ok, if I summarize correctly, we have:

  • Kobrov wants to end (but would keep playing; great sportsmanship!)
  • darkclow wants to continue
  • Iceman (first place in score and ships) wants to end
  • Yggdrasill wants to continue
  • Bjoerndalen (first place in planets) wants to end
  • Sherkhan wants to end

I guess the salomonic decision would be an ending condition that is in the closer future.

Going with the "200 planets" theme, "125 planets" sounds like a sensible goal than. As far as I recall, this very number was also common on for example PlanetsServer, and I wouldn't even go as far as to require "...and keep them for 5 turns", i.e. rush to the planets without caring for sustainability.

Would that be an acceptable compromise?

The second alternative would be to abandon (killrace?) those who want to end, but then probably ending for good would be better.
