RE: PBEM -- ''surrender terms''
I would suggest there is another approach to ending a game early.

We already know about:
1.) You can say No Thanks, before both sides have done their 1st move each, and it's like the game never happened at all.
2.) You can click Surrender, and take the AI game result that follows.
3.) You can ''disappear'' after the game is in play, and suffer the consequences.

But there is another alternative, to a game already in play. Maybe you cannot continue for whatever reason (you know you might lose anyway, you know your job got too busy to play regularly, you have lost interest, etc.). Ask your opponent for ''surrender terms'' -- to end the game early, so as to not drag it out forever unnecessarily, but to where you will not lose Totally either. My experience, a stalwart opponent will always offer something less than a Total Loss to you, depending--of course--on just how far into the game you both were already.

There are a lot of gentlemen/good sports playing CM here! ;)
