Has anyone figured out the factors for a diplomatic victory and posted a guide? What would be included is (a) the criteria used to determine whether or not an AI will support you for diplomatic victory, (b) the factors that enter determination of the + and - tally in his opiniion of you, how they are initially triggered (many are obvious), and how they change with time and new events. The AI's vote is influenced by his attitude toward you, but (as many have noted) it is not a perfect correlation.
A particular situation that puzzles me. You have the support of almost enough AIs but need the support of one more. How can you tell whether it is hopeless (NOTHING will even possibly bring anyone around), or if not, which is the best AI to woo, and how?
