St. Veil 2nd Match Review

We fought well but ultimately lost. The reason I don't feel too bad about it is purely because I lost to my own design. The opponents' outcomes were also predetermined. Even with a passionate whale playing solo, who went around destroying everything, they eventually got stuck exactly where my design intended. In fact, I had already accounted for their potential participation by blocking all variables and then withdrawing from the alliance. There's no reason to act childishly with the opponent just because feelings are hurt. Honestly, if they had participated in the first match, we wouldn't have won that either. And I have at least a 30% stake in them not participating this time. So, I feel like I've done quite a bit of dirty work to my friends in the current RPO alliance of World 187. Looking at everyone from the former alliance this time, I just got the impression that if you don't have the capacity, you just don't have it, to put it crudely.
