As a general rule, strategic 1v1 games are only long when both players are bad and fail to capitalize on an early lead.

For example when he eliminated you from Russia not going straight to Hawaii with a stack was ridiculously dumb. He knew you were there, you'd killed him out of CA.

I never claim to be good at 1v1, but I know that I made sure he had no way to get to Japan.

"As a general rule, strategic 1v1 games are only long when both players are bad and fail to capitalize on an early lead."

When we are looking on "longest game" we are obviously not concerned about the general game.

Also, all the longest game could in many cases be prolonged, by playing until elimination or simply not eliminating at all.

Not to mention that the map is important, some map are simply bigger.

That being said, I like this thread. Therefore I am contributing some games to the list :)

Thank you for posting this, the first game is very entertaining and the chat is great, and the second one is just lol :)

Way too many blowfly games there. He seems to never realize when he's hopelessly lost.

Back in the live tournaments WGL used to host I had a couple long games:
42 turns with Fizzer himself in the 1st round, stalled out the tournament just slightly - https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=3346155
A 44 turn 2 hour marathon in the semifinal against gabriele, who knocked out Gnuffone, HHH and unknownsoldier earlier on - https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=4620462

you won't hear from me again, so you don't worry. Good luck in life and I hope you die in a fire :)

Wise words from Carlos. Made me smile, that
