either. Also, if someone wishes to spend their time in this manner, we don't mind - I wouldn't consider it an easier way to earn SP anyway.

Lol best way to get sp is to fight players ... and I agree if they spend that time let them get the sp... its not like its much

What if theyre auto-making infantry in every city to get a crimson medal?

Go for it lol I don't have time to do that but its using your brain to get sp and I don't see anything wrong with it

Well hey, since they nerfed sp, crimsons don't really help out lol.

Lol I know

The only one i know some people probably still do needs 2 players.

you empty all you cities, let the second player take them all (on a whole world map it could be 100+ cities a turn, making huge sp)
the other player does the same thing, for countless turns, resulting in huge sp, and medals can also be abused while your doing it.
