Yet Another Whine For Different Reset Conditions

I never thought the Pizza map would ever get reset but what do I know: it was reset last night.  So that means Bishops had several hours where all they could do is uselessly be vulched.  It's been mentioned a bazzillion times before (including by me), but how about increasing the number of fields for reset from the present (zero or one left I think) to say 5 left.  That would not eliminate the "fish-in-the-barrel" time for the losing side, but I believe it might reduce the duration.  One could justify it by pointing out that we now have way more fields, so if reset is defined as a certain percentage of fields left then the reset criteria number should go up ;)  It may be true that in RL wars some go all the way to the loser having less than 10% of its starting terrain before its over but that part of the war is horrifically unpleasant for the losing side and not particularly pleasant for the wining side either.
