Yeah, dunno. Suttree has signaled his friendliness towards mack and his hate towards us during the last 50 turns so maybe we should not be too surprised. It's just pretty disappointing that one decides to gift a city to one party when two civs have their armies next to it. Now the scenario where mack attacks the city, gets bad rolls, loses units, and we can exploit his weakness by taking Barca or some other city was just erased. Mack just got the best city of suttree's empire for free and now suttree can use every single one of his units to hurt us or defend Madrid.
I guess it's an OK tactic to gift half of your civ to one opponent so that you can stop your other neighbor from taking your other half without big losses. It's just really sucks from our perspective and again, if there are 2 armies 1 tile away from a city it's pretty sketchy to gift it away..
