Every game (except one) I've played here has been to "approximately turn 80" (which means anywhere from turn 81-89 in my experience). Of the active games, only North Star 11 is set up to anything different, not sure if that 90 is a typo or deliberate, only Stefan can answer that.

The North Stars started without an end condition originally. To shorten the discussions, I decided to have them start with a default end condition, like all the other games. I don't know how the difference between NS10 and NS11 came about, but the North Star template now has turn 90. If NS10 develops accordingly, I have no problems with upping the limit.
