Well, considering how fast Cosmic Encounter plays, you shouldn't see all that many long games anyway... :)
Ooh, I disagree. My experiences with Cosmic Encounter have been wildly unpredictable in terms of how long they've run. Sometimes the Genius gets 20 cards and ends the game in 5 minutes, but sometimes the Shadow keeps on snuffing everybody's foreign colonies when they're about to win. One of our games lasted two and a half hours for that very reason. But it stayed fun the entire time. That's the mark of a masterfully crafted game if you ask me.
