I would also agree it was a good game, and if it ends now, I don't think anybody would complain of it ending too early. I thought it was a great concept for a game. It had balance flaws, but it was designed to work with those flaws to change the dynamics of diplomacy (plus, what forum games DON'T have flaws?).
I loved being the USSR, and I even liked enjoyed off all my neighbours at once. It made me feel extremely powerful (because I was). I even think it was probably the idea for them, as otherwise I would have been amassing Coup Points so fast that it would've been ridiculous. The first year I got 10 (I think) and had enough armies to defend until the next build phase. Kudos to everybody on a game well played!
And many thanks to Waterice Man for having the patience and dedication to GM this awesome variant.
