    Not enough people are pointing out how Dylan continuously robbing orange just for wheat while they were offering to trade is such a bad blunder, especially considering how much of a quick threat black had become.

    When they're completely dead, they have no reason to not just revenge on you, a more BTT approach with efficient trades would've probably been better this game, when you pull the mono early and get such a beautiful setup for it with a settle + city + dev turn you shouldn't loose (also in that turn choosing the Dev over the city can't be right when you pull the knight, you pull and on a non-knifht you pull again, and on a knight you build your city because you already can defend army)

      ​@@Bozomozo- 4-5 years ago I was playing on the now defunct PlayCatan.exe platform, and after placing my second settlement Blue complained that I took his spot. I explained to Blue that I had no other better place to build. My position was claustrophobic, with very few expansion spots. Two turns later Blue built 3 roads and a settlement, taking ALL my expansion spots. I was left with no space to built whatsoever. Blue could built 2 roads instead of 3 and leave me one spot, but he intentionally placed 3 to kill me. He said in the chat: "That's what happens when someone messes with me".
      My winning chances had dropped from 25% to a meager single-digit number, since now mathematically I needed at least 4 VPs to win. What happened next made this game my most memorable. I wasn't going to make any unfair trade with anyone, but my goal was clear, to teach Blue a lesson. Blue came very close to winning. I bought tons of dev cards, but not enough VPs. All my knights and 7s had the same destination. My happiest moment was when Blue traded 9 resources with the bank for 3 ores, and in my turn I played my mono, took his ores and bought more dev cards. After Blue's initial offense, the only thing that I typed in the chat was "gg". That happened when one of the other two players won. I am pretty sure that if Blue is alive today, he still remembers this game. 🙂

      So, for example, imagine I plow someone and say 'oh come on, it was obvious I was going to do it, he should have seen it (thus, he brought it to himself with his placement and he is responsible for my plowing, not me)'. It might be true but it might not be, it depends on the situation. And deep inside we know when it is justified and when it is not. However, by consistently playing this way and always justifying our 'selfish / immoral' decisions (be that plowing, extortion, lying, etc.) in order to feel ok with them, we acquire this bad habit also in real life.

      ​@@armaoskNo worries. I am still trying to make sense of your arguments though. The Settlers of Catan is an inherently selfish and immoral game. Your goal is to be the first to reach 10 points, at which point your are the exclusive winner of the game, and your 3 opponents are the losers. That's selfish. You don't cooperate with the other players towards a common goal. Alliances are britle and short-lived, because eventually if you don't win, you lose. Next, the only way that you can influence the speed of your progression in relation to the other players' progression, is by stealing their resources, blocking their production, and restricting their expansion. That's immoral. If you want to be a moral Catan player you must 1) move always the robber to the desert, 2) monopolize the resource that nobody has and 3) built to the 9 points, wait for all other players to do the same, and then declare the game a draw.
      That's not how this game is intended to be played. At the moment you realize this, phrases like "too much plowing, too much extortion, too much partial truthing" make no sense. From a moral standpoint, ANY amount of robbing, extorting or lying is too much. Would you teach a kid that it's OK to tell at most one lie per day, and steal at most one smartphone per month? Of course not. So regarding kids and Catan, what you can do is to teach them the difference between doing immoral actions in a game and doing immoral actions in real life. Or, if you don't trust their ability to make this distinction, just don't let them play Catan at all.
