I think playing against the ai is a waste of time anyway. Testing things is good. But, playing? You really should pbem. If you don't enjoy it, try again. It could have been an obnoxiuos opp. Very rare though. If the turns are not fast enough, get more games started.
My 2 cents.

Then switched to PBEM for for almost 2 decades.
From memory the last survey conducted on behalf of John Tiller revealed most gamers only play against the AI.
